TCU Football at Baylor: Staff Predictions And Game Previews
The TCU Horned Frogs (10-0, 7-0) look to continue their undefeated season with a trip to Waco to face rival Baylor (6-4, 4-3) in the annual Revivalry Game on Saturday November 19. The game will be at 11 a.m. and can be seen on Fox.
This will be 118th meeting between the two schools. TCU has faced Baylor more than any other opponent in its history. TCU leads the series 57-53-7 and 29-24-1 in Waco. The two teams first met in 1899 in a game that ended up tied 0-0. TCU leads the series 7-3 since TCU joined the Big 12 in 2012.
TCU is a 2.0-point favorite, according to SI Sportsbook. But how does our staff feel the game will go?
In Week 11, eight of our writers had the Frogs winning while three picked Texas. TCU came through with the win, 17-10. Four of our writers are 10-0, just like the Frogs, in their picks this season - Derek, Nathan, Ryann, and Tyler. Last week, thanks to the defensive slugfest that took place in Austin, no one came that close to the final, but the "closest" went to Derek with his prediction of TCU 24 - Texas 22 (the final score was TCU 17 - Texas 10. Nathan and Derek are currently at the top of the leaderboard with a perfect 10-0 record and two closest score predictions.
