TCU Horned Frogs football was created in 1896.

The TCU Horned Frogs is the nickname of the Texas Christian University. Their mascot is a horned frog in reference to the Texas horned lizard which has the scientific name of Phrynosoma cornutum.

They found horned frogs digging holes in the field which now today is the football field and helped make the football field so they made the horned frog there mascot.
