- The Frogs are ranked #11. Right behind the No. 10 Ohio State Buckeyes. I am betting most of our Buckeye Nation friends are trying to overlook this. After all, they wouldn't want to actually credit our little school for doing so well.
- TCU has two losses this season. They have been to No. 2 Oklahoma and No. 6 Utah. The Frogs couldn't hold up against the Sooners, but their defense did hold OU to 25 yards rushing. Against Utah, it was a battle of the defenses as both offenses struggled to get points on the board. In the end, it was a last-minute Utah drive that did TCU in. No matter, two losses to two top 10 teams isn't much to complain about.
Despite all of this, TCU will still be screwed come bowl season. The Mountain West Conference lacks the glamour and prestige of other conferences, so its teams are stuck playing in meaningless bowls played so early in the postseason that people often miss them. Once again, this shows that college football is all about greed and politics. It has little to do with actually getting the best matchups on the field to battle for the best rankings.

You're preaching to the choir! How do you feel about OU stealing the Big 12 South title from Texas? TWO teams the Longhorns beat (Mizzou & OU) are playing in the Big 12 Championship. What kind of crap is that?!
I think TCU should come to the Big 12 and Baylor should go to the Mountain West. The Frogs are consistently more competitive than they are.
Yes, tell that to politicians who bought Baylor a spot when they never deserved and left TCU out in the cold.
First of all, what a ride in the Big 12. Such awesome teams and talent. I think that no solution was fair in the Big 12 South tie. I don't think BCS rankings should determine the winner, that's for sure. The BCS is just one big mess as it is. It should be a OU-Texas rematch for the conference championship! No one will forget the Longhorns, though.
PS-Glad to see you're still alive and reading!
