After TCU smoked Oklahoma State 38-13 two weeks ago, the Horned Frogs are officially bowl eligible. This week, the Frogs take on Arizona, which has struggled in Big 12 play this season. In week 4, the Wildcats knocked off #10 Utah 23-10. Since that game, Arizona's one win comes against Houston this past weekend 27-3.

It's safe to say that momentum will have a huge influence in TCU's game against the Wildcats on Saturday at 2:00 p.m. Both TCU and Arizona have shown flashes of being elite in the conference but have struggled on the defensive side of the ball for the majority of the season. While TCU has had some key injuries to their defensive line and secondary, according to head coach Sonny Dykes the Frogs are getting some weapons back just in time to finish their season on a high note.

TCU Depth Chart Notes

The starting offense stays the same this week. Shocker, I know, but the Frogs have averaged 33.4 points/game this season. Like many coaches say "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." At Tuesday's midweek press conference, Coach Dykes mentioned that the coaching staff will be using the running back committee they've been using but will continue to give the majority of the carries to whoever is playing the best that game. Cam Cook is coming off of a 2-touchdown game while only having 47 rushing yards. Coach Dykes also said that offensive lineman Ryan Hughes will get a lot of playing time in the remaining two games of the season.

There are some changes on the defensive side of the ball. Most notably, Cooper McDonald and Markis Deal will be available for this weekend's game. Coach Dykes also said that Hakeem Ajijolaiya has been practicing and expects him to be available as well. With the returning defensive linemen and linebacker, the TCU defense returns to one of the healthier defensive groups in the conference.
