I got TCU, too much upset talk. Talk about motivating the horned frogs, everybody in the country is picking Tech.

This is kind of how I'm starting to feel.... need to fly a little under the radar to pull off a big upset

Yeah but everyone was picking Ole Miss to beat Bama too and it happened.

Best bet would be the over...unless they set it at 150...and that might not be out of reach.

TCU drops 82 on these guys last year.

And now they are the "trap" game because they beat (1-2) Arkansas?

I just don't see it happening.

I dont know if TCU can 80 point them again, but I think the Horny Toads have grown tired of all the upset talk.

Well I know Techs' defense sucks but TCU not having 7 players on defense kinda makes a big difference IMO. I know TCU's offense is so explosive but Tech's is just as explosive. Then you add in the home field advantage which is a huge factor and always is for Tech.

I havent watched either of these teams enough to actually feel confident either way though.

I never got the sense that the PUBLIC was picking Ole Miss. Maybe I saw a diffrent groundswell.

Most of what I saw was everyone picking Alabama to curbstomp them in revenge to prove it was a fluke win last yr.

I figured they'd beat Bama, but my thoughts were they'd do so through the air against Bama's swiss-cheese secondary.

Never expected five turnovers and a fluke play from hell.

man if this game was at night...nothing like a crazy game on the high plains of Lubbock.

craziness is a given. Afternoon game? Possibility of complete crazy is reduced, but still possible.
