FWST: TCU remains in mix, but out of wiggle room, in race for Big 12 title

In a football season that began with lofty goals, TCU finds itself unranked in the polls and back in pursuit mode as it seeks to make up ground on the front-runners in the Big 12 championship race.

But the Horned Frogs (3-2, 1-1 Big 12) refuse to believe their 52-46 loss to Oklahoma is the death knell for their league title hopes even though the Sooners (2-2, 1-0) would have to lose two of their remaining conference games to allow TCU to pass them in the final standings.

That’s a big ask after No. 20 Oklahoma, winner of nine Big 12 titles in the past 16 seasons, resurfaced in Sunday’s Associated Press poll with control of its destiny in the conference race.
