Love the way TCU has been able to compete with the big boys with lesser talent. They are very well-coached.

TCU tends to sellout vs. the run. The normally employ 3 safety's (or glorified LB's), plus they emphasize pressure on the QB with different looks. Good passing teams can throw against them with success and it helps open running lanes as a result.

I don't see LSU having success running the ball on them in the first half. I hope that Mett can deliver or we will see the same stacked defenses we saw last year.

i believe our passing game is good enough to burn the shite out of them if they sell out against the run. this isn't '09. we have a very good OL.

With lack of depth they lost 6 games. They wouldnt have made a bowl if they played in the sec.

Look TCU isnt as talented as say Texas or OU or a lot of the sec schools, but they are no slouch. They constantly had higher rated classes than any other school in their conference. Now that they will play teams that have more talent, they will struggle unless they can start stealing kids from the other texas schools to put them over the edge of some of the other big 12 teams.

They Just had the #30, 37 and 26 ranked class. They were actually more talented then a lot of the big 12 teams, yet lost 6 games.

You had UT, OU, and WVU with higher ranked class in 2013.

UT, OU, Ttech, OSU with higher rated class in 2012.

UT, OU, Ttech in 2011.

UT, OU, WVU, Ttech, OSU in 2010.


Patterson has shown absolutely nothing to prove he is a better coach than Les Miles. He has made a rep off of beating inferior teams.
