Kansas vs Texas Tech Prediction
Kansas is a much improved team from what we’re used to seeing, and I have a hard time leaving this many points on the table with a team that has a good quarterback and can score the ball. However, Texas Tech is better across the board and looking more and more like a playoff contender. Texas Tech has also covered 9 of its last 11 games as a double-digit favorite. Kansas can be leaky defensively, and that’s not ideal against this explosive Texas Tech offense. This has more to do with Texas Tech than anything, a team I’m not excited to bet against right now.
