No. 8 Oklahoma State will be on the road Saturday at No. 13 TCU in a battle of the Big 12’s last two remaining undefeated teams and conference championship game implications on the line. The Cowboys outlasted a feisty Texas Tech team 41-31 last week behind 18 unanswered points, with quarterback Spencer Sanders posting 353 total yards and three touchdowns.
TCU followed up its massive win over Oklahoma with a 38-31 victory over No. 19 Kansas. The Frogs, which trailed 17-10 early in the third quarter, scored a go-ahead touchdown with just 1:36 remaining. Wide receiver Quentin Johnston had a breakout game with 14 catches for 206 yards and a touchdown in the back-and-forth shootout.
The last time these two teams played, Oklahoma State crushed TCU 63-17, handing the Frogs their worst loss in the history of the series. The Cowboys rushed for 447 yards and eight touchdowns against a putrid Frogs defense, including 134 yards and two touchdowns from running back Dominic Richardson.

Fast improvement: TCU averaged just 5.3 wins per season over the past three years, but it already has five wins five games into the Sonny Dykes era. Dykes and his staff have simplified the game and allowed the impressive playmakers on TCU’s roster to just go out and execute. The last three games — at SMU, vs. Oklahoma, at Kansas — were big, emotional games with national attention. However, TCU has handled the moment well and given itself a chance to reach bowl eligibility halfway through the season. The bulk of the Big 12 schedule remains ahead, but the Frogs deserve credit for finding a plan of attack so quickly.
