Time for another four-game season at TCU.
Why not?
The first one went pretty well.
The Horned Frogs went into the first four games of 2017 aiming to get at least three out of the four against Jackson State, Arkansas, SMU and Oklahoma State. Gary Patterson would have been happy with that.
Instead, the Frogs exceeded their head coach’s expectations and went 4-0.
The last of the four wins, at then-No. 6 Oklahoma State, got the Frogs into the AP Top 10 and back on the national map. Instantly, they became contenders for the Big 12 championship and College Football Playoff.
