You’re all jacked up, ready to hit somebody before, suddenly, you have to go into relax mode.

That’s what TCU had to do when its game against Kansas State was delayed almost three hours after a lightning strike near Bill Snyder Family Stadium on Saturday. The original 11 a.m. start was first pushed back to 11:45 a.m., then again to 2 p.m. Even after three quarters were in the books another lightning strike forced an additional hour-long delay.

What a beating.

Horned Frogs’ players took it in stride, coach Gary Patterson said after the 26-6 win.
