At the request of the Big 12 Conference and television partners ESPN and FOX, TCU's football game at Texas this coming season has been moved from Thanksgiving, Nov. 24, to Friday, Nov. 25.

The Horned Frogs will be playing on Black Friday for the second straight season, having defeated Baylor 28-21 in double overtime this past year.
