The new unis are dog ugly ... and you know it.
Sports, and all that implies.

The world would be a better place without TCU... I truly hate that joke of a campus that they try to pass for a University and hope nothing but horrible things happen to the Frogs. Let's go Utes! Go get some Frog Legs!

Oh yeah, and while I'm at it... GO SMU, BEAT UTEP!!!

TCU wins - good for mid-major conferences BUT we lose the ability (in the future) to compete for recruits, and lose some of the recognition we might get for making our first bowl in 25 years.

Sounds like we want TCU to lose in my opinion. Thoughts?

It actually helps your recruiting because it proves you don't have to be in an AQ, which none of us ever will, to get to a BCS and possibly NC game. Believe me, I would never recruit SMU fans as I consider you the most hated. However, I would love Top 20 TCU to spank Top 20 SMU every year versus an unranked SMU. Helps us both and I imagine a ton of solid recruits would be at the game.

Go Frawgs. Love the new unis also. Much better in person than photo. Thank you NIKE!


I am sure you love having Jeremy Johnson and Ricky Collins at the game. I hope they see through all that ESPN Game Day and BCS talk stuff. You guys got Sam Carter and Blake Roberts from us this year and Josh Boyce from us last year and Blaize Folz from us in the 2008 class. All of these players we needed. So don't come over here saying how much a TCU wins helps SMU. That is ridiculous. Your coaches will only throw it in a recruit's face when they can.

Gotta give June time. Will be harder to take recruits from you this year than last and so on. Definitely fear you more than baylor but don't get uppity like a rooster (why is c o c k y a deleted word) Did I hit Baylorfans by misstake? This is the time of the Texas Horned Lizard. Love the two way hate.

BTW, I know SMU coaches would never negative recruit the frogs being a railroad town and such. :|

The SMU coaches would never negatively recruit TCU but the TCU coaches would negatively recruit against SMU. You going to a BCS championship game does not help us in head to head recruitng and you know it.

I still find it weird how many TCU & Houston fans creep our board, some with 100+ posts

If the roles were reversed...well, nevermind. i would shoot myself before i wore purple or lived in houston.

I always pull for SMU when they are not playing the Frogs. I happen to believe there is a big difference in the rivalries of the big public schools and the small private ones. I like to think our rivalry is more like Harvard/Yale, its fun for us- without all those GED havin T-shirt fans mucking up the enjoyment. I don't believe either university will ever have the fan support of a UT, I mean, they graduate more in 2 years than we have in living alumni. It is what it is, and i am all for SMU winning, except when they play the Frogs. Some of you may not buy into that, want it to be like a Ohio State- Michigan or something. I say let it be what it is- something that is great for us, but not a huge national stage game. It could be better, which is why I like what SMU is doing this year. So kick the crap out of UT-Mexico, and we'll try to do the same to Utah. And hope we are both undefeated when we meet next year.

I want to narrow the gap between us and our most natural rival.

Changing the Model helped.

Hiring JJ helped.

TCU going to a BCS bowl game does not help.

Go Utes

The only major reason they want us to win is to help the schedule strength. Because that is the thing the BCS people are questioning.
