Oklahoma vs. TCU preview: Predictions, streaming, odds, and how to watch Friday's game
The Oklahoma Sooners (9-2) host the TCU Horned Frogs (5-6) in the final game in the regular season as members of the Big 12 Conference. The Sooners' hopes to make it to the Big 12 title game are still alive, while TCU are fighting to become bowl-eligible and will give it their all against the Sooners.
Oklahoma is coming off a close 31-24 win against the BYU Cougars. Quarterback Dillon Gabriel had an excellent first half, throwing for 191 yards and two touchdowns against the Cougars. However, Gabriel suffered an upper-body injury and did not play in the second half.
Freshman quarterback Jackson Arnold filled in and completed five out of nine passes for 33 yards and ran for 24 yards. The Sooners’ defense stepped up and helped get across the finish line for the Week 12 win. Gabriel is expected to play against TCU, but his status is still to be determined. If Gabriel is out, Arnold will lead the Sooners in the final game.
TCU is coming off a much-needed 42-17 win against Baylor that ended their three-game losing streak. Quarterback Josh Hoover had an outstanding performance, completing 24 out of 29 passes for 412 yards with two touchdowns. For the Horned Frogs, this is a must-win game as they fight to become bowl-eligible in the final game of the regular season.
