Texas Tech at Oklahoma picks and predictions
Prediction
Oklahoma 72, Texas Tech 64
Moneyline
PASS.
The Oklahoma moneyline is just too expensive here to suggest. However, the spread for the Sooners has value.
Against the spread
BET OKLAHOMA -3.5 (-110).
Unlike many Big 12 games, neither of these teams have played many close games. Oklahoma is 3-3 ATS in conference games and 2-1 straight up at conference home games. None of those 6 games ended within 3 or fewer points.
For the Red Raiders, only 1 of 5 have ended within 7. They are 1-1 ATS on the road and 1-1 ATS against ranked opponents. Both their top 2 scoring options shoot under 44% from the field while 3 of Oklahoma's top-4 options shoot at least 54%.
Take the more consistent, efficient side to win outright, and per the trends, they should also cover if they do that. Back OKLAHOMA -3.5 (-110).

Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 139.5 (-105).
The Red Raiders are 11-7 O/U on the season but have scored 60 or fewer in 2 of their last 3 games.
The Sooners have gone Under in 3 straight conference games and have scored 71 or fewer in all but 1. They are 2-4 O/U in Big 12 play and 9-10 O/U on the season.
Considering the trends for the home side and the recent lack of success for the Texas Tech attack, bet UNDER 139.5 (-105).
