Funny how things go sometimes. The Horned Frogs were thought to have the team this season to beat Texas, but they were hammered 34-13. Then we found Texas struggling, and they weren't as good as advertised either. So where does that leave TCU? It left them playing at Air Force, where they lost again. Now they have most likely lost Andy Dalton, their QB, and must go back to Marcus Jackson, who has been completely ineffective. Jackson is completing just 44% of his passes (17-38), and must face a defense, that has the #4 ranking in the country. Wyoming has had one test, and beat up on Virginia by the score of 23-3 in Larimie. Virginia managed just five first downs, and this Cowboy defense is stingy. They even held Boise State on the road to 24 points and just 300 yards of offense. They were even good enough offensively, to survive seven turnovers and a kickoff return for a TD, and win on the road vs. Ohio. TCU has another problem and that is that they may not only be without their QB. And they are also likely without Tommy Blake who has had 17 sacks in his career prior to this season. The defense has been less than expected, and banged up, and the offense has not done much. Wyoming lost at TCU last year, but not without many chances, failing to score from TCU territory three times in the game. We like the Cowpokes to flex their muscles in Laramie, and show TCU who is now king of the hill.
