Seven Years Ago Today

[Prince of Purpoole]

Nevada beat Boise State to send TCU to the Rose Bowl. Relive the glory and joy...

I’ll be most of us remember where we were while watching this happen. Good times - thanks for finding this

Whole house was asleep. I woke all of them up. Probably the neighbors too.

Remember Patterson talking about how the front desk got a lot of complaints that night from TCU players going nuts. Can’t remember who it was from here that bought roses and took them to the New Mexico game the next day

 

[TxFrog1999]

Remember watching that live thinking after that long catch with a second left that we got screwed again. The utter shock and eventual elation I felt after that missed FG is something I'll never forget.

Thanks Kyle.

 

[Pharm Frog]

Was in the place I’m presently leaving — FIL house in Lamesa. Made hotel reservations in Pasadena immediately

 

[Moose Stuff]

This is turning into a disaster for Brotzman. #understatement

 

[ECoastFrog]

THIS is why college fb is sooooo much better than NFL.

 

[Prince of Purpoole]

The Princess and I stayed up late and watched this thing. We went absolutely nuts when Nevada won. Opened a bottle of champagne and started planning he trip to Pasadena.

Was so late at night. I ran outside and yelled at the top of my lungs. Then bought tix to LA.

 

[Chico Dusty]

I was at a bar in Atlanta and saw the highlights flash on the screen and couldn’t believe it. I was going nuts. Had some celebratory shots. Great night.

 

[Pure Purple]

Sometimes it just pays to be lucky!!

Didn't Kyle miss another on the blue turf against us the next year? That dude cost them two chances at a national title.

God Bless Him.

 

[Fred Garvin]

Ah, remembering the time when I flat out loved Colin Kaepernick. That was the luckiest win in TCU history and it wasn't even our game.

Didn't you get the word from Austin? The last 5 wins against tu were the luckiest in TCU history.

 

[BrewingFrog]

Mrs. Brewingfrog and I watched Boise take the lead, and threw in the towel. We hit the sack and slept nicely... Until some far more dedicated Frogs woke us hours later with a phone call that I really couldn't figure out for all the yelling.

Upon understanding what all the hubbub was about, we got up, turned on the TV, and savored some fine booze while watching the highlights.

God Bless Him.

No, that was a DIFFERENT inept Boise kicker, Dan Goodale.

Of note though, remember when we beat Boise 17-16 in 2008? A certain kicker named Brotzman missed a short field goal in the fourth in that game as well.

 

[Hoosierfrog]

Wasn’t Kaepernick the QB for Nevada?
