TCU head coach Gary Patterson was not pleased when his team suffered a 42-34 loss to SMU in the Battle for the Iron Skillet on Saturday. However, Patterson was more upset when SMU tried to plant its flag on the Horned Frogs' logo at midfield, leading to his special assistant, Jerry Kill, getting injured during the incident.
Kill suffered a concussion after reportedly being knocked down twice during the scuffle, including once by TCU players.
“I cannot substantiate that it was a SMU or TCU person, but it did happen,” Patterson said Tuesday during a news conference.
