Keep reading for our breakdown of TCU vs Baylor from Waco.

TCU Looks For Third Straight Win, Bowl Eligibility

The TCU Horned Frogs are 5-3 overall and 3-2 in Big 12 play. They can secure a sixth win and bowl eligibility with a win this weekend on the road against the Baylor Bears. Despite some inconsistency on defense, the TCU offense has been their saving grace in recent games, scoring 35 or more points in two of their last four outings. If the connection between quarterback Josh Hoover and wide receiver Jack Bech continues to be a problem for opposing defenses, TCU could get to six wins with a victory in this matchup.

Baylor Also Seeking Third Straight Win

Another team on a two-game winning streak in the Big 12 is Baylor, who has worked their way to 4-4 overall and 2-3 in conference play. The Bears have wins over Texas Tech and Oklahoma State in their last two games, with Baylor averaging 48.5 points per game over those two contests. Baylor is playing a TCU team that has also been vulnerable on defense over the course of this season, which could mean another big offensive performance that leads to a win.

TCU vs Baylor Prediction

Our best bet for TCU vs Baylor on Saturday is for the over to hit. Baylor's offense has been firing on all cylinders of late and that should continue against an up-and-down TCU defense. Meanwhile, the passing game of TCU should continue to be a threat to opposing defenses in this game, as both teams should do their share of scoring in what should be a fun matchup in the state of Texas.
