Colorado Buffaloes vs. TCU Horned Frogs

Saturday, 11:00 a.m. CT, FOX

TCU lost its last game 65-7 in the national championship and lost Max Duggan and Quentin Johnston to the NFL. Despite all of the roster turnover, though, there is nothing that could match what Coach ‘Prime’ Deion Sanders has done in Boulder. It will be his first contest coaching the Buffaloes, and while some are buying into the CU hype, a team coming off a 1-11 season shouldn’t phase TCU too much. This will probably be the most anticipated Big 12 football game of the week, and I’m giving TCU the edge by a slight margin in Deion’s debut.

Final Score Prediction: 41-27, TCU
