Shawn Robinson impresses as TCU routs Southern, 55-7

FORT WORTH, Texas _ Shawn Robinson accounted for five touchdowns, Michael Collins threw for another one and the No. 16 TCU Horned Frogs had little trouble in a 55-7 victory over Southern on Saturday at Amon G. Carter Stadium.

Robinson, the Frogs' sophomore quarterback, started and played in the first half. He completed 17 of 24 passes for 182 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions. Robinson also rushed for TDs of 36 and nine yards on his only two carries.

Backup Michael Collins replaced Robinson at quarterback in the second half, and threw for one touchdown. Collins connected with TreVontae Hights for a 57-yard touchdown in the third quarter.

Southern, a SWAC school from Baton Rouge, La., scored its only touchdown in the second quarter when Cameron Mackey got behind the TCU secondary and hauled in a pass from John Lampley for a 55-yard score.
