Five CFP thoughts | Dallas Morning News
Some interesting points throughout.
2. Baylor, TCU have work to do. Baylor and TCU each have a loss, coming against Oklahoma and Oklahoma State respectively. The losses in themselves are not horrendous, but it hurts to lose an opportunity at a quality win. Both teams are not totally eliminated from the playoff as of yet, but both need help to get back in the mix. TCU fell all the way down to No. 18 after struggling against Kansas last week. Baylor sits at No. 10 in the country after a tough loss to Oklahoma. The Bears can't be too disappointed, as they are still within striking distance. TCU has two games against top-10 teams to prove themselves.

It's not going to be easy, but the Frogs can come away with a win.
The seventh-ranked Sooners will try to continue their pursuit of the program's first Big 12 title since 2012 on Saturday night when they host the No. 11 Horned Frogs, who hope to turn things around in time to earn a shot at a second straight conference crown.
How Boykin, Doctson injuries affect TCU's approach to the Big 12 title race | Dallas Morning News
Sawyer has the edge to get the start if Boykin can't go.
Patterson said Boykin (right ankle) would only need practices on Thursday and Friday to get ready because of his familiarity with the TCU system. If Boykin can't go, then Patterson said redshirt freshman Foster Sawyer has a slight edge to step into the starting spot.
Five things TCU fans need to know about Oklahoma | Dallas Morning News
We'll see how the offense in its current form can produce against the Sooner defense.
3. The Big 12's best defense. This is not up for debate. The Sooners have far and away been the league's best defense, as evidenced by their statistics through conference play. Oklahoma leads the Big 12 in scoring defense (18.9 points per game allowed), total defense (325.4 yards per game allowed), rushing defense (150.6 ypg allowed), passing defense (174.9 ypg allowed), forced turnovers (18) and sacks (30). Of particular import to TCU fans should be this nugget: Oklahoma -- led by cornerback Jordan Thomas -- shut down star Baylor wide receiver Corey Coleman to the tune of three catches for 51 yards and no touchdowns Saturday. Thomas wasn't even covering Coleman when he broke off his biggest play that night. Can a banged-up Josh Doctson do better than his fellow Biletnikoff Award semifinalist?

If he's healthy and able to play these last two weeks, he'll have a great shot at taking home the award.
Doctson leads the nation with 1,327 receiving yards while his 14 touchdown catches are tied for second. His 79 receptions are fifth. He is the only player nationally to rank in the top 5 in all three categories which have set TCU single-season records.
