GAME NOTES

ABOUT THE GAME

• No. 13 TCU returns home to host No. 8 Oklahoma State on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. on ABC.
• TCU is the only undefeated FBS program, out of 12, in the state of Texas and one of 15 nationally.
• The Horned Frogs are 5-0 for the first time since 2017, when Head Coach Sonny Dykes was on staff as an offensive analyst.
• Dykes is just the second head coach in program history, joining Francis Schmidt in 1929, to win his opening five games.
• Including his time at SMU, Dykes has his team with a 5-0 record for the fourth consecutive season.
• At No. 13 in this week’s Associated Press poll, the Horned Frogs have their highest ranking since finishing the 2017 season at No. 9. Dykes was on staff that year as an offensive analyst.
• Saturday will mark TCU’s first home game as a ranked team against a ranked opponent since Oct. 7, 2017, when the No. 8 Horned Frogs beat No. 23 West Virginia, 31-24, with ESPN’s College GameDay on site.
• TCU is playing a ranked opponent for a third consecutive game for the first time since the final three contests in 2015, when it lost 30-29 at No. 7 Oklahoma before beating No. 7 Baylor 28-21 in double overtime and No. 15 Oregon 47-41 in triple OT in the Alamo Bowl.
• TCU has trailed for a total of just 16:31 this season. The Horned Frogs fell behind Kansas for 1:07 in the third quarter last week, their first deficit since the opening 24 seconds of the second quarter of the season opener at Colorado.
• TCU leads the nation in yards per play (8.1) while ranking third in both scoring offense (46.4 points per game) and total offense (530.0 yards per game).
