As I have said time and time again, teams rally around adversity. With the Trevone Boykin disgrace, Texas Christian certainly has that. TX Christian will travel 238 miles to San Antonio, compared to 1685 for Oregon. So TCU has the famed neutral field advantage.

The markets have overreacted and TCU certainly has the element of surprise in their favor, while it is tough for Oregon to not get a false sense of security.
