Lots of "TCU started 20/22 upperclassmen, they will fall off next year" and "TCU won't have sustained success" comments here lately.

At the end of the day, TCU is playing for a national championship, while we have yet to play in a conference championship this century. Many of you would sell your souls for the position TCU is in this year.
All the put downs of TCU in this thread are ridiculous.

NOT counting this year, TCU has 6 Top 10 AP poll finishes in the last 20 seasons. They have two Top 5 finishes (#2 and #3). Again, NOT counting this year.

We have 2 Top 10 AP poll finishes in the last 20 seasons. They were both Top 5 finishes at #5 and #4.

TCU may not have sustained success. They may be a one hit wonder. However, their level of sustained success and their non-hit success far exceeds ours.

We should have nothing but respect for what they have done, even without this "one hit wonder" season.

I doubt there is any Ag who would honestly not trade TCU's success over the last 20 seasons (including their bad years) with what we have achieved. They have accomplished far more than us. Plain and simple.

Kind of strange/ironic the comments on how much better TCU football is versus A&M when A&M has beat TCU the last 24 games we have played them. 24 wins 0 losses baby.

I know I may be going back some years but us oldies still have a hard time believing TCU is so much better than A&M.

Additionally, even counting this year for TCU, A&m has a better conference win % than TCU over the last 5 years.


Texas A&M and TCU haven't played in over 20 years. Texas A&M may have a better conference win % over the last 5 years (seriously doubt that holds over 10 years or 20 years), but Top 20, Top 10, and Top 5 final finishes suggest TCU has been much better over the last 20 years.

We crush them head to head. That is true and good. But they have more sustained success over the last 20 years than we have. The point is that those saying TCU is a one hit wonder are wrong and haven't been paying attention. They have had real success over the last 20 years (and do have some really bad years). We have been mostly mediocre. They have been mostly good or bad. I know which I would rather have.

I would rather have the one that has lead to a shot at the national title in 5 days. But that's just me.

Hilarious that you would cut it off the year you did. Let's just ignore the combined 23-3 the 2 years before you cut off your arbitrary timeline.

Yes, there was a run of .500 seasons at the end of Gary's tenure here. However, this will also be the 8th season TCU has finished in the top 10 since I believe 2008. I had to go back to 1957 to find the last 8 times A&M has finished in the top 10.

First off, I think it will be 7th time they finish top 10 not 8 since 2008.

Second off, you talk about ignoring years, why did you stop at 2008? Why not stop at 1960? Then we can still say 7th time in 62 years they are in top 10. 1960-2007 0 times in top 10.

Everyone just picks arbitrary stopping points to make whatever case they want (including you and me).

So what. There's little evidence to support theTCU jumping to national championship level this season based on the current roster, coach turnover and recent performances.

However, none of that matters. What matters is they got lightning in a bottle and took advantage of their shot. We had a chance in 2012 and maybe 2020 but didn't fully take advantage.

No one, not even the diehardest of diehard frog fans, could have predicted this when the season started. Good on the frogs. Now go out and get beat.

Oh wow, 7 instead of 8, you really hammered home your.. errr.. I mean my point there. So thanks for that.

2008 is 15 years. If you want to go back to 2000, the exact same numbers still stand. I mean the last 15 years seem relevant, but going back the last 25 doesn't change a single thing I said.

One of us had to go back 15 years to make our point, the other went back to 1960, and it still made his ****ty argument *****

Just quit while you are behind fella. I'm embarrassed for you.

So you get on someone's case for arbitrarily looking at TCU 4 years prior to this season and then get mad if someone looks prior to 2008? Pot meet kettle.

I'm glad you get to determine what years someone can look at to make a case. Because you arbitrarily picked the best time period possible to make your case and ignore all other arguments. Bravo!

So stupid. If you call out the board's blatant cognitive dissonance, you must just not be a fan. The laziest of lazy responses.

You are right. I am lazy.

But I was not lazy the last 4 years. I was lazy for the last 15 years. But not lazy for the 50 years prior to that.

But to your point, you have to look at 15 years so I am lazy!

it's another advantage to playing in a mediocre conference like the Big 12.

teams can make meteoric rises one season from the next.

it wasn't just TCU that made a big jump in the BDF this year.

Kansas State went from 4-5 in conference play in 2021...to 8-2 and the conference champ in 2022


Yet in 18 years we won the conference…. One time

Sunshine pumping...When A&M played in the conference Nebraska and Colorado were darn good. Nebraska whipped us for the championship one year

You can't make your "argument" without tailoring the timeline EXACTLY a certain way to a point that it's meaningless. TCU has been a better program than us since the turn of the millennium. Straight up. That's not debatable. None of your mental gymnastics can change that.

It's obvious you are Omar Comin...making the exact same points as him. Agreeing with him and both new accounts that were just created.

No need for multiple accounts.

And sure TCU probably has a better record since the millennium and also didn't play in a real conference for half that time.

What? I didn't get on his case for going before 2008. He can go back to the beginning of time and TCU will still have more top ten finishes, so go back as far as you want. So no, I'm not picking an arbitrary time period to support my agenda. I'm picking a time period that's actually relevant, even though going back further would make my argument even stronger.
