TCU Horned Frogs vs Oklahoma State Cowboys prediction
The TCU Horned Frogs are coming off a bad home loss to Iowa State, but I guess that’s just the nature of the Big 12. The conference is stacked and any given night any team could beat anybody. Even the middle of the road teams show flashes of being a good team. With all that said, TCU is the easily better team here and Oklahoma State has shown during this losing stretch it lacks the offensive depth to hang most nights in conference play. I’d need more points to pull the trigger on the Cowboys. I’ll lay the reasonable number with TCU on the road.
