Saturday, November 3 was a perfect fall day for the TCU-Kansas State football game in Amon G. Carter Stadium in Fort Worth, except for a strong wind. The 30-mph wind cancelled the scheduled pregame flyover of vintage planes. The strong wind also had an effect on various aspects of the game, which was won by TCU, 14-13.
