99 and one to grow on

Tomorrow the Frogs open the home schedule against ULM (Louisiana-Monroe for those scoring at home!)

It’s also a chance for the Frogs to notch another home victory and get Gary Patterson his 100^th win as TCU head coach. Gary’s not taken with that stat and, frankly, neither am I, but I am intrigued to think about the first 99 wins.

Which one’s the best, the most important, and the most favorite? Obviously, Coach P has taken us on some fun rides. Some entries to ponder while you come up with your own list:

• The win over Southern Miss in the last game of the 2001 season that put the Frogs in a bowl and sent Nebraska (who had beaten the Frogs earlier that year) to the BCS National Championship game;
• The Liberty Bowl win in 2002 over a really good Colorado State team – the Frogs were dominating on defense;
• The big win at home on over Louisville on Thursday night on national TV – remember the Louisville FG attempt bouncing off the crossbar on the last play of the game?
• The win at OU in ‘05;
• The win over Boise State in the “6^th BCS Game” at the Poinsettia Bowl;
• The win at Clemson in 2009, which launched the Frogs’ rocket;
• Any win in 2010;
• The Rose Bowl win

Take time on this Friday to come up with your own Top 10.

And, thanks, Coach P, for the first 99. What’s next?!!

Enjoy your college football weekend, everybody!

Kick ‘Em High!
