V

Tonight 9 pm Central.

The Frogs hop into The Front Ranges—and without designer ski wear.*

I expect the Frogs to prevail.



*…and I always figured when Coloradans shouted: “You ski like a Texan”, they were paying me a compliment…

Someone forgot to tell ESPN to have the tennis match end for the TCU kick.

 

[horninchicago]

Clearly, Horn Fans has indicated the kick was at 9 pm CDT.

 

[WorsterMan]

Go Frogs!

ESPN where I am .... showing Serena William's tribute.

 

[Chop]

Weather delay. Just now starting.

 

[horninchicago]

Lucky on the weather delay. How could anyone have guessed they would make a big deal over Serena playing in, I guess, her last US Open?

 

[Chop]

Frog’s D bends but doesn’t break on CU’s first drive.

Ball goes over on downs.

0-0.

 

[Chop]

QB Chandler Morris comes out rusty and cold for TCU. 3 and out…

Sonny Dykes will prolly have him putting up big numbers, but not early in this first game…

 

[WorsterMan]

Frog possession with ou transfer Chandler Morris not impressive.

Suspect we will see Max Duggan soon....

 

[Chop]

Frog possession with ou transfer Chandler Morris not impressive.

Suspect we will see Max Duggan soon....

Yeah, maybe so. I have confidence in Sonny Dykes’ ability to coach up QBs. But that first drive was not a good look…

 

[Chop]

TCU D, plus CU self-destructing, leads to another D stop. FG.

3-0 CU

 

[Chop]

Punt return for a TD!!! Darius Davis.

TCU 7
CU 3

 

[WorsterMan]

Very impressive Frog punt return for a TD. Kid is very fast!!
7-3 Toads

 

[Chop]

More bend but don’t break TCU D. Another CU FG.

7-6 TCU

 

[WorsterMan]

Duggan in at QB.... oops still Morris.

 

[Chop]

Quentin Johnston for TCU was “carrying that ball like a load of bread” (to quote 957 current and former Texas high school football coaches). That may come back to bite him with a fumble. I bet Dykes catches that on the film.

 

[Chop]

TCU’s O-line isn’t very strong.

 

[Chop]

4th down — love that call. Jet sweep around the corner to Johnston. What speed! 1st down TCU! But, once again, Quentin Johnston was “carrying that ball like a loaf of bread.”

Say Coach PK—have our lads really going to strip the ball when tackling Quentin Johnston.

 

[Chop]

Wow, Chandler Morris is off.

 

[Chop]

This does not look like a Sonny Dykes offense, yet…

 

[WorsterMan]

Morris just not getting it done. Dykes may be ready to go Duggan next series.

 

[Chop]

TCU pinned them on the one yard line. Great punt and coverage right there!

 

[Chop]

Halftime

7-6 TCU

Poor Chandler Morris may get the hook and some bench time. He was just awful the first half. Max Duggan has done pretty well at QB before.

It seems to me that TCU’s O-line can’t effectively run block, including in short yardage situations. TCU’s O = passes, and runs to the outside. Either Morris improves a lot, and fast, or it’s gotta be Duggan.

 

[Pomspoms]

Not impressed with TCU at this point.

 

[WorsterMan]

Horns get Toads in Austin this fall. I may go to that game.

Based on only 1/2 of first frog opening game, me thinks Horns will beat these dudes.

 

[WorsterMan]

I expect Duggan will start 2nd half.
