FORT WORTH -- TCU basketball (15-5, 3-4) already had its way with Baylor (14-6, 5-2) in its Big 12 opener back on Jan. 5 -- an 85-81 victory over the Bears -- but head coach Jamie Dixon isn't putting much stock in the lessons learned from that matchup as the Horned Frogs prepare for round two with their in-state rival in Waco on Saturday.
Simply put, things can change in the blink of an eye within the Big 12 landscape.
Momentum may appear to be on TCU's side, at least in the series, from a glance, as the Horned Frogs have won three-straight meetings with the Bears dating back to last season. But with Baylor riding a five-game win streak entering Saturday, one that has included a 73-62 upset of Texas Tech and a 77-47 rout of Oklahoma in Norman, Okla., it's not exactly rocket science that TCU could be in for a dogfight at Ferrell Center.
