The Texas Longhorns (3-1, 1-0) head to Cowtown this week to face the TCU Horned Frogs (2-1, 0-0), a team that has had their number more times than not over the last decade. Gary Patterson is nothing short of masterful in his pre-Texas game preparation, and the Longhorns should expect to see a Horned Frog team that is ready to play on Saturday.
A win sets the Longhorns up with a perfect conference record and Big 12 title aspirations as they head into the Red River Shootout next week. A loss derails the momentum established since the loss in Fayetteville and makes the preseason goal of a conference championship much more difficult to achieve. The Big 12 is up for grabs and Texas needs a win against TCU in order to stake their claim.
