TCU forgets how to play defense
Baylor defeated TCU 50-48 in a thriller last night, finishing with 564 yards in total offense. TCU coach Gary Patterson had harsh words for his defense after the game, singling out the play of his corners, but he needs to look in the mirror as Lee Corso pointed out this morning on ESPN. TCU lost a bunch of players on defense from last year’s tough squad, and Patterson should have known he had weaker corners. He should known he had to play more conservative defense. Instead, he left his corners out there alone on an island and they got torched. Then he had the nerve to call them out after the game. His own arrogance got him in trouble but he won’t admit it.

And Baylor forgot one of the biggest tenants of football and nearly blew the game: If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
When they decided to go into clock management mode is when their offense sputtered, which left their defense on the field too long, which tired them out.
They’re only lucky that TCU had no sense of urgency in the third quarter.
I got Boise State and Oregon today . . . what do you think?
Sorry, I meant “tenets” . . . still waking up
