With that question it makes me realize again that this, I guess, is now our farthest away game. Isn't it nice to stay in the same universe with those we play. Right or wrong move for TCU, I am glad we are not in the MWC, or in the WAC any longer.

Nope. East Carolina University is more than 1,300 miles away. UTEP is about 700 miles away.

Team will most likely leave early Friday morning being that most of the time they leave on the day before the game.

My guess is that they are flying to UTEP by means of SouthWest instead of taking the usual charter bus for instate games.

They Bused to Houston last season and to UNT this year...if its more than a 4-5 hour drive, the team flys.

But we only fly to ECU once every 4 years.

TCU goes to UTAH every year, TCU goes to COLORADO every year. TCU goes to NM or Wyo every year. TCU goes to SDSU or UNLV every year.

I am glad we did not budget airfare to NTSU.

What's your problem? Going out to wish your team well is called "being a fan." There's nothing wrong with showing some support.
If I lived in Dallas, I'd go out there to cheer for them. As it is, I'll cheer for them when they get here!

GO MUSTANGS!

I wish I could afford to go to Colorado every year, that would be nice.

Take the donkey. Longer to get there but much cheaper.
