FWST: Is a win over Oklahoma enough to salvage TCU’s season?

[Krötenechse]

No

 

[AroundWorldFrog]

Salvage??? Not even close. But it would give us some much needed optimism/momentum going forward. Especially if it was followed by a bowl win.

Seems like we had lots of optimism/momentum starting the year. What a waste.

 

[Frog-in-law1995]

No

Username checks out.

Would it help take some of the pain away from this rotten letdown? Yes.
Would it give us some momentum to build on for next year? Yes.
Will it happen? Not a chance. OU has a lot to play for, too. They got a good scare from a really bad BYU team last week. No way they overlook us....unfortunately.
We're feeling good because we beat BU. However, BU is really, really bad. Glad for the win. Glad for Hoover. Most of the same stupid mistakes are still happening.

 

[Strat Frog]

Can’t believe we still couldn’t run block against a woeful BU team that was giving up 5 yards a carry before the game…

Salvage definition: Rescue from loss at sea.

 

[BrewingFrog]

No.

 

[HG73]

No.

I got it straight from the dictionary.

Sorry, I was replying to the OP's question. You, sir, are completely correct, whilst I was merely trying to emulate Brevity Frog...

 

[ShreveFrog]

OU is as beatable as UT was.

 

[TopFrog]

Salvage, as in recovering a wreck and getting something from it, yes.

 

[SoonerFrogs]

It’s going to be a bendover in Norman

 

[KillerFrog InD KitchenSink]

Heck yes it would salvage the season. 6-6 hopefully 7-6 with 4 close losses and decent returning production will give a fair amount of momentum into next year. We’d be a popular bounce back candidate and probably at the top 4 in preseason polls. Would be an easy sell in recruiting too- “tough year, a little unlucky but persevered through tough times and still on track”.

 

[Fosterpark Squatter]

We're not beating OU.

If they keep playing like they have since the Red River Shootout and the Frogs play like they did last week I like our chances.

That’s not your old avatar bud. Explain ??

 

[Toad Jones]

Shock the Boomers & go win the bowl game. 7-6 ain’t great, but ending the season with a winning record & 3 wins in a row can build momentum for 2024.

The reason why so many Frog fans want us to flame out in Norman & get embarrassed on Black Friday is they believe that will force Sonny to fire his OC & DC. I hate to break it to everyone but we could lose 50-0 & nothing is going to change. Sonny - just like GP - is not going to fire his buddies.

Pretty hard to FORCE any coach into such ideas. There will be NO firings this year. (pretty good source)
Esp if they're showing improvement and are.

Improvement?

Yeah, beating arguably the worst team in the conference is the barometer for what it takes to beat OU.

Plus second half against Texas. Also Cincy is the worst this season.

OU is as beatable as UT was.

And we didn’t, and we won’t.
