TCU enters at 0-1 after opening its season in Ireland and will look to get into the win column behind new starting quarterback Jaden Craig. The Harvard transfer finished his career there as the program’s all-time leader with 6,074 passing yards and 52 touchdown passes before taking over the Horned Frogs’ offense this season. Head coach Sonny Dykes is in his fifth year at TCU, while new offensive play caller Gordon Sammis arrived after spending the previous two seasons running UConn’s offense.
Grambling State brings a 2-0 record to Fort Worth after piling up 644 yards in a 48-26 victory over Central State last weekend. Quarterback Reginald Johnson completed 18 of 23 passes for 258 yards, while Jamarion Parker helped set the tone with a 40-yard touchdown run on the opening possession. TCU won the programs’ only previous meeting 56-0 in 2012, but the Horned Frogs will face a Grambling team carrying plenty of early-season momentum into Saturday.
