Ask yourself these questions :
with boykin and doctson is tcu elite? Yes....
With those two players playing could they handle Oregon? Yes....
are either of those two players playing? No
has tcu and its backups had time to prepare for a game without Boykin? No
so is tcu an elite team without their two best players? No, they are average
is Oregon missing any of its key players that they need in a game like this? No...
does Oregon have their starting qb and best WR's and RBs? Yes
are they elite with Vernon Adams healthy and Royce freeman and the whole crew? Yes...
The line is currently -6.5 Oregon.
why would you ask a now desperate, dysfunctional, and average tcu team to cover against a locked and loaded Oregon squad?
youre asking an inferior team to cover less than a td against a far superior team..... Doesn't make sense

I've heard a lot of guys on here reference him but I've never seen any of his plays...don't even pay attention in all honesty. I just think the Quacker's take care of tcu...would have much rather seen a full tcu squad ball out against a full Oregon squad..would have likely been the best bowl game other than the natty
To play devil's advocate, check out the game against Kansas. Boykin got hurt early and both backups played. Neither was that good. That game was close and Kansas could've won that game. Kansas is the worst big 12 team I've seen in maybe ever, and one of the worst teams in all of football this season.
I made this comment yesterday afternoon with respect to TCU and the talent they have with their skill players. Had Kolhauser just distributed the ball in the first half, instead of the over throws and under throws, TCU would have been able to compete. He picked it up in the second half and the TCU defense got a couple stops. Hats off to the Frogs, and to GP for lighting his team up at halftime. The loss of Adams was huge, but so was the loss of Boykin, Doctson, and the top 2 OL. They gutted out a big win.
