Dear GoFrogs and TCU,
The regional is not at Globe Life Field

What time is today's game? Oh, and what TV channel? Oh, wait, you don't even mention the first game is today and the opponent is Arizona!

Sorry that I've been ragging on the media the last few days, but the errors and omissions have gotten so bad it is just absurd.

I give this one an F.

This is just another commentary on the state of today's media. Overly biased, inaccurate and unable to provide information that the public wants.

So I'm watching the Kentucky and Ball State game and the color announcer just said when you breakdown the tournament field there are only seven or eight at large bids.
