A few takeaways from the weekend's college news:

-- TCU's offense didn't exactly light things up in its spring game. Exactly one touchdown was scored. So is the lack of scoring something that should bother TCU fans until September? Probably not. Coach Gary Patterson would sooner reveal his Social Security number on the Internet than anything useful to opponents in a spring game. New play-caller Sonny Cumbie knows his way around an offense. Remember that back in spring 2014 in the move to the Air Raid, the TCU offense sputtered in the spring game too. It got better soon. That said, more than a few passes were dropped reminiscent of last season. That's not the fault of vanilla play-calling.

-- Oklahoma freshman quarterback Chris Robison and walk-on defensive back Ronnie LaRue were arrested on public intoxication charges in the wee hours after the Oklahoma spring game. Sooner after, Sooner fans took to comment sections and Twitter to note it wasn't a big deal. They're right. By itself, it isn't. But when you stack that on top of the Baker Mayfield and the Parrish Cobb arrest and you go back a couple of years to Joe Mixon, etc., it just continues a narrative that Bob Stoops and Co. could do without and will continue to linger.

-- SMU football coach Chad Morris thanked his fans after Saturday's spring game and suggested that 2017 would bring the "best SMU team we've had in quite some time." Nor did he back away in an interview a short time later. "This will be the best we've been since I've been here," Morris said. "What does best mean? I don't know. We'll talk about that in December. But we've got a chance and we'll be a hard out for somebody." Coming off a 5-7 season last year, could eight or nine wins be possible with a lot of top skill guys back, especially if the Mustangs get more consistent play at quarterback? We'll see.
