Saturday Blitz: Gary Patterson’s TCU Legacy Has Just Begun
by Kyle Kensing
Thanksgiving football was supposed to be all about the Texas Longhorns, but TCU went into Austin and spoiled the holiday. Gary Patterson’s Horned Frogs built a 14-3 in the first half, chipping away at a Longhorn rush defense that has struggled much of 2012 and stifling the Texas offense on the opposite end.
The Texas defense rallied, but the offense could never quite solve the Horned Frog defense. The 13 points Texas scored was nearly 27 fewer than its average coming into Thursday.
So impressed were some with the Patterson-led team’s effort, the suggestion of Patterson replacing Mack Brown at UT was floated via Burnt Orange Nation.
Patterson’s name is high on the list of many fan bases seeking new head coaches. Arkansas has had the most buzz, and I detailed why going there from TCU. Texas is a new and intriguing name in the sweepstakes, but also assumes there’s a contest to win. ...
