Watch UNLV Rebels vs. TCU Horned Frogs live online streaming - NCAA Football on October 31, 2009. This game starts 4:00 PM ET at Amon Carter Stadium , FORT WORTH, TX.
TCU's top competition this season will not be met on the field.
Having moved into position to be a BCS buster, the eighth-ranked Horned Frogs attempt to hold off their challenger for that spot with a big game against Mountain West Conference rival UNLV on Saturday.
TCU (7-0, 3-0), off to its best start since opening 10-0 in 2003, passed Boise State this week in the BCS standings, jumping two places to sixth and one spot ahead of the undefeated Broncos. One team from a non-automatic qualifying league is eligible to earn an automatic BCS bid.
Neither the MWC or Boise State's Western Athletic Conference has an automatic bid, but a team from one of those leagues has earned an automatic entry by finishing in the top 12 in the BCS standings each of the past three seasons.
TCU finished 11th in 2008, when Utah of the MWC earned a bid to the Sugar Bowl with a sixth-place finish.
