Its gone from 6.5 at my book to 4 and is at 3.5 at some.:missingte
What more must Texas do?? they went into then #1 Oklahoma as a TD dog and won by 10. next week everyone was saying no way they could get up again and face another top 10 school and they distroyed Missouri and got done against a very very good Oklahoma St. team.
Give me a break this is a great team filled with good leaders and a very good coach. They know everyone thinks they will fail at some point. hell it was the top story on foxsports.com and espn.com the Monday after they beat Oklahoma, that no way they could get through this stretch of games without a loss.
They dont slip up here, Texas wins this game by a TD or more and the more Texas Tech fans keep with the "lock" picks and eays money talk the more this line goes down and the better my odds get.

Like the line movement as well. I assume this is a touchdown win for Texas. Was not going to play it at 6.5 but now that it is down i am on it. Going to wait until saturday see if i can get it lower. Waiting for the over under, went to this game last year, cant remeber exactly were it was but a little over 100 points scored.

Agreed on this week but I think if Oklahoma and Texas meet again, we might see an OU win. Having said that, this week Texas Tech is pure public perception pushing this line down. They are feeding off that 63-21 demolishing of KU in Kansus. I have to agree that Texas wins this so keep pushing that line down Joe Public.

I love Texas in this spot as well. Too much Hype for TT. Don't know why no one like Texas, but I for sure do...

Texas backers are clearly caught up in their program prestige and past.

The line is being bet down because the sharps know these two teams are of the same ability... and giving 4-6 points to the home team of an even matchup is ludicrous.

Joe Public will be on the TEXAS LONGHORNS when it is all said and done.

Right now, a little more money is coming in on Texas Tech, because the early line bettors (typically sharper than average) are hitting this line.

The public is typically the guy who places his wager on Saturday morning. This type of bettor will see a very nice line of Texas -3/Texas -4 and hammer it.

The public perception is the LONGHORNS are for real. And Texas Tech is their typical, offensive system selves who will lose to any sort of a good team like they always do.

I agree...But the only problem now is this line has been bet down close to the line that I had for this game, which is Texas -3. So after that big initial hit, I'm probably going to wait here and see if the Texas money starts coming back in for this game to move it back up..

I like TT here but this does remind me a lot of the MIZZ game where the line went from 6/7 down to 4....we all know how that turned out. Many differences between the two and I am staying with the thought that TT wins and/or at least covers.

The difference is this one is being played on the road. And TT isn't coming off a disheartening loss like Mizzou was. But I understand what your saying. It wouldn't surprise me to see some more Texas money coming in at the end of the week to drive the line back up.

i think you'll see that line go back up and settle in the 4.5 range, maybe 5
