As some of you know, I'm a TCU Horned Frogs fan. The Frogs don't get the same kind of TV exposure that the Longhorns, A & M and even this year Texas Tech get. In this BCS crazy world, I think it's a tremendous tribute to Coach Gary Patterson and his team that they can be recognized as the 7th best college football team in the country. With their only losses coming to # 2 ranked Utah and # 5 Oklahoma(ahh there is justice with the Sooners finishing behind Texas in the final poll), the Frogs have shown that you don't need to be in the Big 12 to be an outstanding football program. It's always a thrill walking down "Frog Alley" before a game and seeing the purple pride on display at Amon Carter Stadium. Plus with Coach Patterson under contract for five more years things are looking bright for Frog Fans! Congratulations also to the fans of the Longhorns and Texas Tech who both had outstanding seasons. It was truly an exciting and enjoyable year for college football here in the Lone Star State.
