TCU's offense is terrible.

They're pretty good defensively, though.

That seems to be the profile of most Big 12 teams this season. It's a weird year for the league. There aren't very many good offensive teams.

A massive step back. It's a shell of what it was.

Tech's pass defense has been straight cheeks all year.

Joey Mac G and his overhyped team are getting embarrassed by the suck-ass buffs right now.

Texas weather! If it isn't 98 degrees for 11am games it's raining at night like crazy.

Ha ha ha ha ha! The announcers on the TCU game just completely bagged on the flabby freshman of TCU hanging over the railing suggesting that they really ought to spend some time doing some push-ups

Not sure if I was expecting more from BYU or less from TCU. Surprised so far.

Awful call by Tech's OC on that 4th and inches. Buffs hold them again and takeover.

The Rhulers move to 5-0. Next week they'll have their first big game in Lincoln in awhile as they may be ranked and playing #6 Indiana.

They've had nothing but practice so far.

Schedule is definitely backloaded. Will be interested how they react next week when they run into some substance.

Weather in Ft Worth reminds me of our trip there in November 2015 except the temp is double what they were then. That was miserable!

Colorado has played really well defensively tonight.

Tech's offense isn't very good, though. Offense is pretty ugly across the entire sport right now.

Louisiana Tech is beating Army 14-7 at halftime.

We've actually played some pretty salty defenses so far.

The 11% dip in TV ratings makes complete sense to me as I flip through all these games not really stopping for any of them because I have no idea who plays for who any more. I don't see the story of the kid who stood on the sidelines for his first year but worked on his game at School X and got better each year as I watched. Now he's a top player. Instead I hear a name and think, oh yeah he was that 1,000 rusher at NC State last year, but now he's at Washington?

We had a beautiful thing in college football and greed (I don't mean the players) screwed it all up. I hate it.

The quality of play is also really, really sloppy.

It's helped parity in a "low tide drops all boats into muddy slop" kind of way, but there are few teams that actually good anymore. Everyone is varying degrees of mid.

NIL sucks but some teams (Tech?) took advantage of it to be in the national spotlight. Wish we had deeper pockeds. Dont think it will last as it is now

Has all that money done Tech or others much good? One could argue that even Michigan, Oregon, & others have not benefitted much from all the money they've spent.

I wonder how much Indiana spent on NIL last year relative to the established blue bloods. It sure was a lot of fun watching them beat one blue blood after another!

I remember reading that Indiana didnt spend much. i think it was in the high teens.

Tecn did pretty good last year. Losing their "starting" QB has hurt them this year, but they are undefeated going into the Buffalo game

Our offensive performance doesn't look so bad after watching this Tech-Colorado game.

The Buffs defense is dominating this game right now.

My initial take was accurate: both TCU & BYU have good defenses.

Tech making some plays now: after INT they are now moving the ball into the red zone.

Not sure about last year's Indiana NIL. Possibly low $20's. But over $35 million this year
