Shout out to Any LSU Fans Here

This is a big shout out to any LSU fans that might be hanging out here. TCU fans are excited to be playing LSU, although most would have preferred a home and home mix, to really experience tailgating and a game at Tiger Stadium.
In '95, TCU was kicked to the curb from the SWC, ran to the WAC, traded up for Conference USA, and was asked to join the Mountain West Conference. At each stop TCU won conference championships and bested teams like Clemson, Oklahoma at home, Boise State at home, and Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl.
So TCU fans understand 40 years of losing seasons and tend to be thankful for our head coach who brought TCU back from irrelevance. Cannot say enough good things about Coach Patterson and his staff.
Hopefully the TCU fans you meet love football, have a humble attitude, and are great to hang out with at a tailgate. LSU is clearly an elite team and it's exciting to get a chance to play the Tigers, to see how the frogs measure up against the best.
Great coaching, a solid defensive scheme and an outstanding strength and conditioning program have helped TCU compete with two and three star athletes and finally land in the Big 12.
The 7-6 season last year was a disappointment for many, for wins and losses, but moreso for the drug issues that tarnished TCU's reputation. Most fans believe Coach Patterson did the right thing by kicking off every player that sold drugs and suspending Casey Pachal from the team for the season plus treatment, rather than just a one or two game suspension, after his DUI.
We were disappointed in Casey, but hopeful that he's turned things around and will be a poster child for grace and redemption. Doing the right thing is important to most TCU fans, so you probably won't find many TCU fans demanding that Fields play. The fans trust the coach to do the right thing, Fields getting it right trumps football.
We typically don't play well in early games, our offensive line did not hunt well together last year, many fans thought the offensive calls were horrible, but after losing our QB and best RB, any offensive plays were going to be a challenge.
We've lost several players recently, one transferred to another school, a DB quit, and we lost on offensive linesman due to injury. Last year we played youngest in the nation; we're hopeful some of that playing time will pay off this year, with OL and DB most questionable.
The year before we had 15 players in summer conditioning, according to the coach, just about the entire team put in the time this summer. Obviously, there's alot of respect for LSU by TCU coaches, players and fans.
Because of strength and conditioning, TCU players may surprise many here for endurance. Unfortunately, playing in heat is no advantage against LSU. TCU recruits speed and athleticism, and has a 5 star RB, actually several really good RB, but team speed is probably not at LSU's level.
It will be interesting to see TCU's gameplan against a much superior, elite team like LSU and whether TCU's S&C will hold up during the game.
Given a clean, hard-fought game, I will be cheering on LSU every game this season. Except on August 31. Good luck and may the best team win.
