TCU men’s basketball aiming to keep winning streak rolling against Notre Dame

By Steven Johnson

What a difference a month makes.

In early November, many around Fort Worth wrote TCU men’s basketball off after the Horned Frogs were shocked in the season opener by New Orleans and lost starting center Malick Diallo for the rest of the season.

Would it be a second straight season without an NCAA Tournament appearance for coach Jamie Dixon and TCU? Many assumed so.

Bummed that this game is only on ESPN+.

Glad I haven't canceled it yet (got it for CFB season).

If you want to watch TCU sports you need to keep it.

It comes with Hulu+Live.

This one is going to be fun. ESPN's matchup predictor likes us tonight. I hope they're onto something.

Come on man, where is everyone? What does everyone have going on that beats this game? I am tired tired tired of seeing these sorry crowds.

Buncha garbage season ticket holders never showing up is a part of the problem. Stop holding tickets to sell.

ND comes out pretty solid, thankfully so did our 3 point shooting. 13-13 early. Irish are doing some odd skip passing in weird rotations, seems they studied our defense.

 

[satis1103]

Under 12 TO, 18-18. ND basically forcing us to live at the 3 point line. Which we've done well, for now. Theyre frequently doubling Harding as he tries to initiate. Gotta be less one dimensional on offense and be our normal selves on defense, which seems a little weak atm.

Who’d buy?
Other than at a big discount.
Easy ticket. Sparse crowd.

Really nice pass inside by Toolson to Punch for the punch.

They don't sell every game. They make their money back with a handful of conference games and Michigan.

Edit/Add: and you already know what team's jersey the fans they sell the tickets to wear. That's why it's all Rock Chalk and Raider power in here in those games.

Very nice pass. He's had one, Edmonds has had one.

27-23 us, our 2nd team looks stronger than theirs by a hair. Depth might be our biggest strength. Defense looking better. 7:56 H1

 

[satis1103]

Suuuuure would be nice to keep this little stretch going. We've owed these guys something nasty since the 80s.

36-25 appx 5:30 left H1

 

[AroundWorldFrog]

11 point lead. Nice!

 

[The Artist Formerly Known as PhormerPhrog]

Notre Dame appears to recruit the Arian community very well.

 

[KillerFrog InD KitchenSink]

Shooting well so far. So many guys can hit the three. Rebounding still an issue, especially offensive rebounds. 4-1 in OR.

 

[TopFrog]

Frogs the better team.

 

[Big Frog II]

Fun game so far

 

[satis1103]

Might be our best shooting game so far this year and ND is still hanging around, which is a testament to them. They were tough against previously-undefeated Mizzou the other night.

45-36 Frogs at half.

 

[froglash88]

Bad night for TCU reviews

 

[satis1103]

Anyone watching on TV or listening on radio know any updates about ND #3? That looked like a very concerning injury.
