Against No.9 Oklahoma on Wednesday, Miller dropped 27 points, just two shy of his career-high, with a season-best nine rebounds in the 80-71 win. Shooting 11-17 from the field, his 27 points put him at 1,000 over his TCU career, only the 40th Frog to ever reach this mark.

Following that, Miller scored a team-high 13 points and hit the go-ahead shot with 6.7 seconds left in TCU's 68-67 win over No.2 Houston.

Miller was the Horned Frogs' best player afyer only the second time in program history that TCU recorded back-to-back wins over top 10 ranked teams. It is the third time the Ontario native has earned this honor in his career. Miller even earned his degree in sociology and general studies last week. Have a year so far.

Emanuel Miller has emerged as the Frogs' go-to option and one of the best players in the Big 12, if not the nation. He has helped TCU become ranked 19 in the nation as they put themselves in position to make a run in the NCAA Tournament.

Catch Miller and the Frogs next at Cincinnati on Tuesday at 6 p.m. CT on Big 12 Now on ESPN+.
