The Great Horned Frog and the Longhorn: A Tale of Victory... and Maybe a Few Tears
Ah, the age-old question that keeps Texas fans up at night (or maybe that's just the strong coffee): how many times has TCU beaten Texas? Well, grab your favorite beverage, buckle up, buttercup, because the answer is...
More times than you've been to the gym this year! **(Don't worry, Texas fans, we still love you... mostly.) **
That's right, folks. TCU has emerged victorious over the Longhorns on enough occasions to make a grown man in burnt orange shed a tear (or two). Now, how many times exactly? Let's just say it's a number that would make Gary Patterson proud (and that's saying something).
Here's a quick history lesson for those who need a refresher (or maybe a victory lap, depending on your allegiances):
- Back in the day: TCU actually had a pretty good run against Texas in the early days, leaving the Longhorns feeling a bit deflated. We're talking about the golden age of upsets, folks!
- The tables turn: Then came a long period of dominance for Texas, where TCU wins were about as rare as a decent cup of coffee at a gas station. Let's just say the Horned Frogs were feeling the heat.
- The modern era: Fast forward to TCU joining the Big 12. Suddenly, it's payback time! The Horned Frogs have been racking up the wins against the Longhorns, proving that size isn't everything (although a good defense certainly helps).
So, to answer your question definitively, TCU has beaten Texas more times than Gary Patterson has blinked. (Which, let's be honest, is probably a very high number.)
But hey, don't let that discourage you, Texas fans! There's always next year...or the year after that. Besides, a little friendly rivalry is what makes college football great, right? (Right? Wink wink)**
