After beating San Diego St. 41-7 Saturday night, the Frogs have found their way back into the CollegeFootballNews.com Top 25 Poll. Where does TCU rank?

CFN complete Top 25


24. TCU (5-1)
W, San Diego State 41-7
next game: at Colorado State

The Ranking Should Be Higher Because … TCU's lone blemish is a loss at Oklahoma. Boo hoo. 117 other teams would probably lose in Norman. This really might turn out to be a better team than BYU and Utah, and the chances will come soon.

Ranking Should Be Lower Because ...the best win was over Stanford. There's still the prove-it factor with this bunch. The defense might be crushing and killing, but the offense, outside of the blowout over San Diego State, isn't anything special.


TCU’s 5-1 record equals its best start to a season in the last five years. On Saturday night the Frogs improved to 47-6 in their last 53 home games in Amon G. Carter Stadium.
