Raiders Eye Big 12 Title Berth vs. Mountaineers
29 Nov
Summary
- Texas Tech aims for a Big 12 championship game bid.
- West Virginia has covered the spread in four of last six.
- The over has hit in five of West Virginia's last seven games.
The No. 7 Texas Tech Red Raiders are set to face the West Virginia Mountaineers on Saturday, with a spot in the Big 12 Championship Game at stake. Texas Tech enters the contest on a strong four-game winning streak and is in prime position to secure their first conference championship since 2008. Their recent dominant victory over UCF underscores their current form.
West Virginia, despite a challenging season, has shown resilience, particularly in covering the spread in recent matchups. Their last game saw them narrowly lose to Arizona State after a late rally, indicating they can compete. The Mountaineers have covered the spread in four of their last six games and are playing their final home game of the season, which could fuel their performance.
The betting lines heavily favor Texas Tech, but the Mountaineers' recent ATS success and a tendency for their games to go over the total suggest a potentially closer contest than anticipated. With both teams coming off a bye week, the Red Raiders aim to clinch their title game spot while West Virginia looks to play spoiler.
