They'd win the East

Probably 8-4/9-3 in the West and third

They're pretty good

Well, let's see. TCU hasn't beaten A&M in over 40 years so...

2-3 in East & 4-5 in West.

On another topic regarding TCU...I'm going to the parent's weekend game this Saturday and wanting to know which sections are under cover from the 2nd deck? Last year was a miserably hot game.

They'd have a decent chance of winning the East, but then so does just about everybody in the East now except Missouri. In the West, they'd probably finish around the middle of the division, ahead of Arky, Aggy and Ole Miss, battling with MSU, LSU and Auburn for 2nd.

Also, how would this answer change if TCU went into Stillwater and knocked off OkState who many of the pundits believe is the second best team in the Big12 this year?


I would probably make them a co-favorite with Georgia in the East and co-2nd-place favorites with LSU and Auburn in the West.

2nd behind Alabama, but not far back.

Either of the 'Sippi sisters for OU.

TCU would better than a lot of people would expect, that's for sure.

They should've crushed Arkansas by more than the final score reflects. Ole Miss thought they were going to take care of business too, but they got absolutely mauled.

Patterson is an amazing coach. One of his idols is Nick Saban, and he uses Saban's ideology on toughness and grit. You'll hear him during the spring, talking about Nick Saban and Alabama. About how if you want to be like Alabama, you have to endure like Alabama. Be tough like Alabama. Be focused like Alabama.

Dude puts the Crimson Tide on a pedestal.

And though he doesn't get the star players, his squads typically hit harder than anyone in the conference. His philosophy is to out-tough the other team. In most cases, they do. Even if they lose.

Middle of the pack. This year. There have been some years they would have finished towards the top. Gary is a really good coach. TCU's problem is talent. They are the inverse of A&M.

#2.

I'd give the Big12 those worthless SJWs, Mizzou, and take the winningest program of all time, OU.

Don't bring us in to this...you should be worrying about keeping us from a 3-peat Big 12 title...

This year? (7-5) - (9-3) depending upon which division and who they were matched up with non-conference wise.

No, and I like Oklahoma State this year too. Much like the Big 12 sans Oklahoma, they don't play defense though.

1 or 2. I'd love to see them play Alabama. I'd actually bet on OU winning.

Missouri for Kansas - just for laughs.

I know you are pumped about beating the Hogs but in the SEC, everybody beats the Hogs. Also, Bert is fat and we all know it. Enjoy your win but if you were in the west this year at best you would beat the Hogs and TAMU.

Alabama, Auburn, and LSU would run train on you
tLandmass would probably beat you as well, just would be closer

Big 12 schools that could compete in the SEC west
#1 Oklahoma, probably below the Big 3
#2 Kansas State, because the wizard is one crafty bastard

I like coach of KSU and the fans of ISU but not enough to trade the noobs for as we like hazing them. KU would give the SEC some more basketball cred but not enough to trade any team we already had.

Face it, austin is toxic and you guys are stuck there with all the other children unable to break away the last realignment. Thought the Sooners had more sense but they seem destined to stay like those with Battered Wife Syndrome.

Not well, Trenton Thompson had 4 sacks against the frogs in their bowl game if my memory is correct. Arkansas is not good.

TCU would be competitive. Other than Alabama, I think they would be on par with the other good teams in the conference including LSU, Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, and Auburn.
