I will back a Gary Patterson-coached coming off a terrible performance and long rest against a West Virginia team that is unbeaten but has yet to face much in the way of stiff competition. TCU has underachieved thus far and nearly lost to Kansas before pulling out a 24-23 win two weeks ago. The horned Frogs have had two weeks to work on their shortcomings and I will take Patterson in an underdog role against the Mountaineers, who could be in for a letdown after blowing out Texas Tech last week.
Tricky game here because the Mountaineers come in undefeated and have done it with their ground game and surprisingly good defense. They match up well with TCU and can go toe-to-toe with the Horned Frogs athletically. I think TCU has a bit more juice in its passing game with QB Kenny Hill. We're in for a shootout. West Virginia escaped with the win but doesn't cover.
