Pick 2: Texas Moneyline -166 (Fanduel)
With a 20-5 overall record and a 9-3 record in the Big 12, the Texas Longhorns have the clear advantage over Texas Tech in the upcoming Big 12 Conference contest on Monday night.
No. 5 Texas is headed to Lubbock to face off against dangerous Texas Tech, and while the Red Raiders are hoping to seek revenge after the Longhorns lured their former coach Chris Beard away in 2021, the odds are firmly in the Longhorns' favor.
The Longhorns have a significantly better record than the Red Raiders, with 20-5 overall and 9-3 in the Big 12 compared to Texas Tech's 13-12 overall and 2-10 in the Big 12. On top of that, Texas outscores Texas Tech by an average of 6 points per game.
Looking at records as the favorite, the Longhorns have an impressive 19-2 record, while the Red Raiders have a dismal 0-8 record as an underdog. Texas also has the advantage of having beaten the Red Raiders in their first matchup of the season in Austin, with a score of 72-70.
The Longhorns' defense has been particularly noteworthy, forcing 20 turnovers from West Virginia in their last game, which they converted into 32 points. They have been showing improvement in recent weeks, and their record after 25 games is their best since the 2010-11 season when they started 22-3.
Texas has been led by Sir'Jabari Rice, who scored a season-high 24 points off the bench in their last game, as well as Marcus Carr and Timmy Allen, who both scored 16 and 14 points, respectively.
Texas Tech has been led by De'Vion Harmon, who scored 20 points against the Wildcats, as well as Lamar Washington, Jaylon Tyson and Kevin Obanor, who scored 13, 11, and 10 points, respectively. The Red Raiders have been able to secure victories with their aggressive defense, as seen in their win against then-No. 13 Iowa State in overtime on Jan. 30.
Given the Longhorns' clear advantages in scoring, record, and their impressive record as the favorite, it is likely that Texas will come away with the win in this Big 12 contest.
