Texas Tech vs West Virginia Prediction
Texas Tech comes into this matchup highly ranked in the top 25 and they are tied for first in the Big 12 standings. The Red Raiders have won four games in a row and they have scored at least 42 points in three of their last four games. West Virginia has won two of their last three games and even in their last two losses, they have been very competitive. The Mountaineers are playing very strong defense right now, but I don’t trust their offense against this Texas Tech defense.
