Arizona vs TCU Prediction

I’m grabbing the points with TCU. While Arizona’s offense is strong, TCU’s defense is 14th in total defense, 16th in passing defense, and eighth in scoring defense. It’s the sort of unit that can keep Arizona in check. TCU keeps games low-scoring and forces opponents into tough situations, which is exactly the kind of group that can hang with a favored Arizona team on the road. The Horned Frogs just found a way to grind out a win against Kansas, and that same toughness travels. Arizona had issues against Texas Tech despite playing a backup quarterback.

Arizona sits at just 3-5 ATS and is coming off a shaky loss, so the points look attractive here. TCU doesn’t need to light up the scoreboard. It just needs its defense to do what it’s done all season. Give me the Horned Frogs and the points in Tucson, especially if you’re getting the hook on top of the free touchdown. Hooks on key numbers are lovely.
