FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) TCU stayed undefeated when playing three of its first four Big 12 games on the road, a portion of the season that was repeatedly emphasized by coach Gary Patterson.
But that was just a warmup for the fifth-ranked Horned Frogs (7-0, 4-0 Big 12), who head into their tell-tale stretch after an open date.
''The games we're getting ready to play are going to speak volumes for us, for our resume,'' Patterson said. ''Not sure that the ones that we've beaten already make a difference.''
While the Frogs had to win all those games to be in a playoff-contending position, the toughest part of their schedule is still ahead of them.
