Gameday Thread (not sponsored by Guiness): TCU vs. UNC in Ireland!

[TxFrog1999]

Football is back as the Frogs kick off week zero in Ireland as TCU takes on new-new UNC. Will the team's four leaf clover helmets bring them luck or will the season end as quickly as the Star-Telegram's credentials?

Programming note: Due to being asked to teach a class this weekend (which is just about to start) I wasn't able to make the trip across the pond, so Nathan will be providing play-by-play coverage here in the forum.

Location: Ireland
Kickoff: 11:00AM (CST)
TV: ESPN

Rain is supposed to stop within the hour. Crossing fingers.

Jordan Dwyer was just announced to be OUT. He has apparently been dealing with a foot injury that’s gone under the radar. No timetable for return.

TCU will be without it’s WR1 and WR3 to start the season.

Ed Small and the TEs should see plenty of action.

No surprise here, sadly. I wouldn’t expect JD to play until maybe the B12 season opener

Wet field. Key players out. This will be a disaster.

We’re screwed?

ESPN loves anything but TCU. This pregame show is a joke. Why are we in this game?

Of course it would have been better if TCU was smart enough to use a shamrock instead of a 4 leaf clover

Not sponsored by Guinness? What kind of second rate outfit are you running here?

I wonder what the refs are wearing.

Being interviewed in the stadium, Sonny mentioned that 8,000 TCU fans are there. That's an incredible following. In the olden days in the mid to late 70's when TCU allowed the football program to go down the drain, there were home games we didn't have that many there. How things have changed.
