Preview
Murray was spectacular last week, completing 19 of 26 passes for 307 yards, four touchdowns and one interception. He has been sensational all season, competing 71.1% of his passes for 1,764 total yards, 21 touchdowns and three interceptions, however, it will be tough to erase the sting of the Texas loss.
Shawn Robinson and the Horned Frogs have undoubtedly disappointed this season. Since a 40-28 loss to Ohio State in Arlington during the middle of September, their season has gone off the rails a bit with losses in two of the past three games – one to Todd Herman and Texas, which Oklahoma now has in common; they also traded a 17-14 home win and loss against Iowa State (W) and Texas Tech (L).
Key Matchup: TCU only allows on average of 182 passing yards per game, which ranked 20th in the nation. The Horned Frogs have the pass defense needed to slow down Murray and the Sooners offense.
Head coach Lincoln Riley Oklahoma will have to take advantage and win the turnover the margin. Head coach Gary Patterson’s Horned Frogs are a minus-9 this season, which ranks last in the conference.
