11 games in a roll. Eleven conference games in a row. That was a weary, beat-up team that barely lost to KSU on Saturday. I don't want to have to rely on such luck in keeping our main players healthy in 2023. But as Jim Carey says in Dumb and Dumber: "there is a chance."
Our three non-conference games are Colorado, NIcholls, bye-week (Sept 16). SMU. A lot like last year, giving the conference schedule makers another chance to have TCU play 10 or 11 straight games to end the season.
Lucky there are three teams on our schedule and in our new conference who have an opening on Sept 16: Baylor, Houston and... SMU who has an off week after playing OU. Can't help from seeing SMU wanting to bet out of playing on the 16th, which both gives them a rest and screws TCU. Baylor may or may not add a game on the 16th. So hopefully we will be "rewarded for this great season by playing Houstin in week three and get our bye date after 6-8 games.
Just not another Bataan Death March season, thank you.
BTW I see a very different looking TCU team in the Fiesta bowl than the weary one in the B12 Championship! A game 5 Duggan would have scored that OT touchdown standing up. Davis would have returned punts. ETC, etc.
