Should we continue playing TCU?

[gostangs]

TCU doesn’t really challenge us, and if you win everyone says of course, if not, its a disaster. Seems like a no win for us now and hurts our strength of schedule. I think we should drop them and replace them with Alabama (sarcasm off).

Sonny & Patterson could bring some class to the rivalry. It’s a good game for us. We play a strong P5 team, minimal travel and helps recruiting the DFW area. It helps if we start playing better and winning.

I think this had a degree of sarcasm, ponyte.

Haha, good one. Over on their boards they’re having meltdowns about playing us and there’s a thread where they all chime in on how much they don’t like us and how much they don’t consider us a rival — methinks they do consider us a rival and are just mad they got beat.

I had heard the series has been extended for another 10 years but I haven’t seen anything official yet. They probably don’t want to play us here next year — with Buechele and our entire OL back and them losing a ton of contributors, we’ll probably be favored.

If it happens, the next Game at Ford will be the 100th meeting

Thanks. Obvioulsy I can't read words in parenthesis.

My point was unlike the animosity Patterson has previously displayed towards playing us, he displayed more class than usual. I assume the reationship with Dykes helps.

This is much better for us that UTSU game.

Totally missed the parenthesis!

I agree and he probably respect Dykes and thought June was a bum (very true). Yes TSU is useless!
