It's incredibly nice to see Sonny and Kirby with the degree of mutual respect that they have - these two programs clearly respect each other and I'm honored (as a TCU fan) to have the opportunity to play Kirby's Dawgs... they are going to be back in years to come so TCU needs to take advantage of this...

I’ll admit, I’m hoping they can plant their flag there. Go Frogs! Texas A&M overpaid and overextended themselves for a head coach and some recruits. Texas Tech paid each player $25K in NIL money. The Horns lost the Alamo Bowl. Baylor got beat by Air Force. Who’s the best team in Texas for the price of a fast food combo? Who’s in the Naty year one?

As I have told every sill fan, stop making score predictions.... I told this to Michigan Fans, TCU Fans, Ohio State Fans, LSU Fans and many others over the year! Just say who you think might win and why... not a stupid score prediction! All are always wrong! Look at facts, stats, etc.... as I just told a TCU Fan, look at the truth over the season and every team they played and what those teams did their entire season! Look at the mistakes, Look at the Good.... Then make a decision not based on Emotion with a silly score prediction but a more focused Effort! I hate it when fans make score predictions with no reason for the prediction other than emotion! I hope We get a second Natty and back to back, but I would never ever ever ever make a silly score prediction! Either team can win!

TCU had close calls all season and lost one game. Georgia had close calls in some games but found a way to win with luck or the referees TCU is not going to let Georgia run over therm or think they aren’t big enough or fast enough to handle with them this team has felt the experience of losing and they are going to have a different mindset when they play Georgia
@DivaBooHoney Жыл бұрын
Wouldn’t you call TCU winning majority of their games “close calls” mean that they were LUCKY too more so than UGA. The whole ref helping UGA is bogus and a narrative that must helps or makes you feel better somehow. UGA has only had 2 “close games” this season (Mizz and OSU) and they’ve played at a high level against some top 10 ranked teams that you can easily go back to watch highlights. It’s not shocking that having talent and YES being lucky from time 2 time are all apart of winning and becoming a champion….🐶❤️🤍🖤

Absolutely genius way to con people out of money. Bet TCU wins the championship. And there will be alot of people get rich off it. Georgia the better team , but I have a feeling that these refs are going to control the outcome. So pay attention to the flags, and penalties in this game. 👀
