Horned Frogs have the Big 12's second-best overall and conference records over the last five seasons
IRVING, Texas -- The TCU football team is picked fourth in the 2019 Big 12 Media Preseason Poll.
The last two times the Horned Frogs were picked fourth or lower, they won a Big 12 Championship (2014) and played in the Big 12 Championship Game (2017).
TCU, which holds the Big 12's longest active winning streak at three games, returns 12 starters (five defensive, seven offensive) in 2019.
Over the last five seasons, TCU's 47-19 overall record and 30-15 conference mark rank second in the Big 12.
TCU is one of just six programs nationally to finish with an Associated Press top-10 final ranking in at least three of the last five years (2014, 2015, 2017).
The Horned Frogs open camp Aug. 1 with their first practice set for Aug. 2. The season opener is Aug. 31 at home versus Arkansas-Pine Bluff. Following an open date, TCU will travel to Purdue for a Sept. 14 game.
