Coach:
Gary Patterson, who has led TCU to 11 wins in three of the past four seasons.

Last year:
11-2, including a 37-7 win over Northern Illinois in the Poinsettia Bowl.

Offense: TCU rushed for nearly 200 yards a game last season. With quarterback Jeff Ballard having graduated, expect the Horned Frogs to rely even more heavily on their ground game. While sophomore Marcus Jackson and redshirt freshman Andy Dalton compete for the quarterback spot, running back Aaron Brown, who gained 801 yards and caught 34 passes last season, will be the main man on offense.

Defense: End Tommy Blake, a Playboy All America, is the heart and soul of this unit. Double-teams on Blake will allow the rest of the defensive front to seal off opponents' rushing attack. TCU was second nationally in run defense last season, allowing only 60.8 yards a game.

Schedule: TCU will have more than it can handle when it visits Austin on September 8.

Prediction: 8-4
