TCU football is playing on Turkey Day this season.
The Horned Frogs will take on Texas Tech in Lubbock on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 26, the Big 12 announced Friday.
It’s the first time TCU has played on Thanksgiving since 2012, when the Horned Frogs upset Texas 20-13 in Austin. The Horned Frogs also played on Thanksgiving in 1928.
The Red Raiders are the defending Big 12 champions and are the preseason favorites in the conference. The teams did not meet last season. TCU coach Sonny Dykes is 2-1 against the Red Raiders since he took over before the 2022 season.
Also, TCU’s game at Arizona will be held on Friday, Nov. 6, the Big 12 said.
