TCU receiver Jack Bech was named MVP of the Senior Bowl after catching a crucial touchdown, one month after the tragic loss of his brother Tiger in New Orleans. Wearing his brother's No. 7, Bech caught a 2-yard pass from Memphis quarterback Seth Henigan, securing a 22-19 victory for the American Team with only seconds remaining. He expressed that his brother’s spirit motivated him during the game, revealing a deeply emotional connection and the impact of his loss on his performance. Bech's six receptions for 68 yards highlighted his talent ahead of the NFL draft.
"Man, it's simple: My brother has some wings on me. He gave them to me, and he let that all take place. My lord and savior, Jesus Christ. Tiger. Nothing else but them. They're the reason I did what I did today. I attribute it all to them."
"It's been surreal just to be able to come and take place in this game. It's a goal that you set for yourself. But if I had the option that if I came here, had the worst week ever, ruined my draft stock and that means I could give my brother a hug right now, you know I would take that."
