==History==
===2013===
TCU began playing football in 2013, originally under the leadership of head coach HookEm. After his departure, midway through the season, coach Pepper was hired. He, too, left after only a couple losses. Current head coach DangerZoneh then took the reins of a 1-6 TCU team. He finished 1-5 with a win over Houston. Kicker Stephen Morris was named to the CFBHC all american team.
===2014===
TCU's begin to 2014 was very similar to their 2013. Beginning with losses to Ole Miss and Tennessee, TCU began to turn things around with a win against Duke. However, they lost the next three to Missouri, Nebraska, and Kansas.
TCU hit a major bump in the road after the Kansas game when they faced OU. Ray Lee Coia intercepted a Robertt Price pass, and on the return, was hit by Oklahoma wide receiver Tai Miller. Both broke their arms and were injured for the season. This injury marked a rallying point for the Horned Frogs, who have since gone on to win their next three games against #4 Texas and #20 Baylor and Iowa State.

==Home Stadium==
The Horned Frogs have always played their home football games at Amon G. Carter Stadium, located on the campus of TCU. Amon G. Carter Stadium predates the Horned Frogs program and boats an impressive history of it's own.
Named for the famous Fort Worth newspaper magnate who made the original donation to finance the stadium, Amon G. Carter Stadium opened in 1930 with an original seating capacity of 22,000. 
Renovations in 1947 and 1955 added additional seating and an upper deck, which increased capacity to roughly 45,000. The stadium remained in this configuration until 2010, when a major renovation reduced the entire stadium to its original lower bowl, before erecting a new stadium on the same site. The design of the current Amon Carter stadium was influenced heavily by the surrounding architecture of Fort Worth, with emphasis on Art Deco style. The Frogs will open the new stadium in time for the 2013 season.
Amon G. Carter stadium features a natural grass field and a seating capacity of roughly 45,000. Standing-room only concourses allow capacity to exceed this number when ticket demand exceeds seating availability. The 2012-2012 renovation added a 54 ft. video board over the North endzone, with a smaller videoboard located in the Southeast corner.
