I've honestly really only gotten to see Tcu play once. That was the Fiesta Bowl. I just came away unimpressed honestly. Sure they had some good players littered on the field out there, but as a whole I just didn't think they were that impressive.

Classic!

I think there will be many that will either be genuinely surprised, or looking for a plausible excuse in defense of Wisconsin when TCU leaves with a Rose Bowl Trophy.

No. He is just a fan of a team that thinks they are better than they really are. Happens ALL the time on here.

Sorry I haven't been around to give my 2 cents, which is really worth a dollar.

Comparing teams at the beginning of the year is an interesting way of doing it. Wisky played those OOC games before they started doing what they are doing, while TCU almost lost 2 weeks ago

I know I may be wearing the big 6 blinders but this Wisky O-line is one of the best i've ever seen; they dominate the line on 8 of 10 plays and make every one of their 3 RBs look good.

Oh, and that's not even getting into their passing game. BTW Tolzien is completing 74%...let me say that again 74% of his passes in a big-time conference with countless corners and safeties who are going to be playing on Sundays.

I really like TCU, and think they would beat some of the teams in the top 10, but i feel this is a bad matchup for them

Actually as far as I am concerned this is the best draw TCU could have got. Facing a team that has seemed to peak as the season has progressed with a smash mouth football mentality. A team who ran up the score shamelessly against inferior opponents to bolster it's supporters and rank. A team whose fans and players will underestimate TCU. A team who has proven even relatively poor temas can score on them. A team recieving national recognition and touted as "possibly the best team in the nation despite their record".

The only way TCU will earn their respect is on the field and a less aclaimed opponent would be useless.

Bring it.

This season, no. That is why this will be a good matchup.

When you stil have starters in and throwing passes when you are up by 40 late in third, that is running up the score.

And your convienent first excuse when Wisky loses.

Wisky did not shut out anyone even Austin Peay and UNLV, SJSU, NW, Minn, Purdue, and Indiana hung a total of 113 pts on them, despite big disparities in turnover margins and time of posession.
