[QUOTE="TxFrog1999, post: 2612987, member: 322"] The OU game in '05 was one of many stepping stones laid during those "wilderness years" that got us into the P5 club. If we don't win in '05 how different is TCU and the Big XII today? This game, when we win, will certainly give us a boost—I don't dispute that—but will it lead to the same elevation of the program as that '05 win? Hard to say, but looking back and seeing how big of a win that was for Patterson and TCU it's hard to place this game on the same pedestal. Now, I might be proven wrong and this game catapults TCU into the playoffs (assuming we win the B12) and future national success, but we're already one of the consistent top 10 teams in the nation and I doubt beating Ohio State without their coach would suddenly bestow Blue Chip status to the Frogs (even though our program historically is a Blue Chip) which is the only level of perception I think w're lacking (in the media).
