With a Big 12 title on the line, Kansas State looks to play potential spoilers for TCU's bid to the College Football Playoff. ByPatForde reveals his best bet for the Big 12 Championship
The big question heading into the Big 12 Championship is whether TCU gets a bid to the College Football Playoff regardless of the outcome against Kansas State. A win and they are in without controversy but if they lose to the Wildcats, some speculate Ohio State or Alabama may sneak into the playoff.
Currently ranked No. 3, the Horned Frogs put their undefeated record on the line against the Wildcats for the second time this season. After trailing by double-digits in the second half, TCU came back to win the exciting regular season matchup 38-28.Moneyline: TCU | Kansas State Location: AT&T Stadium. Arlington, Texas
The Horned Frogs have their reptilian eyes on the playoff prize now. The defense must contain Deuce Vaughn, but should be better prepared for the Will Howard experience this time than the first meeting in October. In that game, Howard came off the bench in place of injured dual-threat starter Adrian Martinez and K-State changed the offense to utilize Howard’s pocket passing. Howard has been the primary QB for the Wildcats the last three games.
Offensively, Max Duggan & Co. will again be able to spring some big plays on the Wildcats as they did in the first meeting. TCU hasn’t had a negative turnover margin in a game this season, and if that trend continues it will be playoff-bound for sure by mid-afternoon Saturday.
