Just heard this also. Here's what he said word for word
"I think TCU is ranked too high, I think that it's just based on the credibility of who they are, as a program. I think Boise State is right about where they should be. They keep losing players but Peterson keeps proving ... "
Oops, just changed channels and lost the playback
But he then goes on and says if they beat Georgia there is no one else on their schedule that can stop them.
I hate hearing his voice. Just a bunch of hot air.

Considering our personnel losses a ranking of 14 is a massive vote of confidence for this program. Compare that to just a few years ago when we never appeared in the early polls. But no chance to win a game that won't happen until the second week of November? Does Herbie know for absolute certain that Kellen Moore isn't going to be injured? Or that TCU's offensive line is definitely not going to improve at all? November is a long way off yet. My money is always on GP's teams to gradually improve.

Herbie is a dewsher. Will be nice when the Frogs show him how overranked they are.

Believe he said that all last year too
Agree w/ SSD. Our OL appears to be suspect according to several reports, including one today. When I watched Notre Dame the past several years and UT last year, they struggled along the OL more than probably anywhere else. I haven't seen the team since I left the Rose Bowl, so I'm only going off of what the writers say.

Put it on the bulletin board. We have lots of other business to take care of before then, but I have a gut feeling the frogs are going to give the broncos their first lost on the smurf in more than forever. Never underestimate the potential of a Gary Patterson led team with a chip on their shoulder.

again.....I don't see the "gap" between Boise & Tcu?
Am I wearing purple shades? I'd say our rb's (I know they have Martin), wr's, lb's, kicking units are all better......maybe dl are even, I'll give them OL, QB & cb.
I mean, d&mn where's the respect, falling from #2???
We beat the #5 team who is now #10 this preseason? Boise's beats us in fiesta and starts #3 last year, hmmm

Disagree. It's about respect for the program. Nobody has proven anything yet. Consider that TCU's 12 spot drop from end of season last year to this preseason ranking is one of the biggest drops along with big drop by turmoil-ridden Auburn, which dropped 21, and turmoil-ridden Ohio State dropped 13. No other drops are anywhere close to those three. Also consider that Wisconsin, who we beat in the Rose Bowl, also lost Tolzien, Watt, Clay, Carimi, and Moffitt, and they dropped four, from 7 to 11.
Maybe Herbie is just upset that TCU is ranked ahead of Ohio State preseason.

Group of 5-6 hookers that he may or may not have dispatched with Craig James.

Aren't all preseason rankings based on the credibility of the program? It's not like they have any real game data to work with. One losing season in the last 13 years proves that we reload better than most.

He could be right.
He could be wrong.
I don't really care what he thinks.
Nobody really knows. We have lots of new players that haven't done a thing.
However, I would NOT bet against Patterson.

I won't give them Corner. We will be very strong.
