TCU Fights for Return to Top-10

TCU is closing in on the Big-12 regular season title, as well as a return to the top-10. Currently projected to receive a 3-seed in the NCAA Tournament, the Horned Frogs are aiming to build some momentum before the tourney starts. 3rd-year head coach Mark Campbell will look to lead his group past the Elite 8, a record they set last season. Bringing in future top-5 WNBA Draft pick Olivia Miles was a key start for Campbell and TCU.

#18 Baylor vs #11 TCU NCAAW Pick

In this Baylor vs TCU clash, the Horned Frogs enter with a notable advantage. They defeated Baylor without much issue on the road just two weeks ago, proving they will likely win the rematch at home. While a strong start by the red-hot Bears could make this one interesting, TCU will ultimately earn another conference win.
