breaking news: due to a heartless attitude from the head coach, the TCU horned frog has just lost their.
TCU football’s performance in the Battle for the Iron Skillet on Saturday night was at an all-time low as the team lost 66-42 to SMU, giving up a record amount of points. In the rivalry’s existence, TCU has never surrendered as many points as it did with 66.
The Horned Frogs were utterly disorganized during the game, committing 13 penalties—two of which were called against head coach Sonny Dykes for unsportsmanlike behavior—and five offensive mistakes.
Despite outgaining the Mustangs 480-375 in total yards, TCU lost by three scores after giving up a touchdown on a punt return. Now 2-2 on the season with only one FBS victory (Stanford), TCU must regroup for a Big 12 matchup against Kansas at Arrowhead.
The Horned Frog defense was unable to contain Brashard Smith, who ran for 127 yards and three touchdowns and averaged 7.1 yards per carry. The Mustangs carried the ball 42 times and averaged 5.7 yards per carry as a team, often gaining first downs against a 3-3-5 defensive alignment.
that failed to have more than seven or eight players in the box. Defensive tackles Tymon Mitchell and Hakeem Ajijolaiya combined for just two tackles, while Markis Deal ended the game without a tackle. Furthermore, TCU was without a tackle during the entire game.
