Texas Tech Red Raiders -3 over Oklahoma State
You know what, you could consider this a let down game for Texas Tech. You could certainly make a case for that but in my mind, you'd come up short. Every one wants to talk about the let down game and yes, teams do let down but I don't see that happening with Texas Tech. What people don't understand about let down games is they tend to take place after a big win when a team sees a lesser opponent the following week. They don't practice as hard, they know they are going to win just by showing up and all of a sudden they find themselves in a battle with a team they are much better then.
That's not the case this week. Believe me, Okie State has the attention of the Texas Tech Red Raiders. Tech is on revenge as we have all seen the way they lost last year with the dropped pass in the end zone.
But here's the thing. If this team could dominate Texas like they did in the first half of last week's game, they can certainly do the same, or even worse to Okie State. In my mind, Texas Tech is the more complete team and at home,they are flat out great. Oklahoma State has to go there and play the perfect game and I don't see that happening. They could barely beat this team last year at home and Texas Tech is much better this year then they were last year.
This is a 14 point win minimum I feel. They shut down the Texas offense last week and remember, Texas beat Oklahoma State. There will be no letdown, there will be no upset. What there will be is a huge win for the Red Raiders. 14 points minimum and it could be much worse. Take TT
