Default Re: Another TCU must play....

BYU did exploit TCU's pass defense. However, UNM does not have an NFL caliber reciever that BYU does and their quarterback is not expected to make the same incredible throws that BYUs QB was coming up with.

As far as reasons for the TCU play. They are playing at home. With Ballard at QB they will throw to recievers not named Rogers. They will be able to throw farther than 10 yards down the field with Ballard in as opposed to Gunn.

As far as "New Mexico needs to win, because if they dont TCU has the MWC Title in their hands" that is very far from the true. The MWC has a lot of parity this year which is why the home teams should win most of the games in the conference. Did TCU luckbox there way to a win at BYU, yea probably. However, they will make adjustments (read from SMU game to Utah game) and will score at least 35 points this game. I havent looked at the o/u but I'd be willing to take over as many has 55 points.
