Week 5 Prediction Thread...Call Pest Control...Texas vs TCU

Yep...somehow I overlooked that one...maybe because I haven't been seeing them score on the first drive of a game this year.

 

Time to burn the mock turtle neck

Horns
52-19

 

Jim Swink 47
Ed Price 20

The All American running back is still scoring.

 

Texas 56
TCU 48

 

Yup, unfortunately, I hear there is a high chance of rain in FW during the game Saturday.... despite artificial field @ Amon G. Carter, all bets are off IMO.

 

Ugly trend will be fixed/reversed beginning this year.

Texas 38
TCU 17

 

Sarkisian gets some giant pointy-toed boots.

Texas: 48
Riff Ram Bah Zoo U: 20

 

Texas-40
TCU-17

And we will strike down with great vengeance….

 

Texas 24
Tcu. 21

Tcu has a lot of players returning that have been out…... It’s gonna be a battle.

 

UT 27
TCU 21

 

This is a tough game to call based on the previous years' results mixed in with how well the team has played the past couple of weeks.

I think the offense will score but not to the tune of 63 or 70 points. I also feel that the defense will make a big splash in this game to prove that they can hang with the offense's production as a unit.

Texas - 41
TCU - 17

Horns - 33
Frogs - 23

 

Can someone help me here...?

 

She’s on a roll

 

@Texanne was not drunk when she stated that.

Riff ram bah zoo, let 'er go TCU (or something similar) is an old school cheer frog fans sometimes chant during games.

 

Texas 28 TCU 17

 

Caught myself sippin the kool-aid this week.

Horns- 42
Purple Kermits- 27

 

Good guys - 34
Cockroaches - 24

 

I posted elsewhere but I think this deserves a place here..

Senior starting corner Josh Thompson out in concussion protocol. Derrian Dunn likely replacement.

 

Pretty sure TCU plays on grass WM.

 

speaking of "... Call Pest Control ..." in the title of this thread ...

One of my first memories of being at UT-Austin in the early 80s was turning on the TV and seeing (for the first time) the A-B-C Pest Control advert with the animated aardvark and the clever jingle (as best I recall):

There's roaches in the your basement
and there's spiders in your attic!
The termites ate your golf clubs
and your husband says he's had it!
If moths got in your closet
and ate your new mink stole,
For quick and courteous service call
A-B-C Pest Control!

FWIW:

Weatherman still has rain % in the forecast overnight Fri. and into Sat. morning, but the odds and amounts have been backed way down from earlier this week. One forecast predicted rain will be done around Noon.

As LAGA4 corrected, Amon G. Carter is a grass field, it could be a little slippery but should not be soggy.

 

TCU site says they’d rather have Zach Evans over Bijan. Now that’s funny!
HORNS UP! 45-20

 

No

No surprise when some prefers Mary Ann to Ginger. Evans is talented and if he isn't the disruptive force he was in high school...

 

tcu - 38

Texas - 27

Gotta go with the stinkn' nasty roaches until Texas proves they can win on the field.

 

Horns 40
Frogs 21

 

Keep checking... rain chances keep going down!

 

Evans is a beast. Wasn't a 5 star for nothing. He's got the talent. I think we do enough however.
