Gameday Thread, Not Calling It That Edition: TCU vs Baylor

[Rex Kramer]

Glad we won. Wish I could have seen the end. scheiss ESPN.

Go Frogs!

Okay. Just pulled up the replay on the ESPN app. Glad I missed it. I would have had a heart attack watching that ending. Still excited that we came up with the win. Have plenty to take issue with, but a lot to like too.

Did TCU actually pay GP? might want to actually research that before mouthing off...

And I bet our AD can get a few guys together to pay $21mm to get rid of a guy who makes fans think 8-4 and about 6th place is in this really average conference is somehow acceptable....while University of North Texas is in the discussion for making the playoffs

I saw North Texas in person against South Florida. USF has so much more talent than North Texas. Doubtful they will be in the hunt at the end of the season.

Are you new here? Being happy is not possible for so many people on this board. Just not going to happen. We could have won 35-0 and people would be complaining about the lines at the concession stands being too long or something else stupid.

At times we played like a top 25 team. Sadly other times we looked like McLean Middle School. We have to be more disciplined

Now you’re insulting…Paschal.

 

[Mean Purple]

How many future NFL players are on this team? How many on the O-line and D-line?

Funny, you’ve posted that huff before and then we saw guys go to the nfl.

 

[TopFrog]

Liked for the King Crimson reference!

I like April Wine's version better.

I would have stayed for the game but was told I couldn't reenter without an unscanned ticket.

What nonsense considering the situation. There would have been a much bigger crowd at the end if people had been allowed to go to tailgates sit out the weather delay then reenter the stadium.

Having sat out two two hour plus lightning delays while covering high school football games this year, I was pretty sure the delay would be at least hour.

No way, I was standing around that long when I could go to our tailgate or drive home grab a pizza and watch it at home.

I remember in 2013 during the three hour delay during the Texas game, I drove home changed clothes came back parked right next to stadium and reentered no problem. What changed?

 

[The TCU Football Jerk]

5-2 and currently 12th place in the B12.....you are a loser at heart aren't you, just happy we will get to play in the New Mexico or Texas bowl as Tech or BYU take our spot in the playoffs and North Texas has an actual meaningful season as they battle to see if the can be the highest ranked G5....

7th, but who's counting

BYU has to play at Tech and Cincy.

Cincy has BYU then ends the season at TCU.

I think it is very likely a two-conference-loss team plays in the B12 championship.

 

[An-Cap Frog]

I saw North Texas in person against South Florida. USF has so much more talent than North Texas. Doubtful they will be in the hunt at the end of the season.

And Boise State and Memphis and Tulane. Fun fact, TCU faced off against Memphis' QB way back when we opened against Colorado.

 

[Frog Attack II]

yeah - I am a tech tard - you are brilliant.....bud there are more Frogs in my family than anyone on this board - I am just smart enough to know Sonny Dykes is average and has our entire program going in the wrong direction of middle of the road acceptance by our fans and our admin - and you prove me right every week....lets celebrate 12th place in the conference

sorry I think we are actually 8th.....middle of the pack - just like our coach....let's break open the champagne, we have managed to move up to mediocre after beating Baylor

If you are a tech fan, then you have had nothing but a "loser mentality" your whole life.... Pretty rich for a TT fan to be calling out mediocrity on a TCU board.

 

[Wexahu]

loser mentality - says all I need to know about you based on your series of comments.

So like I told you a few weeks ago - fans like you are the problem.

We hired mediocrity and you have been happy to accept it as what the best we can do.

And GP proved for most of his 20 years - that we can do a lot better in the face of people like you saying we should be happy to accept average at best.

Dykes is average at best - thank goodness the clock is only 60 mins even if the game was 6 hours - because the only reason we won is the clock ran out and Baylor had 4 interceptions.

As GP proved…..lol.

Yep, you are exactly what I thought you were. Sorry we won, I know it pissed you off.

 

[An-Cap Frog]

I happen to think that Rhett Lashlee is a good coach. If we fire Sonny at the end of the season, like everyone here says we should (or even right now), and let's just say we all identify Rhett as our target HC, do you really think we can out bid the SEC or the Big 10 for his services?

 

[82 Frog Fever]

Did TCU actually pay GP? might want to actually research that before mouthing off...

And I bet our AD can get a few guys together to pay $21mm to get rid of a guy who makes fans think 8-4 and about 6th place is in this really average conference is somehow acceptable....while University of North Texas is in the discussion for making the playoffs

Impressive! That’s a lot of dumbassery squeezed into a single post.

Per TCU’s IRS filing of Form 990, TCU paid GP $17m in 2021, and his assistants got an additional $1m.
TCU might fire Dykes if the wheels completely fall off, but no one person or group is stepping up to pay $21m in severance, & TCU would not solicit such a donation.

 

[JugbandFrog]

Sonny said it should have handed it off, or made it sound that way.

I did not have a good view of the turnover.

Why is that play even in our playsheet. Hoover has never been a running threat. It’s a waste of time.

 

[Frog Attack II]

Just about everyone on here ( including me) have said that he needs to keep it sometimes.... Just to keep the defense honest. That said, He's got to take care of the ball. And in that situation, it was a poor choice.

Again... Love Hoover and am frustrated by him at the same time... It does make me wonder how much he checks out of plays at the LOS.
