No. 15 TCU is seeking to move to 2-0 on the season this weekend against Arkansas after enduring a tougher-than-anticipated game against South Dakota State.

Head coach Gary Patterson, wide receiver Desmon White, and defensive end James McFarland spoke to the media Tuesday. Here's the five things you need to know from the presser:

Patterson's not happy with the defensive effort from the Frogs last week.

Ranthony Texada, Travin Howard, and Denzel Johnson hadn't been through the full series of practices for TCU, and according to Gary Patterson, it showed on Saturday. But during Sunday's video review, he laid down the law. "If they weren't listening to me before, they are now," Patterson said Tuesday.

The coach thinks his defense can play much better than they did against the Jackrabbits. "I wasn't really happy with anything defensively last week," Patterson said, although he did give credit to defensive ends McFarland and Carraway for their fourth-quarter performances. Ty Summers may start at linebacker as Patterson said his team "didn't tackle well" against SDSU. But this defense has been put on notice by their coach that he expects better.

Kenny Hill is locked into the starting quarterback role.

Patterson said before the season that Foster Sawyer would see some time behind center, but after Hill's award-winning performance against SDSU, that seems less likely. Desmon White and James McFarland each spoke to Hill's leadership ability, and Patterson said he was happy that his new quarterback was able to go up-tempo on the first possession.

What pleased the head coach the most was that he didn't see many passes that required TCU receivers to steal balls away from defenders. Hill settled down after the two picks -- although his reaction may not have been exactly what Patterson was looking for -- and he was able to solidify his role as TCU's starter.

TCU is expecting a physical matchup against Arkansas.

Patterson said the biggest difference between Arkansas and South Dakota State is in athleticism. "Offensively, they're very physical up front," Patterson said. "We have to be able to handle the rush." McFarland said there's no doubt as to what Razorback head coach Bret Bielema is planning.

"They like to run the ball," McFarland said. "They like to keep the ball, time of possession is one of their main focuses. We just have to keep the ball out of their hands and stop the run, and if we do that, we'll be successful." Patterson summed up the Razorbacks' direct style as well: "They don't play any basketball. They come right at you."

The Frogs avoided any major health issues in week one.

Last year, it seemed for Frog fans as though TCU lost a starter every game. That didn't happen in week one, as freshman wide receiver Isaiah Graham is the only player banged up. The Frogs will return sophomore wideout Jarrison Stewart Saturday as well. After an up-and-down game like last Saturday's, TCU should count their blessings that they're healthy leading up to the ground-and-pound game Arkansas will take to Fort Worth.

This is a big game for the TCU program.

Although nobody on the TCU roster or coaching staff will admit it outright, this is a marquee game for the Frogs. The last time TCU played an SEC school in the regular season was in the opening game of 2013, when they lost to LSU. Patterson termed this game a "stretch game," in order to see how good his team really is. The Frogs are favored, and are ranked higher in the polls than Arkansas. But in a night game under the Amon G. Carter Stadium lights, it's going to feel like a top-five matchup.
