4. TCU Horned Frogs (Record: 5-4)

Following its 62-22 route over Baylor two weeks ago, TCU had a much needed late bye week to recover from an otherwise intense season.

Quarterback Kenny Hill looked to have settled in against Baylor, which was a huge vote of confidence for Gary Patterson and the Horned Frogs’ offense. Throwing for 244 yards and rushing for 88, Hill seemed to have a balanced control of the offense, which relied heavily on the run against Baylor. Oklahoma State isn’t Baylor, and for the Horned Frogs to have success against the Cowboys, that balanced attack will need continue, and the defense will have to show up against a confident and mature Mason Rudolph. One statistic to note, is that each team averages 29 points-per-game. This game has the potential to be yet another Big 12 nailbiter.

TCU still needs a win to become bowl eligibile, although, with Texas and Kansas State to finish the season after Oklahoma State, there are plenty of chances.
