We'll probably lose.  The odds are stacked against us going undefeated.  Okie state lost to Iowa st last year at night in November in a game everyone assumed they would win easily.

i figured there was a good reason he dodged the question.  WOOF!

CBSSports Conference power ranking had MWC and Big 12 neck and neck in 2010. Big 12 is consistently over rated. Look at this year. Ou JV is 3-3 in this and dominated in 2 of the 3 losses. We have played the three top offenses in the conference and held them all considerably below their averages. My, my what a week in week out nightmare. If we hadn't lost our QB we would be 8-0 without breaking a sweat. Thems the breaks though. We're gonna wreck this joint when we have a full Varsity roster again starting next year.

I get it, he's trying to troll us you guys.

[kso_FAN]

little worried about their qb running around, is he the most dynamic we've faced?

I kinda forgot how pud and unathletic the B12 QBs are until just now.

ISU's guy isn't a lot different. TCU runs the QB a bit more, but Barnett has better numbers.

Obviously Boykin has running ability, but he hasn't really hurt any opponents by running that much. Since he's been playing a lot, he doesn't have a game with a better average than 3.5 ypc.

I agree that the plane crash is the main reason they lost.  And because their defense was really shitty and they had no business being ranked #2.

T's & P's for your team, and T-Y for giving up three days before the game.  Might want to ask Touchdown Jesus for some help.

I know that Zacker is gonna Zack, but Boykin has averaged 2.29 yards per carry in conference games.  And he has a grand total of two rushing TD's on the year (one in Big 12 play). 

[Mixed-Nutz]

yes.  most since RG3 last year.  i think we are going to have some issues with him.  can't just rely on making them "one dimensional" because he's always 2 dimensional.

Won't be a problem TCU's offensive line is really bad. Like really really bad, their QB odeeeing is the best thing to ever happened to them, Because they run a lot more zone read now releasing their tackles to the second level thus hiding their shitty line. We did this last year when are O-line was marginal. When TCU has/tries to pass the ball we will get to the QB.

Yep, prolly gonna win every game by 9 wkts next year.

We have played the three top offenses in the conference

^^OMG that's hypnotizing.   

[K-S-U-Wildcats!]

I know score comps are weak sauce, but TCU and KSU have five common conference opponents so far (KU, ISU, TT, OSU, and WVU). Against those teams, TCU's combined points scored/allowed is 149/173 (-24). Ours is 237/105 (+132). So I feel pretty good about this.

Pretty sure this is the first time we've played a team with more than one conference loss this year.

Gary ruined Boise’s undefeated season a couple of years ago (@ Boise).

Anybody can do that.

You are correct sir.

What a bunch of losers.

TCU has never won a Big XII home game.  rough ridin' pathetic if you ask me, like up there with KU pathetic.

[American Standard]

Lots of teams have good defensive stats before they play us.  TCU hasn't played us yet.  Simple really.

Cats by 21

You guys gained 364 yds vs ISU. We had 450+ with our Freshman QB starting his first game. He was listed at RB that Wednesday.

We gained a road W against ISU. You lost to ISU at home. Congrats on ur yardage, though.

care to breakdown the comparative stats against KU, Tech, OSU, WVU???

Defensively we were superior in all but WVU but we were more than adequate against them. Tech had 313 at the end of regulation versus 442+ versus you guys. Turnovers.

As I said in my initial post, if we don't turn the ball over I think you can say good night to NC dreams. One or maybe two, depending where on the field, and it is a toss up. If we go 5 like versus KU and ISU we can forget about it. I think Boykin showed good poise last week and is understanding the offense better every week. OL is getting healthy and Maponga looked good coming back from his foot injury. I think we will be the fastest D you see this year.

I hope your team is as confident as you guys. We've heard it every week including KU, Baylor, etc. Line appears to be TCU +8. The number 2 team versus an unranked "mid major" is only -8? Everyone outside the Big bad 12 seems to understand what you are getting into.

TCU has 18 turnovers in 6 conference games, including 3 last week.

[wes mantooth]

to TCU's credit, they've came back pretty good after receiving the death penalty

[p1k3]

We've heard it every week

yeah. So have we.

[Dugout DickStone]

How will they react to some big boy football?  I bet they soil themselves and their QB gets smashed on mouthwash.

with the exception of ku I don't recall being favored by more than 7 against any conference foe.What part of Vegas betting don't you understand ? no wait I'll answer that,all of it

[Bookcat]

I"m way more woried about Baylor's offense than these puds.

Also, wrong shade of purple, ladies.
