Gameday Thread: Frogs and Cougars in H-Town

[helcap]

Good ending for the defense with the interception.

No offensive tds allowed the last 2 games. Maybe there's hope for us.

Reading the posts here one would think the Defense gave up 28 points

Base, true...just call it agreesive like the last three quarters and you're good.

Will that work all game? Lol I’m too stupid to know. But I’d take my chances with the risks it poses all day. Bitching aside lots more to like in this game than last game. If we incrementally improve we might even surprise and win a game or 2 we shouldn’t!

Fans were worried about winning game we were favored by 7. Win by 23. Fans complain. Need to grow up people. Could have been prettier, yes...but that would have just meant a 40 point win. Either way, no reason to complain.

And 564 yards

We'll be back in the Top 25...so that matters.

Yeahhhh, I wouldn’t be so sure of that…

It looked mediocre in first half. Their had like 15 drops that would have added over 150 yards. Including that TD. 2nd half was much improved!

Agreed...I actually think D played good for three quarters. Just think we have a tendancy to sit back in soft coverage to start all games. No reason for it IMO.

Anyone complaining about this performance…..SMH.

Any time you beat a conference opponent by 23 points on the road, it’s good.

TCU 36
HOU 13

Final

See you at home at 11 am next week for SMU...last possible Iron skillet for a while

Thanks for the PBP while I was in Abilene!

The National runner up’s didn’t do it last year. Only beat one team on the road by more…Colorado by 2 additional points.

I'll complain that adding Houston to the Big 12 isn't going to help this conference much. First P5 conference game and so many empty seats.

Bottom line: Win games you’re supposed to win. At this point in the season, learn and get better next week. 2-1. Let’s get to 3-1.

If we clean up the little things we can still have a good year. The talent is there. 3rd most talented team in the Big 12. Just seems like we lack in fundamentals

That's what made our team good last year... we did the little things

I was surprised by this. I know the weather was bad earlier but still

Good job on the play by play @NathanRoman.

Dykes needs to earn his money and coach his coaches on improving these fundamentals.

He also needs to get on Briles’ rear about the inconsistency in the playcalling

Houston as a city has always been meh unless the teams are winning.

Team last year had been together for many years. This team needs to gel. They can and should get better, but lots of talent there and the coordinators can do better.

Other than some key concessions running out early, acceptable gameday experience at TDECU. Feels much like McClane I thought. The sun setting over the city skyline is nice.

Glad to have TCU road games half an hour from home. Also glad to not sweat out a Big 12 game and win comfortably.
