MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — It’s safe to say that very few people had TCU pegged as one of the last two undefeated teams in Big 12 play, even if it is only three games into the schedule.
Big 12 coaches resoundingly voted the Horned Frogs as the league’s worst team in this year’s preseason poll — TCU had 11 points in a polling system where nine points would have indicated a unanimous choice for the cellar. There was even a considerable gap before ninth place, where Kansas State received 23 points.
That’s in the rearview mirror now.
