Gary Patterson told SI.com that the way to have a good defense is to have a good offense. No joke– the guru of defense gurus in college said,
“The biggest stat for me, as long as you are not giving up big plays, is the amount of plays that you are on the field. We have averaged less than 60 plays. … It is more of a team concept. … you have to be able to control the football and get people off the field. I have always felt like if you play a 60-play game and 30 of those plays you had a better call than what the offense did, then you are limiting them to 30 plays to be able to score and do things. The less time they spend on the field, the better.”
Sounds simple, when Andy Dalton, Jake Kirkpatrick, Marcus Cannon, Jeremy Kerley, and Jimmy Young are all on the field. But with a new crew taking the reins, will TCU still be able control the football? (more…)

Kibbles and bits about the freshly inked classes of recruits of TCU and its opponents:
Air Force is an out-of-state school that flexes the Texas connection better than most of the others. Its 13 Texan signees (caveat: because AFA signees must jump through more than the usual number of hoops actually to enroll at the Academy, its incoming freshman class is not known until fall) are tied with OU for the second biggest class of Texans enrolling elsewhere. Oklahoma State inked 24 Texans. The Falcons also signed six quarterbacks (quite to Gary Patterson’s tastes). Tim Jefferson and Connor Dietz are a senior and a junior, respectively, so expect at least a couple of these freshmen to remain quarterbacks in college. Many of the Falcons’ commits would have attracted a lot more offers if they had a couple more inches on them. The classic case: QB Dano Graves is a MaxPreps national player of the year, accounting for 85 touchdowns last seasons (good grief!). And he’s 5’9″ and got one 1A offer. He took it. (more…)
