Free Texas Tech Red Raiders vs. Texas Longhorns NCAAB Prediction:
I like Texas Tech in this matchup. The Red Raiders play really good defense and have the ability to take out a team’s #1 player. They showed us that when they held Cade Cunningham to just 13 points and 3 of 12 shooting from the field. The only downside to that strategy is that Tech can be burnt by the role players and that’s exactly what happened against OK state. The Red Raiders will need to key in on Matt Coleman III in this game because he makes the Texas offense click if they can bottle up Coleman they should have a good shot at winning the game. That’s why I’m riding with Tech and the points in a low scoring affair.
