Betting on TCU’s Odds to Make CFP Before Baylor Matchup

• Baylor is hosting TCU as three-point underdogs on Saturday week 12, as the TCU Horned Frogs are trying to reach 11-0.
• TCU has only failed to cover the spread in one of their two games in 2022 and have covered in four and pushed in one of their away games.
• TCU has -150 odds to win the Big 12, +200 odds to make the College Football Playoff, and +2000 odds to win it all.

FORTH WORTH, Texas – TCU currently has the fifth shortest odds at +2000 to win the 2022-23 National Championship and will be trying to keep their regular season undefeated hopes alive against Baylor during week 12.

Despite being the fourth-ranked team in the CFP, the Horned Frogs college football odds only make them slight favorites over the unranked Balor Bears in McLane Stadium Saturday afternoon.

TCU Vs. Baylor Game Lines

• Moneyline - TCU -145/Baylor +125
• Spread - TCU -3.0 (-105)/Baylor +3.0 (-105)
• Total - Over 57.7 (-110)/Under 57.7 (-110)

Since the 2015 season, Baylor has gone 6-1 SU against the Bears, with their only loss coming from home as two-point favorites. During those seven games, however, TCU has covered the spread five times. Through their 10-game undefeated season, the Horned Frogs have recorded a 2022 spread record of 8-1-1.

TCU has gone undefeated ATS when playing on the road in 2022 and could extend their streak at Baylor. The Bears are coming off of a 28-point loss to the Kansas State Wildcats at home, who TCU beat in week eight by ten points.

While Max Duggan did not have his most productive game against Texas in week 11, going 19 of 29 for 124 yards and a TD, TCU has become a massive threat on the ground. Kendre Miller led TCU rushing last week with 21 carries, 138 yards, and a TD of his own, and is expected to keep it up in week 12.

Future Betting on TCU

Already ranked number four by the College Football Playoff Committee, the Horned Frogs have one of the smoothest roads to the playoffs in 2022. TCU has already clinched their spot in the Big 12 Championship and only have Baylor and Iowa State in the way of an undefeated season.

Prior to week 12, the Horned Frogs have -240 odds to win the Big 12 and +200 odds to make the CFP. While they have a clear path to make it, online sportsbooks do not favor the Horned Frogs to win the CFP, with long odds compared to the other top three favorites.

Their +2000 odds to win it all are almost three times longer than Ohio State’s +700 odds, who the CFP ranked number three. The future odds for TCU point to the Horned Frogs making the playoff but not escaping the semifinals alive.
