It doesn’t get easier for Kansas State Football with TCU on the schedule

Former Wildcat Gary Patterson has built his own little dynasty at TCU. Texas Christian has a great chance at challenging the Sooners for the Big 12 title.

Darrius Anderson is on the Doak Walker watch list to start the season. He is also on the Maxwell Award watch list. He is currently the TCU career leader in yards per rush averaging 6.8 yards per attempt.

The starting quarterback has yet to be determined and the receiving core is young, but Patterson is a mastermind at bringing in talent and making them shine.

Youth and inexperience may play as a fault this season, but they will be in the Big 12 discussion for the entirety of the season. TCU has become a top 25 mainstay and is one of the most respected programs in college football at the moment.

This game will have to be won in a completely different manner than the game at West Virginia. This is one of those games where it will be wise to take the “over”.

Talent and coaching usually outweigh coaching by itself. Snyder probably has some tricks up his sleeve for his one-time understudy. This would be a huge win against what should be a top 10 team come game time.
