TCU comes into this game optimistic about the upcoming season with a new head coach and a talented roster, while the Buffaloes are looking to rebuild after they lost a lot of talent through the transfer portal, and have been picked by many college football analysts to finish last in the Pac-12.
TCU head coach So nny Dykes has been the head man at Louisiana Tech, California and most recently, SMU, with a career record of 71-63. He has high expectations for his new team in 2022 and said: “TCU is about winning championships… I want to coach in this kind of environment where there has been that level of success and there’s that level of expectations, as well.”
The Horned Frogs have a good problem at quarterback, with three talented signal callers. Senior Max Duggan, who started 29 games for TCU; redshirt freshman Chandler Morris, who had a 531-yard game in 2021; and redshirt freshman Sam Jackson, who threw one pass last year for 77 yards to Taye Barber. Coach Dykes has said these players will split time to start the season.
