The Horned Frogs, who have won 20 straight regular-season games dating back to the 2008 season, have for the most part had their way with the competition so far in 2010 with a scoring margin in the neighborhood of 31 ppg. Last Saturday the team hosted BYU and nearly posted a third straight shutout, all against foes from the MWC, as the squad posted a 31-3 victory in Fort Worth. One of the top overall defenses in college football the last several years, TCU is first in the nation this week with just 9.3 ppg allowed to the opposition.
As for the Falcons, this time last week they were enjoying their place among the nationally ranked, but their three-game win streak and their stay in the polls ended rather quickly as they suffered a 27-25 setback at San Diego State. The defeat also dropped the academy to 3-1 in conference and that means it is trailing both TCU and Utah in the league standings as those two programs show off their perfect 3-0 marks.
