TCU - Kansas is... pivotal?
Yes, yes it is.
On one side, you have a Horned Frogs squad dealing with rumored in-fighting among the coaching staff as they lick their wounds from a rare home loss to SMU a week ago.
On the other, you have a renewed and revived Jayhawks team that got humbled by West Virginia a week after doubling up Boston College.
One team is looking to get bowl eligible for the first time since 2008, the other expects to be fighting for a shot at playing in the Big 12 Championship team as November turns to December.
