Things have gone from bad to worse for TCU football in its rivalry game against SMU on Saturday.
Horned Frogs coach Sonny Dykes was ejected from Saturday's game after picking up two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties for arguing with officials, resulting in him being forced out of the game. TCU also faced a 41-21 deficit early in the third quarter at the time of his ejection.

SMU fans waved goodbye as Dykes exited the stadium, which will likely be the last time Dykes appears at Ford Stadium for seasons to come, with the TCU-SMU rivalry ending for the time being after the 2025 season. Dykes coached at SMU from 2018-21 before taking the TCU job the next season.
TCU, two seasons removed from reaching the College Football Playoff national championship game, is 2-1 on the season, and would need to mount a big effort to avoid losing its second game of the season. Dykes has a 91-73 all-time head coaching record, with a 20-10 record with the Horned Frogs.
The matchup, which awards the winner with an iron skillet, is a battle of regional significance in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, as both schools are located in the same metroplex in Texas.
