Play On: Texas -3.5 (5*)

I cashed in with Texas Tech just 2 days ago as they won by 7 at home versus nationally ranked Kansas State. However, the Red Raiders are still an abysmal 2-10 in Big 12 Conference action. Texas Tech is 0-5 SU&ATS this season as an underdog of 5.0 or less and they lost by an average of 12.8 points per game.

Texas is a legitimate Top 5 nationally ranked team right now. Texas is coming off a 94-60 blowout home win over West Virginia on Saturday. The Longhorns are 4-0 SU&ATS in their last 4 as a favorite of 8.0 or less and won by an average of 14.0 points per game. Texas is 4-3 SU in true road games this season. Nevertheless, those 3 losses came versus nationally ranked teams in Tennessee, Kansas, and Iowa State. As of last Monday 2/6, all 3 of those teams were ranked #12 or higher in the AP Poll. That’s unequivocally not the elite level of competition they’ll be facing tonight.

Give me Texas minus the points.
