That would be a really fun game and a good measuring stick for us. Air Force gave TCU all they wanted a few weeks ago.

I could google it, but is the Armed Forces Bowl in Fort Worth? Or did that just change?

Yeah its in Ft. Worth. Shouldn't be too difficult for our fans to travel 40 miles for our first bowl appearance since the Reagan administration.

i think when if comes down to it we as fans will just be happy to be in a bowl, but it would really be nice to be able to go to the game (if it is somewhere in the continental united states).

going to hawaii the day before christmas is just not an option for some, although I guess for the team it would be a neat experience.

The weather slowed TCU way down in that game. It was like 14 degrees and sleeting or something ridiculous like that.

14 degrees or no Air Force had to play in it too. Nice try though.

Yeah, but TCU wasn't used to playing in cold weather because they are afraid to practice outside.

TCU had two turnovers in the red zone and one late in the 4th. TCU dominated air force the entire game, they just made some costly errors that made the score a lot closer

TCU has dominated in several of their losses in recent years. They have found ways to lose when they were clearly better team-see Utah last year
