    I see Briles' defense scheme and penalty habits are still alive and well.

    Special teams is getting raped.

    Looks like we have a shoot out. This doesn't look like the same TCU defense this year which should be expected.

    It's not Briles' defense. We got Phil Bennett from Pitt. We just don't have the personnel on the defensive side of the ball.

    TCU's overrated defense is really showing.

    X-axis refers to on the field performance. + is to the right; - to the left. I think they are looking back 20 years as well as considering potential to ascend.

    Y-axis refers to classroom and off-the-field performance, or essentially lack of scandals. + (lack of scandals and off the field issues) is up; - (history of scandals in recruiting, agents, classroom, or the law) is down. Again they are looking pretty far back, at least 20 years in total.

    So...

    If your University performs well on the field, and does not get caught for NCAA violations nor has players with legal issues you are Stanford.

    If your University performs well on the field, but does so with numerous scandals and players with questionable backgrounds you are Miami.

    If your University stinks on the field, but is full of boy scouts you are Army.

    If your University stinks on the field, and has numerous issues with NCAA violations and or the law, you are New Mexico.

    Is anybody watching this Baylor-TCU game? Never thought I'd say these words, but Baylor is looking good. Or maybe TCU defense is just looking bad.

    Our offense is looking like a well-oiled machine. People like RocketManJosh might want to call us doormats and "nobodies" but the fact remains that we were ranked late last season.

    Robert Griffin put in some work this off-season!
