Did they ever interview Chad or just the sweaty morbidly obese coach.

The whole night was a TCU info-mercial.

Well it was the TCU broadcast.

Not only was it an infomercial, TCU copywrighted the broadcast. Does the home team always get that right?

Announcers were very complimentary of SMU.

fatterson will make sure they never announce a tcu game again...

Mark Followill, the lead announcer, was SMU's radio voice for years.

Maybe SMU should buy commercial time like TCU

Isn't "one nation under frogs" kind of sacrilegious for a "Christian" school?

Did you know TCU still has tickets available for their home game against Kansas?

Not even kind of. Yes it is.

Yes. As I understand it generally the conference tv deals cover a certain number of pre-selected home OOC games (believe these are called tier 2 games). Believe this game fell under fox's deal for TCU's tier 3 rights.

I thought they changed the C in their name to something more fitting that I would rather not repeat

TV broadcast is under the contract of the home team. Big 12 contract didn't pick this up in the top 2 tiers and so it fell to 3rd tier rights (TCU's owned rights)

Thanks Calallen.
