Horned Frogs

Texas Tech's offensive firepower and TCU's recent struggles suggest a decisive outcome.

Grade A-: Texas Tech Moneyline (-320)

The Red Raiders' standout forward, JT Toppin, has been a consistent force this season, averaging 16.3 points and 8.5 rebounds per game. His performance has been pivotal in Texas Tech's impressive 81.9 points per game average, positioning them as a formidable offensive unit. In contrast, the Horned Frogs have faced challenges, particularly on the road, and are currently on a two-game losing streak. Their defense, allowing 67.8 points per game, will be tested against Texas Tech's high-octane offense. Notably, TCU's forward, I. Manning, is questionable due to a hip injury, which could further impact their defensive capabilities. Given these factors, the moneyline bet favoring Texas Tech at -320 appears favorable. Grade: A-

Texas Tech's recent form and TCU's defensive woes favor a decisive margin.

Grade A-: Texas Tech -6.5 (-110)

The Red Raiders' guard, Marcus Williams, has been instrumental in orchestrating Texas Tech's offense, contributing to their 81.9 points per game. Their defense, allowing just 62.3 points per game, complements their scoring prowess. Conversely, the Horned Frogs have struggled defensively, conceding 70.5 points per game, and their offense has been inconsistent, averaging 68.2 points. Additionally, TCU's forward, Isaiah Manning, is questionable due to a hip injury, potentially weakening their frontcourt. Considering these factors, betting on Texas Tech to cover the -6.5 spread at -110 odds is advisable. Grade: A-

Anticipate a low-scoring affair as both teams emphasize defense.
