TCU HC Sonny Dykes Ejected vs. SMU After 2 Unsportsmanlike Penalties

It's been a tough Saturday for Sonny Dykes.

The TCU head coach was ejected from his team's game during the third quarter of the "Battle for the Iron Skillet" game against SMU due to a second unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. His Horned Frogs were losing 41-21 at the time.

TCU has won the last two meetings between the two programs and has won nine of the last 11.

The last time SMU defeated TCU, ironically, came when Dykes was the team's head coach in 2021.

He was ejected after arguing with the referees after a holding call negated a kickoff return for a touchdown. He was flagged with the first penalty for the initial argument and was issued a second one for his continuous anger towards the officials.

TCU is 2-1 and will hope to mount a comeback in Dykes absence to take a strong record into conference play. Meanwhile, he will have to watch the rest of the game from the locker room.
