All fans attending the Wednesday, November 5 football game featuring the TCU Horned Frogs and the Louisville Cardinals are encouraged to wear purple to the game to support the Frogs in a key Conference USA matchup. In addition, the first 2,000 students to enter Amon G. Carter Stadium will receive a free purple t-shirt.
The Frogs enter the contest with an 8-0 record overall and are 5-0 in Conference USA play. They are ranked 12th in the latest BCS Standings, are 13th in the USA Today/ESPN Coaches poll and are 15th in this week's Associated Press poll. When the Frogs take on the 25th-ranked Cardinals (7-1, 3-1), it will mark the first time two ranked teams have faced each other in Amon G. Carter Stadium since the 12th-ranked Frogs took on the 10th-ranked Texas Longhorns in 1984.
A national television audience will be watching the game on ESPN2 and a national radio audience can hear the call on Westwood One stations around the country. The Frogs are tied with Oklahoma for the nation's longest winning streak at 10 games and TCU will be putting its 11-game home winning streak on the line when they face the Cardinals.
Before the 6:30 p.m. game, TCU and Nokia will be hosting the Nokia Sugar Bowl Tour. Fans will be able to test all the latest products from Nokia and will have an opportunity to win a trip to the 2004 Nokia Sugar Bowl. Pregame festivities will also include two concerts in front of Amon G. Carter Stadium with "Wakefield" performing at 3:30 p.m. and "The Riddlin Kids" at 5:00 p.m.
