Maybe we should start investing more in academics!

Hear! Hear! Could you imagine if we would have invested all this money on football and on the fountains and buildings on academics, maybe we’d be ranked higher than 72!

Here’s traitor dykes trying to run up the score at the half. Most coaches would take a knee here.

We are still in this game…..

having said that, outside of Camar Wheaton, who was an unknown entering this season due to injury, i was rather underwhelmed with our RB group. Certainly not anywhere near P5 level, i suspect below average in AAC this year which is unacceptable if your goal is to win Championships.

I have not followed UCF, Cincy or UH that closely, but i bet their RBs are far superior to ours.

SMU ball to start the second half. Score and this is a game again.

I saw his quote that he left because he had taken SMU as far as he could. I really want our guys to come back and win this game because right now it's looking like we have inferior talent and that is killing me. Have to win this game and start beating TCU for DFW area recruits. I just think this game is a LOT more important than those who are downplaying it suggest. TCU is never going to want to allow SMU into the same conference they are in because history suggests we will beat them IF we are on equal footing. As long as they are P5 and we remain G5 they are going to have an advantage

Great score and defensive stand to close out the half. Need points to start the second half.

They can't cover 11. Gotta step up the run defense. Then again, Riley can thrash with the run and still call 75% pass plays.

Agree. That 1st possession of 2nd half may well dictate the outcome of this game

32 yards on 17 carries for our running game today. Our guys are just getting manhandled and if that doesn't change, our QBs are going to have to become a big part of the running game to keep TCU's defense honest. They keep sneaking 7-8 guys into the box to stuff the run

I think our RBs would be very good with P5 offensive linemen

We’re not getting much in the run game. I wonder if we have outside pitches to RBs in our repertoire. Can’t totally abandon the run game in the second half. Will be great if we can find a way to get more production out of it.

I understand the sentiment, but i completely disagree.

Of course we need improvement in the trenches, regardless, still think our RB group is inferior to upper-end AAC teams
