Colorado Continues to be Loss

Two games ago against Kansas State, they lost 65-56, and in the last game against Texas Tech they lost 91-75 At halftime, they were down 45-33 and in the second half, it got even worse. The Buffaloes shot 52.7 percent from the field, but it still wasn’t enough. Four different players put up at least 10 points. Bangor Dok also put up 12 points, four rebounds, and one assist. 

Colorado has an 11-19 overall record and 13-17 against the spread. The Buffaloes are averaging 69.9 points while their defense is giving up 72.3 points per game. They are shooting 74.74 percent from the free-throw line, which is 90th in the league. Julian Hammond III has been one of the only bright spots on this team, averaging 12.4 points while shooting 41.6 percent from the field and 38.2 percent from behind the three-point line.

• TCU has lost five of its last six road games against Conference opponents.
• Colorado has won the first half in 26 of its last 31 day games at CU Events Center.

Can TCU Bounce Back?

Two games ago against UCF, TCU secured the 89-78 victory, but in the last game against Baylor, they fell short. TCU scored only 58 points, and they lost by three points. In the second half, TCU scored only 23 points, and they can’t have a second half like that again. TCU shot 34.5 percent from the field and 28.6 percent from behind the three-point line. Noah Reynolds had a strong game putting up 16 points, four rebounds, and two assists. He was good, but they didn’t have a balanced enough offensive attack, and they need to get the scoring going here. 

TCU has a 1-14 overall record and has gone 12-18 against the spread. Away from home, they have gone only 2-8. TCU’s defense has been decent, but the offense is averaging only 6 points per game. Guard Noah Reynolds has been one of the only bright spots for this team. He’s averaging 12.3 points while shooting 42.5 percent from the field and 33 percent from behind the three-point line. 

Why TCU Will Beat Colorado

• Colorado has lost 18 of its last 20 games against Conference opponents.

TCU vs Colorado Prediction

This total is too high. Colorado’s offense has been a major issue heading into this game, and there is no reason to believe it will be any different here. TCU is giving up 68.5 points per game and they are going to lockdown even more here. TCU’s offense scored 68 points in the first game against Colorado, and they are going to struggle to even get that number here. The under is 7-1 in TCU’s last eight games following an against-the-spread win. Back the under to cash here.
