LARAMIE, Wyo. -- TCU lucked out today with the fact that while there is snow on the ground, there is none falling. The field is clear and several TCU players are out warming up in shorts and long-sleeved shirts.

It’s about 26 degrees, but clear. It’s actually a nice day if you don’t think about how cold it is. TCU shouldn’t be fazed by the chilly weather. It’s played in different types of weather all season and this game isn’t nearly as cold as the game against Air Force, which had a 9 degree windchill with icy rain falling.

Both teams have something on the line in this game. The Horned Frogs are trying to preserve their undefeated season and their BCS bowl standing. Wyoming is working toward its sixth win and bowl eligibility. Both teams have one more game after this one.

Wyoming has not fared well this season against the top teams in the Mountain West Conference. It’s been outscored 84-10 by Air Force, BYU and Utah and two of those games were shutouts.

TCU’s 55-28 win over Utah last week marked the most points any team has scored on the Horned Frogs this season. In the four games prior to that -- wins over Colorado State, BYU, UNLV and San Diego State -- TCU had allowed 25 points combined.
