Know Your Foe: Five TCU Horned Frogs to know for regular season finale

Oklahoma takes on TCU in their final Big 12 home game to end their regular season. Here are five TCU players to know as the Sooners prepare.

Friday will be an emotional day of celebration. The Oklahoma Sooners (9-2, 6-2 Big 12) will host their Senior Day. This will be the last time the Sooners host a Big 12 game on Owen Field.

The crimson and cream have made it through another Big 12 slate. The chances of earning a trip to Arlington for the Big 12 Championship are slim but not quite zero. The Sooners will need help from other Big 12 members to make that happen.

All Oklahoma can do is worry about finishing their final Big 12 slate with a win at home.

Their opponents were the first Big 12 team not named Oklahoma to make it to the College Football Playoff. Sonny Dykes orchestrated a masterful coaching job to get TCU (5-6, 3-5) to the national championship last year. Things didn’t go so hot in their game against Georgia, but his work speaks for itself.

The Horned Frogs lost a significant amount of production from that team, and this season has hardly been as fruitful. This team can still hang with many teams and is hungry for bowl eligibility. They are one win shy of playing in a bowl game and would love nothing more than to spoil Oklahoma’s festivities and get that sixth victory.

There is no Max Duggan, Quentin Johnston, Kendre Miller, Dee Winters, Steve Avila, or Derius Davis for this year’s TCU Horned Frogs. That group of players was the backbone of last year’s team and a big reason Oklahoma lost 55-24 in Fort Worth last year.

With so many faces gone and off to the NFL, who are the players to know for Sonny Dykes’ team? We break down five TCU Horned Frogs to know ahead for Oklahoma’s regular-season finale.

Oklahoma Sooners vs. No. 24 Oklahoma State Cowboys: Stream, injury report, broadcast info

Trying to figure out where to find Bedlam on Saturday? Here’s how to watch, stream or listen to Oklahoma vs. Oklahoma State. From @john9williams

Oklahoma (5-4, 2-4 Big 12) will face Oklahoma State (7-3, 4-3) on Saturday night in Bedlam, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

The Oklahoma Sooners are looking to end their two-game skid against in-state rival Oklahoma State, who’s been playing some up-and-down football after a 5-0 start. The Cowboys are 2-3 over their last five, and starting quarterback Spencer Sanders has been dealing with a shoulder injury that’s limited him over the last three weeks.

This game has Big 12 title implications for Oklahoma State, who can stay alive with a win over the Sooners. Oklahoma is looking to crack bowl eligibility with a win to avoid missing out on bowl season for the first time since 1998.

Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:

  • Date: Saturday, Nov. 19, 2022
  • Time: 6:30 p.m. CT
  • TV Channel: ABC
