Real Men Wear Blue

So, TCU has just "had our number"

4 years in a row? But they're not really better. (despite going to two BCS games in that same span--something BYU hasn't been able to do since the inception of the BCS 14 years ago)

Keep telling yourself that, friend. Meanwhile, you might want to get those goggles examined.
