So, I am more pro-MWC than a fan of any particular team, so I have to say that I am rooting for TCU to hold its own. Any predictions on how the rest of their seasons will go, given their opponents? What bowl games could they have a shot at? Will they win the MWC conference (guessing "yes" on that one)?

Jump, o hornèd frogs, jump! :P

I think Herbie said he thinks TCU could go to the National Championship. I think the Fiesta Bowl's the most likely for them, although it would be awesome to get a Mountain West team in the National Championship.
As a sidenote, I think their mascot looks exactly like Geodude.

Mr roommate thinks that there is a strong chance that TCU could go to nationals. He also thinks that BYU will beat Utah this year as they have a new quarterback and all, so BYU may be Mountain West Champions.

Wait, the BYU-Utah game isn't the MWC Championship game. (I don't think . . . ?) Isn't it pretty clear that TCU would win that? Are they not in our conference, like I thought?

I think he is assuming that that if TCU goes to a BCS bowl game, then they won't be able to be MWC Champions. I have no clue myself.

That's not quite how that works. At this point, unless something drastic happens, TCU are going to be the conference champs, they're going to a BCS bowl, and Utah and BYU will go to the Las Vegas and San Diego bowls (not necessarily in that order).
