Got to give it up to OSU who played a near perfect game. Those 4 minutes of hell in the 3rd quarter dug TCU's grave, good luck the rest of the season.

Seems cool to me.More than a few on their boards are convinced theyll get a rematch at the same stadium (a semifinal spot this year)

You mean other than a half dozen drops (including a TD), a missed FG and two secondary busts that gave TCU 14 points?
OSU played like shit, on the road without it's best player for half the game and still won by double digits.
2nd rate program, 2nd rate coach, 2nd rate fans

Re: TCU didn’t win by losing but losing 40-28 to Ohio State, although it was far, far from a catastrophe. A couple of Buckeye defensive turnovers sank TCU’s upset hopes although the lingering impression was positive. The Horned Frogs played a powerhouse team pretty even for three quarters. Even though coach Gary Patterson guarded against hyping the showdown as a one-game season, he noted the effort. “I told the team I was proud of them,” Patterson said.
-- Texas won and may have proved it will be a factor in the Big 12 race or that USC is a bit of a trainwreck this season or that it remains every bit as polarizing as any FBS program. Or, all of the above. Texas cornerback Kris Boyd planted both feet in meme world with this postgame quote. “I ain't gonna lie. I feel like we kind of proved that we're back," Boyd said.
Back? Did somebody say Texas was back?
In its decade in the wilderness, the problem for Texas hasn’t necessarily getting a feel-good win or maybe rising to the occasion. It’s been building on those moments and sustaining.
On Saturday, TCU presents that test. The Horned Frogs have won the last four meetings by a combined score of 153-33....
So can Texas put two nice wins together? And can a young TCU team learn from happened against Ohio State.

Good luck against the Horns this Saturday. Win out and as BIG XII Champions TCU still could make the CFPs.
P.S. What the hell is this?

Amazing post. Sad you didn't manage to find a use for the term 'cocksucker' anywhere though.

Ten Things We Learned From Ohio State 40 – TCU 28
Ohio State came into Saturday’s game against TCU with questions needing answers. The first two games against Oregon State and Rutgers provided glimpses, but there was still too much mystery surrounding parts of the team.
Following the Buckeyes’ 40-28 win over the Horned Frogs, however, some of those glimpses seemed more substantial.
Defensively, there are still concerns. Offensively, things are looking pretty darn good.
This was the first time this season we got to see Ohio State tested and facing adversity. It confirmed plenty of thoughts, and we learned even more about this team than we thought we knew before.
1. It’s time to get the Dwayne Haskins Heisman talk going.
This was a measuring stick game for Dwayne Haskins. We saw what he could do against the Adequately-Sized Non-Gender-Specific Siblings of the Economically Unfortunate, but TCU was a different test altogether. After the game, former acting head coach Ryan Day said Haskins passed the test. Since he did pass — and pass quite well — it’s time to really begin the Heisman talk. Unless you want to wait until after the Penn State game, of course.
2. The back seven is still not fixed.
Some of the same problems seen against Oregon State showed up against TCU. There weren’t as many, but they were still there. TCU has the speed to take advantage of split-second delays, which the Buckeye back seven allows to happen too often this season. The linebackers were quiet in the first half, but got louder in the second half. Isaiah Pryor and Jahsen Wint split the snaps at strong safety and split the errors. There is still plenty of work to do at both levels of the defense.
3. Shaun Wade needs to move to safety this week.
Isaiah Pryor and Jahsen Wint both had struggles this week. Pryor took a bad angle on the 93-yard touchdown run and Wint got lost in centerfield and nearly injured Kendall Sheffield during a touchdown pass. I mentioned this on Twitter Saturday night and Tom Orr and I talked about this immediately after the game on our postgame edition of Accost the Field, but it’s time to expedite the move of Shaun Wade to safety. Greg Schiano said last week that Wade would eventually get a look there, but that look needs to happen this week so he can take his bumps and bruises against Tulane. With that experience, he will be much more ready for Penn State in two weeks. While Schiano said Wade would get that look at strong safety, I wonder if they move Jordan Fuller back to the strong safety position he played so well last year and put Wade at free safety in order to utilize his man-coverage skills. Of course, with the way Fuller is playing right now, they may not want to move him.
4. Haskins has confidence in his receivers.
Despite a few drops by Austin Mack, Dwayne Haskins told him that he was going to keep throwing him the ball. Haskins never lost confidence in Mack and appears to have nothing but the utmost confidence in all of his other receivers as well. He makes some incredibly tight-window throws, and he can only do that because he trusts both himself and his receivers. His pinpoint accuracy helps, but also seeing what his guys have done every day in practice will continue to give him the confidence to rely on his receivers no matter how things go early in the game.
5. Running the ball isn’t as easy as it has been in the past.
It is somewhat silly to say this with two Buckeye running backs in the Top 6 in the Big Ten in rushing, but Ohio State isn’t as dominating running the ball as we expected. They have had to fight for nearly every yard, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing because we saw the cumulative effect last night against TCU. Right now, both Mike Weber and J.K. Dobbins are on pace for 1,000 yards rushing in the regular season, but they have just one carry of 30 yards or more between them. Once they start hitting home runs, this offense may be pretty good.
6. But it looks like J.K. Dobbins is starting to get started.
The above being said, J.K. Dobbins closed out the game very well and put together his first 100-yard rushing day of the season. I don’t know how many carries he’ll have next week against Tulane, but the Buckeyes could use another tough-running game at Penn State like they received in Arlington.

P.S. What the hell is this?
Thanks, it will most likely take a miracle to beat OU twice, and of course we need to beat UT first and somehow pull out a win in Morgantown; but TCU fans would probably settle for a NY6 bowl this season.
That is a poor attempt to throw up the frog sign but that person needs to tuck the peace sign fingers in more for those knuckles to resemble frog eyes. Pretty much all Texas schools have gang, I mean hand signs.

‘Please Go Score!’ Dwayne Haskins’ Big Run Secures Win
Imagine going back in time one year and calmly and rationally explaining to an Ohio State football fan that you had an issue with how the Buckeyes were deploying the quarterback in the run game.
“Of course you do, you idiot,” they would answer cheerfully. “They never STOP having the quarterback run it in big games! Everyone has a problem with it!”
And they would be right. Not about you being an idiot, but about the quarterback run.
J.T. Barrett carried the ball 18 times in a loss against Oklahoma, 17 times against Penn State, and 19 times in the Big Ten Championship Game against Wisconsin, less than a week after having knee surgery.
Barrett led the team in carries in all three of those games, and had more carries than both J.K. Dobbins and Mike Weber combined against Oklahoma (18 to 16).
So imagine how surprised that 2017 Buckeye fan would be to learn that your objection was that the Buckeyes weren’t running the quarterback enough in a big game.
For more than three quarters on Saturday night in Arlington, Haskins handed the ball off to Dobbins and Weber over and over, never keeping it on a read option or designed quarterback run.
Throughout the evening, TCU’s defense got more and more aggressive, crashing harder and harder off the edge.
Dwayne Haskins celebrates his touchdown
And then, with the Buckeyes clinging to a 33-28 lead in the fourth quarter and facing 2nd-and-goal from the TCU 5, Haskins faked a handoff to Dobbins, pulled the ball out, and jogged into the end zone for a game-clinching score.
After the game, Haskins said it was the first time he had been given the option of pulling the ball and keeping it himself.
“That red zone play was a QB read. So plays before earlier in the game were designed runs,” he said. “We ran that play a lot. And we saw the end was crunching in hard. So that’s why we called that play.”

Yeah, it is tough to beat a really good team twice in one year; however, we don't actually know how good OU is yet. FAU (2-1), UCLA (0-3), & ISU (0-3) aren't that good. Regardless it can be done and you wouldn't have to play either one in Norman. The first one is in Fort Worth and the second one would be back at Jerry's World.
I never would have guessed "frog eyes".....
