TCU’s showdown with Oklahoma State on Saturday could mean the season for both clubs. No matter who wins, they’ll have another massive showdown with No. 3 Oklahoma looming but whoever emerges victorious at Boone Pickens Stadium in Stillwater, Okla., will set themselves up to challenge the Sooners for the Big 12 championship.
There is another level at work here, however, and that is the slew of Tarrant County area players on both rosters. No. 16 TCU, of course, always does its best to mine the local high schools for top talent. The Horned Frogs have 20 players from Tarrant area.
