Gameday Thread: TCU vs Cal

[OmniscienceFrog]

Nice bit of mo to come out of the half with.

 

[Chongo94]

I mean does it honestly matter who our starting running back is?

This coaching staff won’t realize they actually have a running game in any game until the second half anyway.

 

[PurplFrawg]

I'd be elated if we could get to half at 19-14 and get the ball to start the 2nd half.

From your lips...

 

[Sweat Equity]

Evans looking NFL ready. Can we stop with the whole co-starter thing. He’s RB1.

Yah. Guy is a beast.

 

[TX_Krötenechse]

Obviously I’m always rooting for TCU and want us to win and I get excited when we score.

at the same time part of me is a little disappointed. I feel like there might be some value in getting blown out by an average P12 team and even in having a losing season, because it forces Gary to actually evaluate his team, coaches, etc. I can easily see us limping to 7-5 with a bowl win and Gary thinks “good enough” and nothing will change or improve.

 

[JugbandFrog]

Evans should get the ball 40 times a game.

 

[Froggy Style]

Let’s go!

Evans showing the coaches who the true starter is.


Coaches still gonna start Demercado when he gets back.

Only if Sewo not available.

[ Finebaum ]ty half behind us! Time to settle down and roll this second half!!

Let’s go boys!!

 

[TxFrog1999]

If not for the pick 6 TCU would be ahead in this game. Hopefully the coaches feed Evans in the second half and the D figures out how to give Caeser over the top help to stop the deep ball (and it would be nice if the DL got pressure).

 

[Ranidaphobia]

Hopefully it is nothing but Zach just headed to the locker room. Hopefully just needs an IV or something. He was jogging up the ramp.

He hit his head hard after the TD tackle, also wasn't really up to celebrate afterwards. I'm a little concerned, he's the key to winning this game.

 

[FinanceFrog]

we are lucky to only be down 5. what a terrible half.

He never will because the AD will never make him. Just like the AD has done squat with the other coaches. ADJD is letting the program burn.

Depends on what he/she/ye identifies as at the time of the interview. Gotta keep the HR Sales Prevention Office happy.

you saying meacham is a diversity hire?

This is what you get as long as CGP is the HC. He’s very content.

 

[bmoney214]

Well that was certainly an entertaining second quarter.

 

[Big Frog II]

Can’t believe we are within 5.

Kill is talking to position coaches. Kinda makes me nervous.

can he do any more damage than what we saw for the first 20 minutes or so of that half?

 

[Pharm Frog]

Possible

Get what you’re saying, but it seems like we’ve whiffed in the past when we really needed to evaluate and make changes.

Is that a challenge?
