Hot summer day in Cowtown? Good thing the pool is just steps from your front door.
TCU fans have plenty to cheer about this week. On Monday night, the Horned Frogs crushed the North Carolina Tar Heels 48-14, spoiling Bill Belichick’s college coaching debut. Quarterback Josh Hoover played sharp with 284 passing yards, while Running Back Kevorian Barnes stole the show with a 75-yard touchdown sprint in the third quarter.
This wasn’t just any win — it was a statement that the Frogs are ready to make noise in the Big 12. Grab tickets to next Saturday’s home game.
