Can TCU Recover From Loss In Big 12 Opener?
Last week, the TCU Horned Frogs suffered their first loss of the 2024 college football season, going down 35-34 at home against the UCF Knights. TCU's defense let it down in that game, as they allowed more points to UCF than they did in their first two games of the season combined. Here, the Horned Frogs will need to be better on the defensive side of the ball if they want to avoid a second straight loss and a loss to their crosstown rivals from SMU.
SMU Offense Looks to Get Back On Track
Just like TCU, the SMU Mustangs suffered their first loss of the 2024 season last time out. Fortunately for SMU, that loss did not come to a conference opponent in the ACC, as they lost to BYU of the Big 12 by a score of 18-15. Still, SMU's offensive performance in that game was once again alarming. The Mustangs scored just 15 points and have now disappointed on that side of the ball in both of their games against FBS opponents this season after struggling to score for much of their season opener against Nevada.
TCU vs SMU Best Bet
This TCU vs SMU game is a non-conference contest but it feels very significant for both teams, both because of the geographic rivalry between them and because neither team wants to give back into conference play on a two-game losing streak. Look for TCU to cover the number in this game, as their defense should be able to win the day against an SMU team that has been just dreadful when it comes to putting points on the board for most of the season so far.
