Last week Texas bounced back from a loss to Arkansas by rolling past Rice, 58-0. Quarterback Casey Thompson made his first start with zero resistance and now will face undefeated Big 12 rival Texas Tech. I expect Steve Sarkisian’s quick pivot at quarterback to continue to pay dividends. Texas goes to 3-0 ATS at home.

The last time these teams played they combined for 119 points, so it is no surprise that our sims like the over here. The total has gone over 70 points in five of the last six meetings between these two teams. Texas made the switch from quarterback Hudson Card to Casey Thompson, and the Longhorns rolled with a 58-0 win last week. Look for this game to be a classic Big 12 high-scoring affair.

Both teams have elite offenses and below-average defenses. Their matchups over the last three seasons have produced 75, 73, and 119 points! Look for a lot of passing, a lot of explosive plays, and little to no defense. This number is way too low for these two teams. Go Over.

We have two very offensive-minded head coaches in Matt Wells of Texas Tech and Steve Sarkisian of Texas. The Red Raiders' offense is led by Oregon transfer Tyler Shough, who has completed 68 percent of his passes for an average of 9.9 yards and six touchdowns. Longhorns QB Casey Thompson has been named the starter after completing 15-of-18 attempts for 164 yards and two touchdowns last week.
