TCU earned its first road victory of the season Saturday with a 28-7 win over Arkansas. Here's some things you might have missed postgame from head coach Gary Patterson:

On what beating a SEC team means for the Big 12:

"I wish everybody would quit talking about the Big 12 and SEC. It was TCU and Arkansas. We went on the road and beat Arkansas. We've got to go on the road and do it again next week."

On TCU's defense:

"You have to play hard on first down and third down. You've got to get three-and-outs and takeaways."

"We rotated eight to nine guys. That's why it was important to us. We knew that on every three plays we would rotate all four defensive linemen at a time."

"You're going to have to play in red zone in our league. We worked hard on that in the offseason and two-a-days, and that's one of things we did good [Saturday]. We didn't panic, and we got off the field."

On quarterback Kenny Hill:

"I've got to watch the film, but any time you win on the road, you come closer to having a complete [team]. There are a lot of different areas [of the team] that made the difference [Saturday]."

On TCU's matchup with SMU next week:

"We're going to get ready for SMU and we're going to go on with our lives. They have good players. And that's always a tough ballgame."
