The Horned Frogs are still near the top of the college football rankings despite a near loss on the road at Texas Tech last week. There is a glaring weakness on this team, as their defense doesn't seem to be capable of stopping anybody. They are asked to cover quite a big spread here at home to Texas, and I like the Longhorns to keep this one close.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Jerrod Heard - The Longhorns quarterback hasn't really put up impressive numbers this season, but he did have a big game against California. The freshman threw for 364 yards and an INT on 20-of-31 passing, while rushing for 163 yards and three TDs. He should find plenty of holes in this TCU defense.

2. Previous History - Texas won it's last visit to Fort Worth, and the Horns have won three of their last four at Amon G. Carter Stadium. The one loss came by a score of 23-14.

3. X-Factor - The Longhorns suffered an embarrassing home loss to TCU last November, and that sets up a classic revenge spot here this week.

Selection: This is a play on the Texas Longhorns (10*)
