TCU Football: Sonny Dykes Head Coach at Big 12 Media Days

Dykes said he was proud of the team’s ability to focus on things they couldn’t control. That’s what made his team special.

ARLINGTON, Texas ā€” One of the big questions heading into the upcoming college football season in North Texas is whether TCU football can replicate last year’s success.

The Horned Frogs became the first Texas team to qualify for the College Football Playoffs in 2022, but lost the national title to the Georgia Bulldogs.

“I think we share a vision of what TCU football wants to be. They certainly provide the resources we need…” Dykes said. “[Iā€™m] I am very happy and lucky to be here and excited about this season. ā€

Another part of Dykes’ game plan is to focus on defense. He said the Frogs have addressed this issue with their transfer portal selection.

In addition, some called TCU’s freshman class the best recruits of the Big 12.

Ultimately, however, Dykes said the team will only focus on winning football games and that how well they achieve that goal will depend on the field.

Dykes said TCU will push boundaries as long as it adapts, adapts, is creative and innovative in the currently expanding Big 12 conference.
