Even though they're both government-run schools, it was GREAT to see yet another football team from the BBQ belt in Conservative Dixie beat one from liberal, latte-sipping Oregon. In a perfect world, my dream would be for a private Southern Christian school (such as TCU) to be a team from a Marxist mecca such as Cal-Berkeley.

I’m a TCU grad and a standing joke is to call the school “
Texas Christian (do not let the name fool you) University. The school is Christian in name only. :( In fact, there is a movement to change the name of the school because Lib professors think having “Christian” in the name harms graduates’ job prospects. We real Christians think the name change is a good idea: it does away with false advertising.
You must remember, the Brite Divinity School invited Jeremiah Wright to campus shortly after his theology was exposed to the world.

Other than that, TCU is a fine school with great students, but as is the case with much of academia, many of the professors are to the left of Pol Pot.
