In this article we will formulate a St. Francis vs TCU prediction for this College Basketball game on Thursday, November 6th at Schollmaier Arena in Fort Worth, Texas. Let’s take a look at the prediction for this College Basketball matchup.

St. Francis Red Flash Betting Preview

The St. Francis Red Flash are 0-1 this year after they lost to Oklahoma by a score of 102-66 in their first game. St. Francis only trailed 45-44 at halftime, but they were out scored 57-22 in the second half to make the game look uglier than it was. St. Francis shot 40.9% from the field, 29.4% on three pointers, and 70% on free throws in the game. The Red Flash were out rebounded by a total of 42-33, recorded 10 assists, and committed 14 turnovers in the loss. Skylar Wicks led St. Francis with 20 points and five rebounds, while Zion Russell added 15 points and five rebounds in the game. 

St. Francis did a great job of battling in the first half against Oklahoma, but it just got away from them after halftime. The Red Flash allowed Oklahoma to shoot 55.7% from the field, they allowed 11 made three pointers, and committed 19 turnovers in the game. St. Francis did have a lead of four points, but only managed four fast break points in the loss. 

TCU Horned Frogs Betting Preview

The TCU Horned Frogs are 0-1 this season after they lost to New Orleans by a score of 78-74 on Monday night. TCU trailed 44-28 at halftime and even though they scored 46 points in the second half, they couldn’t complete the comeback for the bad loss. The Horned Frogs shot 38.8% from the field, 11.1% on three pointers, and 73.1% on free throws in the game. TCU was out rebounded by a total of 39-28, recorded 13 assists, and committed 10 turnovers in the loss. David Punch led the Horned Frogs with 19 points and eight rebounds, while Micah Robinson added 14 points and six rebounds off of the bench. 

TCU did a solid job of battling in the second half to make the game close, but there is no excuse for them to be down 16 points to a team like New Orleans at halftime. The Horned Frogs allowed NO to shoot 49.1% from the field, they were badly out rebounded, and they only made 3-27 three pointers, which is just an awful shooting night. 

Why the TCU Horned Frogs will win

  • TCU has won 19 of its last 20 games against non-Conference opponents at Ed and Rae Schollmaier Arena.
  • Saint Francis has lost 10 of its last 11 night games against non-Conference opponents.
  • Saint Francis has lost the first half in 13 of its last 17 night games against non-Conference opponents.

Why the Saint Francis Red Flash will win

  • TCU has lost each of its last four games against non-AP-ranked opponents.
  • Saint Francis has won six of its last eight games against non-AP-ranked opponents.

St. Francis vs TCU Prediction 

Both of these teams come into this contest after losing earlier this week, but St. Francis has to feel good about their start against Oklahoma, while TCU has to be embarrassed. The Red Flash fought hard for 20 minutes against the Sooners, but they need to play better defense here. TCU played a decent second half, but they were terrible in the first half. I do expect a bounce back from TCU and there is no way they shoot that poorly again from three, so give me the Horned Frogs to cover this big number.

David Racey's Pick: TCU -25.5
