TCU escapes Minneapolis with a 6-point win over Minnesota
1) The new uniforms look great.
This was about the cleanest thing about this game. However, this continues the tradition of TCU not playing too well when wearing all white on the road.
2) The defense looks like a Gary Patterson Defense.
Considering the young defense being the main concern during the off-season and the two starters out on the defensive line, the defense played fairly well tonight. Aaron Curry and Chris Bradley filled in admirably at DT, and while the new linebackers didn't plug holes or shed blocks as well as their predecessors, they played well (including a Mike Freeze forced fumble in the endzone that probably should have been a sack & safety) and are a work in progress.
