Five TCU Horned Frogs to Watch on Saturday

The TCU Horned Frogs host Texas in another crucial Big 12 contest.

When Texas takes on the TCU Horned Frogs on Saturday this won’t be the same Texas team that rolled over last year in regular season finale.

TCU will have a different look, too.

Linebacker Paul Dawson is in the NFL. Defensive backs Kevin White, Chris Hackett and Sam Carter have moved on. The Horned Frogs have lost several players to injury as well – wide receiver Ty Slanina, linebacker Sammy Douglas, safety Kenny Iloka, defensive end James McFarland and corner Ranthony Texada are all out for the season.

TCU does get defensive end Mike Tuaua back after he sat out three games for his late hit on a TCU student carrying a case of Keystone Light. A student judicial committee cleared Tuaua.

Texas will have its hands full on defense with a high-octane offense led by Trevone Boykin and Josh Doctson. Remember when Gary Patterson thought Boykin would make a better wide receiver than quarterback? Hard to believe.

Anyways, here are five TCU Horned Frogs to keep an eye on this weekend.
