After picking up wins over Oklahoma State and Kansas State, TCU has the inside track on a berth in this year's Big 12 championship game.
This Saturday, the Cowboys and Wildcats will meet in Manhattan, with the winner moving into position to potentially face the Horned Frogs in Arlington on December 3.
After seeing their College Football Playoff aspirations likely go up in smoke by blowing a 17-point lead at TCU, Oklahoma State found themselves in a perilous position against Texas last Saturday.
But they overcame a two-to uchdown deficit to topple the Longhorns late, remaining in a strong position to return to the Big 12 title tilt.
