Think the game next year should be TCU's turn to host. Last year the game was at the AAC cause Moody wasn't ready. JMO, think this game goes back to AAC next year. No reason SMU should play TCU at a FWISD high school gym (5,000 seat Wilkerson Greines). Think they are trying to schedule games at the Convention Center Arena. But, that place is pretty much booked for conventions that use the arena.
While Moody wasn't ready we could have played it in Garland. The reason for the SMU TCU game being at the AAC is because the teams were selected to play in the opening game classic along with Bama. OU, Colorado, and Baylor.

All this excitement for a team that we have beaten the last 2 years in a row and the went winless in their conference?

Thinking that's what happens again next year. . . Like I said. No reason to play TCU in a FWISD gymnasium

If we are in the classic again it will be in the AAC. We had the most fans of anybody so they will probably invite us back if we have not accepted an invited to another event on that date.

Yes, because it's TCU. Personally, the school I hate the most. They are our only true rival. They are where we should be (Big XII) and that makes me hate them even more. Seeing them come into our building and get blown out in front of a raucous sold out crowd wound please me as much as beating UComn or Memphis. Maybe it's just me but the hate runs deep.

Isn't that more jealousy and envy?

I am not jealous of them in hoops for sure. But they should be better next year once their transfers become eligible. Still want to beat them though.

i only envy them in football. We are better then them at everything else that matters - academics, city, girls (although that is pretty close) basketball, campus - and we are just generally better people. TCU would be boring, and then you are stuck with that color for life, and you have to be a frog, and get stomped by everybody in the big 12 in basically everything, and academically everybody is better than you except maybe Tech… It would pretty much suck.

I concur! God I hope we get to play the Whorns in the tournament.
Why, we have nothing to gain by playing them They are ranked lower than we are. Wouldn't you want to play Michigan or Villanova more than Texas?
I would DEFINITELY rather play Texas. Villanova and Michigan have good teams. When it comes to the tournament, I want wins - and a win is what we have to gain by playing Texas. The in-state hype is just an added bonus.
