I was really impressed with their performance today. There defense is. Hopefully BO Pelini comes up with the gameplan of his life as I think Nebraska will play Tejas in the Big 12 title game. A Gator loss to the Seminoles would be nice as well, but won't happen.

Game showed me that Utah was/is seriously overrated....  How many times can you let a team get outside on you in one game?

TCU still good team, but this game was a media tilt. Utah has played one team with winning record prior to this and it showed.

TCU would beat Florida by 2 TDs... no doubt in my mind... but then again, i am no longer convinced Florida is one of the top 3 or 4 teams in football... their offense is laughable...

IF CINN WINS OUT THEY WILL PASS TCU. THEY WILLGAIN POINTS FROM ILL AND PITT WINS TO PASS TCU.  OF COURSE THEY HAVE TO WIN 1ST.   IF TEAMS LIKE TCU AND BOISE HAD TO PLAY IN THE BIG CONF'S THEY WOULD HAVE AT LEAST 2 LOSS A YEAR.

CINN IS IN A BIG CONF WITH 2 OF IT'S TEAMS IN THE TOP 10 IN SOME POLLS. THE NON CONF TEAMS WILL NEVER GAIN MUCH UNTIL THEY START PLAYING STRONGER OUT OF CONF. BCS TEAMS. AND THEY WILL SHY AWAY FROM THAT BECAUSE THEY WON'T BE GETTING THE FAKE TOP 10 RATINGS.

if TCU were in the SEC... the TCU-Florida or TCU-Bama matchup would be a toss up, and i would favor the home team wherever it were played... TCU's offense is well-oiled... Florida's offense is inconsistent and often impotent... the defenses are very evenly matched...

i just point this out because the statement that TCU would definitely lose twice playing an SEC schedule is bullshit... they would play two games that would put a legitimate scare into them, just like Florida and Alabama do... Florida's only test this year was LSU... the rest of the teams on their schedule would not challenge TCU...

you are brain-washed by SEC thinking... you might want to lose that before we get to bowl season... if'n you value your money...

whoever loses the SEC title game is going to get waxed by TCU, because they won't be up for the game, and TCU is just as good as either of them, but will be getting points...

TCU whacked Stanford last year  and Boise in a bowlgame the only thing they need to watch is someone stealing Paterson

TCU also gets to face defenses like Utah's every week. TCU wouldn't do a god damn thing against UF and Bama's defenses.

The only decent defenses UF has faced this year are SCar and LSU, and the offense looked like crap in both of those games. You really think Vandy, UGA, and KY have solid D's? Oh yeah can't forget Arkansas and Miss St.

TCU outgained Clemson in Death Valley in what was basically a hurricane. Clemson has outgained every other opponent they've played in Death Valley by 90+ this year.

i strongly disagree!  but we need not argue, because we will get to find out for ourselves when the game happens...

I've been rooting for a Texas loss just so TCU can have an opportunity,as that's the only way it would happen.  IMO TCU would beat Florida because they have the better more balanced offense. They can beat you through the air and on the ground.  Where as Florida is one dimensional.  All they can do is run the ball and TCU has the 5th best run d.  I honestly can not see how Florida will be able to score on this defense. Both TCU and the under would be "GOY" or whatever you want to call it type of plays for me, but unfortunately I doubt we see it.

TCU 13
Florida 10

i agree with you Cal... Florida can't put up points against TCU... TCU ML would be about the easiest money of the season if they got that matchup... and they very well might...
