Texas Tech vs. Texas Betting Prediction
Take the over, which hit in the previous five meetings between these two teams and in seven out of the Red Raiders’ last 10 road games versus the Longhorns. The over is also 6-1 in Texas Tech’s last seven games played on a Friday. The under has been profitable for both of these Big 12 teams this season, but when the Red Raiders and Longhorns get to together, the over has been the best bet.
