TCU coach sort of compares Minnesota to FCS team

The Big Ten’s darkest timeline continues.

Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY Sports

TCU has done quite well in its first two games this season -- well enough, in fact, to crack the Football Outsiders’ top 25 in F/+. The Big Ten has done quite poorly in its first three weeks this season -- poor enough, in fact, for us to consider the conference adopts dinosaurs with laser beams.

Enter TCU head coach Gary Patterson, whose team just beat the Big Ten’s Minnesota, 30-7.

It's a funny quote out of context, but he probably didn't mean it like that.

TCU travels to play SMU next, before perhaps the toughest possible opening to the Big 12 slate: Oklahoma, Baylor and Oklahoma State.
