TCU and SMU will clash in an interconference battle in Fort Worth in Week 4 of the college football season. Both programs have top-30 odds to win the National Championship, and both will be raring to go in this Sep. 20 tilt.
TCU received plenty of votes in the AP and coaches polls after decimating Bill Belichick's North Carolina team 48-14 on Labor Day. The Horned Frogs then enjoyed 12 days without a game before facing Abilene Christian last week.
SMU opened the season with a smash win of its own, defeating East Texas A&M 42-13. The Mustangs then lost a 48-45 firefight with Baylor before heading to Missouri State last week.
