- Chris Blake, play-by-play
- TCU will secure the best start to a season in school history with a win over the Golden Hurricane.

- The Horned Frogs are enjoying their first-five game home winning streak since 2019-20.
- TCU is undefeated entering December for the third time in program history and first since 2018-19 when playing three-or-more games in November.
- TCU and Tulsa are colliding on the hardwood for the first time since 2011.
- TCU is the only team in the country with two players averaging 20 points per game in Madison Conner and Sedona Prince. They rank eighth and ninth, respectively, in points scored.
- Conner continues to lead the Big 12 in points per game (21.9 ppg) while Prince is third entering Friday's tilt. Both players rank in the top-20 nationally in the category.
- Prince collected her NCAA-leading fifth double-double via a 23-point, 11-rebound, three-block effort in the St. Pete Showcase championship vs. Nebraska. She was crowned tournament MVP following the final whistle. Prince averaged 21 points, nine rebounds and four blocks per game along the Florida gulf coast.
- Prince was named Big 12 Player of the Week on Monday for her efforts in St. Petersburg.
- TCU has received two of three Big 12 Player of the Week accolades thus far in 2023-24. Conner claimed the crown on Nov. 13. Prince's honor marks the first time in program history TCU has had two players receive Big 12 Player of the Week recognition in the same season.
- Prince is the only player in the nation who ranks in the top-20 in points and rebounds per game and is one of just two players alongside Oregon State's Raegan Beers averaging 20 points and 10 rebounds per night.
- The Horned Frogs are second out of 348 D1 basketball teams in total blocks (72). Prince has rejected an NCAA-leading 20 shots. She tallied eight blocks over two games at the St. Pete Showcase, including a career-high five - all of which came in the second half vs. UTEP.
- TCU has largely put each of its seven wins on ice in the second quarter. The Horned Frogs battered Nebraska 22-9 in the frame on their way to a 45-25 halftime lead on Saturday. TCU holds a 152-74 cumulative second quarter scoring edge.
- The Horned Frogs are making good on Mark Campbell's introductory press conference promise to try and lead the NCAA in 3-pointers. TCU leads the Big 12 and ranks fifth nationally in triples (70). The Horned Frogs have drained at least 10 deep balls in five of their seven games.
- TCU has hit or eclipsed 85 points four times this season. TCU last scored 85-plus points in four games in the same season in 2018-19.

- Conner continues to lead the country in 3-point field goals per game (4.6) and is second in 3-pointers (32).
- Campbell is the first head coach in program history to win his first seven games donning the purple and white. Campbell and TCU's active seven-game winning streak is also the longest ever by a first-year head coach.
- Campbell is on pace to become the winningest first-year coach TCU women's basketball has produced. Raegan Peebly's 18 wins in 2014-15 are the most by a head coach in his/her first season in Fort Worth.
- Campbell was recognized as Coach of the Week in ESPN's weekly Women's College Basketball Power Rankings after leading TCU to the St. Pete Showcase championship over Thanksgiving holiday.
