Curious what fans think - are we more likely to do relatively well in the passing game or relatively well in the running game against TCU?
TCU has this nice hidden Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde thing going on with their defense, but it doesn't appear like it on the surface. If you look at rushing defense, they are about middle of the pack on defense. If you look at passing, they are about middle of the pack on defense. If you look at scoring, they are about middle of the pack on defense.
But how they get there is not really middle of the pack. In four games, they have allowed less than 3 TDs in game. The other five they have allowed more than 5 TDs. Not much middle ground - they either give up a lot or not much. Now that doesn't necessarily mean good news for us, but did notice that it doesn't always relate to that team's success on offense - they did well against a WVU offense that has been pretty good this year but also did poor against a KSU offense that has struggled some this season.
