For Tech to cover, it must bury a 22-game straight-up losing streak in Austin. The Red Raiders wield the defense to do so. None in the nation is more efficient at stops, according to kenpom.com. Tech is a one-defeat team that is receiving two points from a five-defeat side only because of the series history. Not to be overlooked is the Longhorns’ 5-11 ATS slump at home.
The erratic Longhorns have some big wins, but are coming off a down spot in road loss to Oklahoma State. Under coach Shaka Smart, they have been great in these bounce-back scenarios and should continue their dominance Saturday over Texas Tech. The Red Raiders are 14-1, but most of the wins were built against meager non-conference foes. They could be due for a letdown spot after grinding out single-figure wins in their first three Big 12 contests.
