BIG AL's BIG 12 CONFERENCE GAME OF THE YEAR!

Texas Tech Red Raiders (6-3) vs Colorado Buffaloes (6-2)

Saturday, November 09, 2024 at 4:00 pm

At 4 pm, on Saturday, our selection is on the Colorado Buffaloes minus the points over Texas Tech. The Red Raiders stunned then-undefeated Iowa State, 23-22, last week, as a 13.5-point road underdog. Meanwhile, Colorado had last week off after downing the Cincy Bearcats, 34-23, two weeks ago to move its record to 6-2. We'll fade the Red Raiders, as underdogs have cashed just 37.2% since 1980 after defeating an undefeated opponent with a 7-0 (or better) record. Additionally, the Red Raiders are 8-17 ATS as underdogs of +10 (or less) points off an upset win, while Colorado has gone 11-4 ATS vs. foes off upset wins, when the Buffs owned a .666 (or better) win percentage. Finally, Texas Tech is 2-7 ATS as an unrested home dog vs. a rested foe, while Colorado is 5-1-1 its last 7 when playing with rest, and 8-1-1 ATS its last 10 when playing a foe with a winning record. Lay the points. Good luck, as always...Al McMordie.
