By now you’ve heard or read the “Texas is 2-9 against TCU since joining the Big 12” stat probably a hundred different times. But it’s just another example of a team with lesser talent, better coaching taking advantage of Texas.
This time, Gary Patterson will have to pull out one of his better coaching performances against a Longhorn team that is starting to roll.
TCU (2-1) is coming off a 42-34 loss to SMU that caused headlines not because the Horned Frogs got smacked, but because Patterson claimed the Mustangs staged a post-game flag planting at midfield along with an attack on a TCU staff member that didn’t happen.
