Texas Tech vs TCU

[canes1996]

Interesting game so far, and figured I’d give Garrett Riley’s offense a look. Way more running than I expected (not sure why), with some deep shots thrown in. TTech is actually playing some good D (shocker) and their tempo on offense is giving TCU some problems.

I guess my only take away so far is that these teams are actually fun to watch and probably what LCE and others have advocated for us for so long.

Just wanted to keep tabs on this game for the forum since most of the attention seems to be the UF game.

Wide. Open. Receivers. What a novel concept.

Yeah i tuned in as well as i haven't really watched them. TCUs offense is so fun to watch, wide open guys all over the place.

Kind of surprised. TCU uses the run to set up deep passes. Tech uses short passes and QB runs (and tempo) to make their offense run. Both very entertaining and “purposeful” is the best way I can describe it.

TCU’s QB (Duggan) reminds me of 2017 Rosier.

TCU was
5-7 in 2021
6-4 in 2020
5-7 in 2019
7-6 in 2018

Their recruiting class rankings were:
- 28th for class of 22
- 44th for class of 21
- 23rd for class of 20
- 32nd for class of 19
- 25th for class of 18

I wonder what Sonny Dykes did in just one offseason to be 9-0 in year 1?

It certainly wasn’t load up on 5-star athletes... Their QB Max Duggan was horrendous his first 3 seasons as a starter...

I wonder what changed? ...
