What an ignorant statement. TCU opened with Colorado, Tarleton and SMU and then 9 conference games. Besides our creampuff games, the SEC played significant out-of-conference opponents. We played Clemson. Bama played Texas. Tennessee played Pitt. UGA played Oregon. LSU played FSU. UK played Louisville. UF played Utah and FSU. A&M played Miami. Missouri played Kansas State. Etc. TCU didn't pick up any relevant out-of-conference opponent.
Instead of whining about not getting to play the Citadel in Week 10 or 11, how about be thankful you opened with 1-11 Colorado, instead of facing 10-3 Oregon or 10-4 Utah and got to close out the regular season with 4-8 Iowa State instead of 11-2 Clemson. Not to mention: they play the Big 12 schedule!
He's barking up the wrong tree if he wants to start comparing schedules. What a clown.
