You knew it was coming.
The moment FOX announced that TCU would host Kansas for a primetime showdown under the lights, you knew it was coming. Even if the Jayhawks had a peculiar habit of going down to the wire with the Horned Frogs year after year, it wasn’t hard to see a drubbing of the worst Power 5 team in college football on its way for all to see.
Why the mid-October mismatch between TCU and Kansas was put on national television in the evening, we may never know. Game 7 of the American League Championship Series and a top-25 showdown between Michigan and Penn State, both of which overlapped with the beat-down in Fort Worth, probably had something to do with it.
