Through 3 Quarters
A great path to victory is to simply outgain your opponent on the field, and that's working so far for the Oklahoma State Cowboys (with 515 yards vs. 174 yards). Three quarters in and their offense has really been able to impose its will, dominating the TCU Horned Frogs 42-3 three quarters in.
Oklahoma State has been led by RB Jaylen Warren, who so far has rushed for three TDs and 113 yards on 17 carries.
RB Emari Demercado has led the way so far for TCU, as he has picked up 71 yards on the ground on 12 carries.
This is the least points the Horned Frogs have had yet this season going into the fourth quarter.

What to Know
The Oklahoma State Cowboys and the TCU Horned Frogs are even-steven against one another since November of 2015 (3-3), but not for long. Oklahoma State and the Horned Frogs will face off in a Big 12 battle at 8 p.m. ET on Saturday at Boone Pickens Stadium. Oklahoma State is out to keep their five-game home win streak alive.
The Cowboys made easy work of the West Virginia Mountaineers last week and carried off a 24-3 win. Oklahoma State relied on the efforts of WR Tay Martin, who snatched two receiving TDs, and RB Jaylen Warren, who punched in one rushing touchdown.
Oklahoma State's defense was a presence as well, as it embarrassed West Virginia's offensive line to sack the quarterback eight times for a total loss of 75 yards. The heavy lifting was done by DE Brock Martin and LB Devin Harper, who each racked up two sacks.
The Horned Frogs decided to play defense against itself last week, but the team still came out ahead despite their 116 penalty yards. They skirted past the Baylor Bears 30-28. QB Chandler Morris went supernova for TCU as he passed for two TDs and 461 yards on 41 attempts in addition to rushing for one TD and 70 yards.
Special teams collected 12 points for TCU. K Griffin Kell booted in three field goals, the longest a 46-yarder in the second quarter, which ultimately accounted for the difference in the matchup.
Oklahoma State is the favorite in this one, with an expected 11.5-point margin of victory. They might be worth taking a chance on against the spread as they are currently on a seven-game streak of ATS wins.
The Cowboys are now 8-1 while TCU sits at 4-5. Oklahoma State is 6-1 after wins this year, the Horned Frogs 1-2.
