What could’ve been Dublin Delight turned into Dublin Disaster for the TCU Horned Frogs, who suffered a season-opening 15-10 loss to Bill Belichick and the North Carolina Tar Heels on Saturday. TCU committed 11 penalties for 100 yards, turned the ball over once and couldn’t score a point for three consecutive quarters.

Frog fans, we want to hear your thoughts! Who’s most to blame for the team’s loss? Does the blame fall on head coach Sonny Dykes for the lack of discipline? Or does it fall on new quarterback Jaden Craig, who fumbled and went without a touchdown pass in his TCU debut? Is there blame for new offensive coordinator Gordon Sammis, whose vanilla playcalling and conservative approach led to a lack of explosive plays Saturday afternoon?

Craig finished 20-of-32 for 175 yards with four carries for -22 yards. Jeremy Payne was by far the best player for the Horned Frogs, rushing for a game-high 142 yards on 25 carries (5.7 yards per carry). Ed Small led the wide receivers, catching nine passes for 65 yards. Ka’Morreun Pimpton added a 40-yard reception. TCU has two weeks off before taking the field at Amon G. Carter Stadium for a home opener against Grambling on Sept. 12.
