  • BYU @ TCU

    I'm more excited for this game than I have been for any others, except SDSU. Why? Because I'll be in attendance to witness one of Jimmer's miracles. Anyone else going to be at this game?

    How long of a trip is that?

      Yes, I will also be a special witness of the Jimmer in cow town.

        TCU has their first bball sellout in 7+ years but expects that to be a normal thing when they move to the big east:

        With TCU's 2012 switch to the Big East approaching, top 10 opponents will be the norm rather than the exception, which could mean DMC sell-outs will be a regular feat. TCU athletics director Chris Del Conte has already stated that renovations to the DMC will likely be next on the agenda in preparation for the conference switch.
        I suspect that most all the fans at the game will be BYU fans given that the frogs are hosting KU for a baseball game just an hour before tipoff.

          4 hours one way, but as one of Jimmer's disciples it's worth it.

            Wow, I didn't realize it was that close.

              Sadly, I have to go to a firm "retreat" that day (meaning, I have to go to the office at 8am on a Saturday so we can have breakfast pastries and break-out discussion groups).

              A large contingent from my ward is making the trek, however.

                  Does anyone have any thoughts on tomorrow's game? Im trying to turn today into a Funky Friday but Im not excited for this game at all. In fact, I might just tivo it. TCU is horrible.

                  I am leaving now to buy some pho. I am more excited to eat pho than to watch the TCU game.

                      TCU is bad. Plus they kicked off Ronnie Moss, their best scorer and the guy who dropped 27 on us in the last game, so this game should be ugly. It'll be a good tune up game for CSU at home on Wednesday and then Saturday's showdown with SDSU.

                        Yeah if I wasn't going to the game I would just tivo it too. I hope they just give the ball to Jimmer to see how many points he can score in a game.

                          I hope BYU gets up 30 in the 1st half and Jimmer only plays 20 minutes.

                              If that happens I may wonder over to the TCU-KU baseball game to catch the end of it. All my TCU buddies are going to that game instead.
