This is a 10* BLOWOUT on Texas Tech.
While I won't be so bold as to predict an outright victory in this one, I do feel that for a number of different reasons the visitors will keep this one a lot closer than what the oddsmakers are leading us to believe and will recommend that you grab as many points as you can. This is the 135th meeting between the two schools. To say this is a "revenge game" would be a bit of an understatement I think as the Longhorns have won four of the last five, most recently a 70-61 victory on January 3rd in Lubbock. Texas Tech coach Smith sees a different team now than the one that took the court at the beginning of the year: "We are not the same team we were at the beginning of the season," Smith explained last night. "We have tried some different things to be successful and used some different lineup, but what we have to do to be successful is play under control." Note, that despite struggling with SU victories vs. Texas, the Red Raiders have in fact faired extremely well ATS for bettors, going 6-2 ATS the last eight in the series overall and 5-1 ATS their last six vs. the Longhorns on their own floor. In my opinion, the situation, the numbers and the trends all do indeed point to TEXAS TECH as the savvy move in this one.
