Not if Baylor keeps shooting theirselves in the foot. Win or lose no way TCU belongs in the top 25.

---Maybe not but TCU just won their 11th straight and half of the Baylor players had physical problems and cramps... Baylor wasn't physically prepared to play.

I agree that game was ugly. TCU definitly showed that they were better conditioned in the end but they werent all that impressive on offense. It was one of the most boring games that I've watched in while to boot. Baylors on the road to success. Im sure we have hell with um' this year.

I was at the game and Baylor pretty much shot themselves in the foot. I disagree with the belief that TCU does not belong in the top 25. I was really impressed with the number of fans TCU brought. It was the largest opening game crowd in Baylor history (they don't pad those numbers) and I would estimate conservatively that at least 8000 of the fans were from TCU. I spoke with a TCU fan at George's before the game and when he saw my UNT gear he commented that he went to the game in Austin Saturday. For what it is worth he thought we looked better than the stats showed and said he thought we actually had a pretty good football team. We obviously will be able to put the game against UT in perspective next week when UT plays OSU and we play SMU. How does 96 yards vs the UT defense compare to SMU's 180 some yards against the TT defense? We will soon find out.

From the TCU games that I have watched in the past few seasons, this was a pretty classic example of how they play. They are always well coached and conditioned. They never really break a game open but always manage to stay in it at the same time.

Oh I know I go to TCU games regularly. Coach P. does what it takes to win. I just expected a little more than 17-10 against Baylor. That was the same as the game against OU last year. Baylors Defense might really be that good. Time will tell.

      IF we have to keep Morris 🤢

      I can’t get over how the offense just dies all of a sudden. As soon as they lose (or can’t establish) a rhythm they’re obsolete for an entire quarter and a half. (Ex: Memphis when the defense actually held and made them go 3 and out multiple times before the flood gates opene; Army when they couldn’t do anything the whole game; ECU and the abysmal 3rd quarter; heck even against Tulane they were only up by like 3 before the end of the half and got super lucky with multiple short field positions due to mistakes). The statistics for the offense feels hollow. Super explosive but no capability to sustain a slow, clock bleeding drive. Which means short time of possession and longer time for the defense to be out there. I guess live by the air raid, die by the air raid. (And they’ve been consistently dying)

      ****OFFICIAL ECU vs UNT IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      S.O.S. We made too many mistakes…we didn’t play complimentary football…had our chances…I could’ve called a better play to help us out…defense gave up too much…blah blah blah. It’s the same excuses he puts out there the past 5-6 weeks. Seems to me that all goes back to coaching. All of this is a product he created with his environment and culture. This is what you get when you have a coach that’s inexperienced and doesn’t know how to get out of funks. No proper adjustments and make the same mistakes over and over and over again.

      What’s up with DT Sheffield?

      Didn't he come in a play or two after the DPI call on the 3rd down pass to Conwright? I agree with you though that it was bizarre. I was searching for him on the sidelines and wondering why he wasn't in the game. It's a complete head-scratcher even after sleeping on it.

      Honest tactical question here…

      100% yes. This is the Achilles’ heel of the air raid system. To win consistently with the air raid, a deep defensive bench is needed to keep fresh legs on the field. Otherwise while the offense is high flying, the defense is absolutely gassed come the 3rd and 4th quarters. No disrespect to Mike Leach but I’m over the air raid system. I want to see us run the ball, dominate the line of scrimmage, control the clock, and allow our defense time to rest so they can in turn make stops. This is complimentary football.
