Ahead of Saturday afternoon's game against Baylor, TCU head coach Sonny Dykes made it very clear he knew his Horned Frogs were in for a challenge when facing off against quarterback Sawyer Robertson and the Bears offense.
“I know his father well. We played sports against each other growing up,” Dykes said earlier this week. “He was a first-round draft pick in baseball. He was a lot better baseball player than I was. We’ve known each other for a long time. We tried to recruit Sawyer here when he left Mississippi State. There’s a relationship there … really proud of Sawyer. He’s a first class kid. I root for him every Saturday except for this Saturday.”
“...They’re very balanced in what they want to do. They’ve got two strong running backs,” Dykes said. “I think their offensive line is very experienced. You look at the game last year, it kind of boiled down to their ability to run the ball down the stretch, and they strung a drive together at the end of the game to beat us. “That’s going to be big for us Saturday. That’s what good offenses do, you have to stop both running the ball and throwing the football.”
While Dykes praised Robertson and the Bears offense ahead of the game, the Horned Frogs have done their best to contain a team that averages more than 36 points per game. Robertson is just 16-of-34 passing with 175 yards and one touchdown as TCU holds a 35-21 lead.
Just moments after TCU scored a touchdown to take that 35-21 lead, the game entered a delay with serious weather in the area.
"lightening detected in the area," TCU announced, revealing the game was in a delay.
