Over on the TCU side, they’ve got three games in the bag so far this year. The first outing came last Monday against New Orleans, and the Frogs were stunned with a 44-28 deficit in the first half. TCU fought back from there on a 46-34 run but it wasn’t enough in a 78-74 loss. Leading the way in the losing effort was David Punch with 19 points and eight boards in 30 minutes. Micah Robinson added 14 points with six rebounds, while both Jayden Pierre and Xavier Edmonds each had 11 points and two rebounds in the defeat. TCU was able to bag a win in their second game last Thursday versus St. Francis PA. In that one the Frogs went into the break with a 53-29 edge, and closed on a 51-34 run for a 104-63 victory in the end. Tanner Toolson topped the team this time with 25 points and two boards, while Robinson doubled up on 13 points with 10 rebounds. Edmonds added 12 points with nine boards and Punch scored 11 with eight rebounds and three assists in the win.

TCU vs Michigan Prediction
I’ll take a stab on TCU. The Frogs really need to get off to a fast start here however, unlike their matchup with Lamar this week. That said, everything worked out okay for TCU in that one as the team eventually shot 50.9 percent from the field with a 32-24 rebounding advantage. There’s plenty to clean up though, like the 12 turnovers and the 16-of-24 (66.7 percent) from the free throw line. Still, the Frogs have scored well this year with 74 or more points in all three games so far.
As for Michigan, they were lucky to escape Wake Forest in their latest outing. The Wolverines were sloppy with the ball, coughing up 17 turnovers. The 4-of-25 (16 percent) from 3-point range and the 25-of-37 (67.6 percent) from the line were both sub-par as well. Michigan needs a much better effort in this one.
