Poot smut. Even their cousin in Ft. Worth doesn't want them.

So for a post taking a jab at SMU, you felt the need to add a jab at UNT😕

[outoftown]

I know we folks here never feel for SMU. But it is the same for them as it would be for UNT if the series with SMU got cancelled. The sport would be the loser, but if UNT starts winning that series on the regular, mean green fans will still want to continue the series (I assume SMU fans will be more split). But given all the loss of regionality from the sport, I deplore the loss of such rivalries even more.

On that notion, TCU will be travelling a lot more starting in 24. Something has me thinking that once they made that expereince for a few years, they will eventually come back on the idea of having a very regional game they can play every year. It doesn't have to be SMU though, could be UNT, or even Tulsa.

Very true. We get upset when things like this happen to us, but it's a different story when it's another school or even us thinking we shouldn't play other regional FBS schools.

I was just alerted by Jennifer Aniston that she is indefinitely pausing any chances I have of dating her.

Is there any more to this story?  Seems like TCU is making this decision unilaterally.  This is a long-standing annual matchup, there has to be more going on here.

We beat them 2 of the last 3 years, plus they have had NIL shortages and we stole some great players from them.  It only hurts them to play us and only benefits us.

In short: they are scared.

I thought you were going to your new conference, bye/

[Rudy]

Yeah, they sure were scared of you when they got your coach to dump you (wasn't hard), and went to the national championship game.

2 losses in 3 years didn't keep them out of the national title game.

Maybe you mean that 3rd loss will do them in?

You, me, and TCU all know they made that game from phenomenal luck.  They are good but not that good. They are absolutely vulnerable in recruiting now in the B12 sans UT and OU.  They will continue to lose conference prestige and they will need to stay razor sharp to combat that. Having us be a legitimate recruiting competitor is only bad for them.

typical pony troll trash talk, man. Bye

[LongJim]

Yes.  After 100 years, TCU has just discovered that they are afraid of SMU.

Dude, you can't be be fking serious?  

 

Look, I get that you guys are trolling, desperate and crave approval, but this is just next level stupid. 

 

I hate Texas u with every fiber in my body, but even I wouldn't say that tu wasn't "that good" when they made the title game with Vince Young. 

 

Please, just stop. Or at the very least, go back to your own board with your own kind.

They made the title game. STILL

You’re getting laughed out of this thread. Just take the L and stay off this thread.

I see a program that has capitalized on every opportunity afforded them the last 20+ years, with rare exception

when the B12 loses its prestige without UT- OU, and it will, I have zero doubt that TCU will figure out how to properly act next.

can’t say the same for the Ponies, as we all see only bring lawyer money to the table. People are taking their cash and letting you sit in the corner of the same rooms, while you have won zero hardware since the 1980s.

I bet y’all are thanking the CFB Gods for NIL: it’s your only hope.

They can't.  Several of them have been laughed out of threads, at times even burning themselves.  However, they keep at it and continue to embarrass themselves.  It's a sickness, really.

They rose to the top of the CFB world and appeared in the CFP title game, and all of a sudden they're afraid of SMU.

That's his logic.  TCU, however, sees something SMU doesn't, due to newfound perspective, and is trimming excess lawyer fat out of their healthy CFB diet.

Yes. That's literally what I'm saying and why they cancelled. We don't benefit them, only potentially hurt them.
