TCU fans...

Sarcasm?

Umm no? It's at home, after time to figure things out and we have oodles of speed and depth.

We should score a lot in this game and I don't see them being able to keep up.

Fair point on the QB not being new. I guess our likely QB isn’t new either (having made numerous starts at KSU)...but those starts don’t make me super confident. You will definitely have a better QB than us, regardless.

I DO feel confident in the secondary; we held Big 12 offenses under 200 passing yards/game...and did a really good job bottling up some top guys like Hollywood Brown (50ish yards), Hakeem Butler (only a catch or two)...and that was without a healthy Julius Lewis for much of the year.

This is what is so great about NCAA vs. NFL...two totally different styles/looks/strengths going head-to-head...not the boring same-on-same. I was able to make it up to Minnesota for the Frogs-Gophers in 2015 and it was great...we don’t get to experience the Big Ten game experience much.

I still think the biggest advantage you have over us is that you will be cruising into the game after having played two solid but beatable teams and have a damn good idea on what’s working/what’s not...and we will have no real idea of what we are; I think this is a big issue for TCU with the QB fiasco that’s occurring in Fort Worth.

On our premium board I made this same point, I think it is getting massively overlooked. Purdue plays 2 average to above average teams to open its season and TCU essentially plays a preseason game and then has a bye week then travels to Purdue...... That is a weird couple of weeks for TCU
