As they start to pop up on some College Football Playoff projections, the sixth-ranked TCU Horned Frogs are both embracing the thought and keeping it at a distance.
“It’s cool, but it’s a long way to go,” quarterback Kenny Hill said Tuesday in a talk with reporters. “We’ve played five games. We’ve still got another seven and hopefully eight. It’s a long way to go.”
But the quality of the Frogs’ first two Big 12 victories — at Oklahoma State and against West Virginia — is hard to ignore. Those teams are a combined 7-1 outside of the TCU games.
