Most people expect a shootout when the Cowboys and Horned Frogs meet at Boone Pickens Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

And the biggest concern for the Cowboys, as we've talked about all week, is how to slow down or contain TCU quarterback Trevone Boykin, one of the top players in college football. It turns out that no one thinks there's one best way to do that.

"With a guy like Boykin it can be effective, but then again it can't be because he has good feet,” said Emmanuel Ogbah. “He can run, so he can really get outside of you, and get outside of contain. If you're all the way close to him, he can outrun you so that can be a good thing and a bad thing too."

"Based on what he can do with his feet, again it takes things away that maybe you can do. It's the worst nightmare scenario is who he is,” added defensive coordinator Glenn Spencer.

There is a concern the Cowboys may not have starting defensive end Jimmy Bean, who hurt a knee at Texas Tech. But then again, TCU may not have its starting left tackle.

Kickoff is set for 2:30 p.m.
