ABOUT THE GAME

*TCU travels to No. 21/17 Oklahoma State for a Saturday 11 a.m. contest on FOX.
*By inheriting Texas A&M's Big 12 schedule, in which the Aggies owed the Cowboys an extra home game, the Horned Frogs are playing in Stillwater for the second straight season. Oklahoma State's first Big 12 visit to TCU and Fort Worth will be in 2014.
*The Horned Frogs are playing their fourth current top-25 opponent in seven games this season.
*As TCU's head coach, Gary Patterson is 14-12 against ranked opponents.
*The game features the all-time winningest coaches at both schools. Patterson has 119 victories at TCU, while Mike Gundy has 71 for Oklahoma State.
*TCU has an 11 a.m. kickoff for the second straight week and fourth time in seven games this season. The Horned Frogs are 5-1 in 11 a.m. games over the last two years.
*TCU is leaving Texas for just the second time this season. Both trips have been to Oklahoma in the last two weeks. TCU played at OU on Oct. 5.
