The Horned Frogs and Cougars haven't played each other since 2007, though this was once among the more storied rivalries in college football. These teams are in the same conference for the third time after playing in the Southwest Conference together from 1976-1995 and Conference USA from 2001-04. Both come into this one 1-1 and only one will walk away with a winning record.
Texas Christian is the -7.5 favorite in this one.
They are rated No. 31 on Sagarin (78.57) while Houston was coming in rated at No. 68 (70.94) and with home field advantage of 2.24. This leaves us with a number of 5.39 TCU for an overlay of 2.
