MORGANTOWN, W. L.C. Greenwood Jersey .Va. -- TCU and West Virginia share somewhat of a kinship as the two youngest members of the Big 12. Their head-to-head series has been close, too.Three of their four meetings since joining the league in 2012 have been decided on the final snap. Two went to overtime.We really have a lot of respect for each other, said TCU defensive end Josh Carraway. Theyre going to battle their butts off, just like they know were going to go out there and battle our butts off.No. 12 West Virginia (5-0, 2-0) is off to a surprising start but still has to face the conferences traditional heavyweights, starting Saturday with the Horned Frogs (4-2, 2-1). There are showdowns later against No. 9 Baylor and No. 16 Oklahoma, which are tied for first place at 3-0.TCU edged the Mountaineers 31-30 in 2014 and 39-38 in double overtime in 2012 after making the 1,200-mile trip to Morgantown, so coach Gary Patterson has a formula for beating West Virginia on the road.Score one more point, he said.TCU is the underdog this time and will face a West Virginia team coming off its best game of the season, a 48-17 win last Saturday at Texas Tech .West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen said he told his team the next day that if you like the feeling that youre having right now, then youve got to prepare. If you dont prepare, then were not going to be in position to be able to win. Then everybodys going to tell you that you suck again. Then youre going to be in a bad mood. Its reality.TCU is 31-9 on the road since 2009. Lately, though, the Horned Frogs have struggled anywhere they play, losing to Arkansas and Oklahoma at home and barely winning at Kansas .On the road, its just about finding your comfort zone, bringing your own energy, said TCU wide receiver John Diarse. Thats tough, depending on the place. West Virginia does have a reputation of having a hostile crowd. Weve just got to go in and be confident in what we do, be comfortable in what we do and minimize the mistakes.---Other things to know about the sixth-ever meeting between TCU and West Virginia:CLOSE CALLS: Both teams have had to squeeze out some wins. TCU came from nine points down in the fourth quarter to beat Kansas on the road two weeks ago. West Virginia beat Kansas State by a point after the Wildcats missed a late field goal, and BYU nearly came from 16 points down in the fourth quarter but was intercepted on its final drive near West Virginias end zone.RB PASS CATCHER: One of the focuses for West Virginia will be stopping TCU leading rusher Kyle Hicks, who also has a team-best 27 receptions for 308 yards. Hes big. A thick kid, hard to bring down, but can still run a little bit, said West Virginia defensive coordinator Tony Gibson. Hes busted a couple big runs and he catches the ball well, so they arent afraid to use him.FACING HOMETOWN TEAM: West Virginia quarterback Skyler Howard is a native of Fort Worth, Texas. Howard has improved his passing accuracy significantly to 66 percent and is fourth in the Big 12 with 318 yards per game.SUSCEPTIBLE DEFENSE: TCU has allowed 40 or more points three times this season. Two years ago when they came here, they led pretty much every defensive category that existed, Holgorsen said. So just because theyre not, that doesnt mean that theyre not good. Theyre really good.COMEBACK FROGS: TCU overcame double-digit deficits against West Virginia in the second half in 2012, 2013 and 2014, losing only the 2013 game in overtime.---AP Sports Writer Stephen Hawkins in Fort Worth, Texas, contributed to this report.---AP college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org James Harrison Steelers Jersey . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season. Ben Roethlisberger Jersey .H. -- Matt Kenseth made it 2 for 2 in the Chase, holding off teammate Kyle Busch to win Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. http://www.steelerspronfl.com/Youth-Greg-Lloyd-Elite-Jersey/ . -- The Portland Timbers and Real Salt Lake played to a 0-0 tie Saturday night that left the top of the Western Conference standings unchanged. PHOENIX -- The Pac-12 season kicked off last week with No. 7 Stanfords dominating win over Southern California in a rematch of last seasons conference title game.This week, the conference season kicks into full gear, with every team but Oregon State playing another Pac-12 team.With that in mind, we thought it would be a good time to make a few predictions in the two Pac-12 divisions, based upon what the teams have done through the seasons first three weeks.Take a look:---NORTH DIVISIONFavorites: Stanford, No. 9 Washington. The seventh-ranked Cardinal (2-0, 1-0 Pac-12) have already established themselves as a team to beat by manhandling USC, a team expected to contend in the South. The Cardinal have a physical defense and one of the nations best players, Christian McCaffrey. The junior running back was the Heisman Trophy runner-up a year ago and teams are still having trouble slowing him down. The Huskies are a little less of a known quantity because of their early schedule. Washington (3-0) won its first three games by a combined score of 148-30, but the games came against less-than-upper-tier opponents Rutgers, Idaho and Portland State. The rest of the schedule will show just how good the Huskies are.Keep an eye on: Oregon, California. Its hard to fault the Ducks (2-1) for losing at back-on-the-rise Nebraska on Saturday. The problem is Oregons defense has worn down in the second half in consecutive weeks and injuries have hit key players. Receiver Devon Allen is out for the year with a torn ACL and the status of star running back Royce Freeman (leg) is unknown heading into this weekends game against Colorado. Cal, behind quarterback Davis Webb, has put up prodigious offensive numbers and it picked up a quality win by beating then-No. 11 Texas last week. The Bears have had some trouble on defense, though, particularly stopping the run.Longshots: Oregon State, Washington State. The Beavers (1-2) ended a 10-game losing streak last weekend, but that came against FCS Idaho State. They could be back on the rise, but it may not be this season. The Cougars momentum from last season appears to be halted after an opening loss to FCS Eastern Washington and another to Boise SState. Dermontti Dawson Jersey. A blowout win over Idaho last week is a good sign, but a stretch against Oregon, Stanford and UCLA follows Washington States bye week.---SOUTH DIVISIONFavorites: No. 24 Utah, UCLA. The Utes (3-0) have been dominant on defense and are second nationally with 15 sacks after piling up 10 against San Jose State last week. Utahs offense has sputtered at times, though it seems to be improving. The Utes face a big test this week against USC, which ended their perfect season a year ago. The Bruins (2-1) opened the season with an overtime loss to Texas A&M and had to eke out a three-point victory at BYU. UCLA still has one of the nations best young quarterbacks in sophomore Josh Rosen and its defense took a big step by shutting down the Cougars last week. A true gauge of where the Bruins stand will come Saturday, when they host Stanford.Keep an eye on: Arizona State, Arizona. The Sun Devils (3-0) are one of four undefeated teams left in the Pac-12, but they have been less than dominant. Arizona State had a slow-starting win over FCS Northern Arizona, needed 68 points to outlast Texas Tech and had to get a late touchdown to beat UTSA last week. Upcoming games against Cal, USC and UCLA will tell a lot about this team. The Wildcats (2-1) are trending upward after a 47-28 victory over Hawaii last Saturday. There are still issues with the defense and the offense started slow in games against BYU and Grambling State. Up next comes a gauntlet: Washington, UCLA, Utah, USC and Stanford.Longshots: Colorado, USC. The Trojans (1-2, 0-1) were ranked No. 20 in the preseason and were expected to compete with rival UCLA for the South title. Lopsided losses to top-ranked Alabama and Stanford seem to make those expectations a bit over-reaching. The Buffaloes looked like a team to keep an eye on after blowing out Colorado State and Idaho State. Then came a 45-28 loss to No. 4 Michigan that saw quarterback Sefo Liufau go down with a right ankle injury. If Liufau is out an extended period of time, the Buffaloes could have a hard time in the Pac-12.
