TCU HORNED FROGS VS. OKLAHOMA SOONERS PREDICTIONS

TCU picked up a signature victory against LSU in the Big 12/SEC Challenge on Saturday as a 3.5-point underdog in Fort Worth. It was a nice rebound after falling 73-50 against Texas last time out in a conference tilt.

The Horned Frogs connected on 49% (27-of-55) from the floor, although they managed to hit just 28% (5-of-18) from behind the 3-point line. They were also a very average 67% (18-of-27) from the free-throw line in the win over LSU. It was slightly surprising that they outrebounded the Tigers by a 35-to-34 margin, too.

For Oklahoma, they were on the short end of an 86-68 loss at Auburn in a Big 12/SEC Challenge matchup against the top-ranked team in the nation. The offense has really struggled lately, and the Sooners have managed just one win in the past six games overall while going 2-4 ATS.

TCU HORNED FROGS VS. OKLAHOMA SOONERS BETTING CONCLUSION

The Sooners will be back on their home floor, but it might not necessarily matter. Oklahoma fell to Baylor on Jan. 22 by a 65-51 score, and 67-64 to Kansas on Jan. 18 at home. Those two home losses came on the the heels of its OT loss at TCU on Jan. 15 as a 1.5-point favorite. The UNDER cashed in each of those games, too. Oklahoma has scored 68 or fewer points in five of the past five games, and it's no surprise the UNDER is 4-2 during the span.

TCU is flying high after dumping a good LSU team, and they'll use that as a springboard for this road trip to Norman. The Horned Frogs have won and covered its past two games against ranked opponents, including a 59-44 win at Iowa State as a six-point underdog on Jan. 22 as the UNDER cashed. Look for the Horned Frogs to get it done, and they're worth a look on the money line for the chance to double up. If not, taking the points is a slam-dunk play.
