1. BEAT TCU
Laugh if you want to, but this is not totally out of the realm of possibility. Yes, the game will be played next year in Fort Worth. However ....
1. We'll have 61 sophomores, not freshmen -- who had better be living in the weight room between now and then.
2. We lost by a lot (62-7) three years ago, 38-10 two years ago, 17-6 last year and 20-13 this year -- the margin is dwindling every year.
3. Phillips now has experience and has an entire offseason to get more familiar with his receivers and to watch film and to get stronger and spring drills and 2-a-days and .... in other words, our promising QB should be even better next year than he was this year.
4. The Ponies will be significantly bigger, faster and stronger next year.
5. The Frogs have some talented young players waiting to play, of course, but their outgoing senior class is a serious bunch of players, including: PK Nick Browne (thank god he's gone), RB Corey Connally, LB Devon Davis, DT Richard Evans, OT John Glud, LB Josh Goolsby, FB Kenny Hayter, RB Ricky Madison (who was supposed to be the starter this year before getting hurt), TE Stanley Moss, DE Robert Pollard (thank goodness), DT Chad Pugh (ditto), Tyrone Sanders, DE Bo Schobel (thankfully, he's the last of of that froggy family) and SS Brandon Williams.
We all like to joke about the Frogs because .... well, because they go to TCU, they have to live in Fort Worth, they wear purple and are named after little lizards, they enter the field to the sound of a Zamboni that can't find an ice rink, their little bent-knuckle hand signal is comical, at best .... but you have to admit, that is one seriously talented senior class. Good riddance, fellas. No smack talk here - that's a terrific senior class.
