[QUOTE="ThisIsOurTime, post: 2593768, member: 5887"] GP has always been a coach that has tried to limit his risk. This makes sense considering his background as defensive minded coach. I think he would still have this opinion if he was the coach of Ohio State or another big state u. This is not a reflection of TCU but a reflection of him. He is not alone either, I believe Mack Brown had similar concerns about playing Ohio State when he was at UT and they moved away from such matchups after their home and home as a result. With regard to scheduling, TCU is always going to be at a bit of a disadvantage in scheduling home and homes with traditional powers because our stadium size is smaller than other P5 teams. Even when we get one setup with like LSU, it later gets switched to a 1 game at a neutral site. They would probably be better served going with a 1:1:1 (home, away and neutral) games. We probably won't see the home and home situation change too much unless we see the school choose to expand to 20,000 students or so and thereby create the ability to fill say a 70,000+ seat stadium. And I don't see this being very likely any time soon either. [/QUOTE]
