Texas @ TTU

[plane-o-1]

# 5 Texas comes into town to play a TTU team that got crushed on the road by TX A & M Wed. Actually crushed is putting it mildly. This game is important to TTU. They need to improve their RPI for a chance at the dance.

I like TTU in this situation for the following reasons:
1. Playing at home, TT is truely a home team.
2. Texas is ranked # 5, TTU loves to beat ranked teams at home, done this two times so far this year I believe.
3.This is a rivalry game. IMO Tech's biggest.
4. Game is on CBS. Tech's energy level goes up when at home on TV. The place will be rocking with loud students.

This combination of Home, ranked fav opp, rivalry game and TV gives TTU a good shot at covering this game and an outside shot at winning it outright if Texas decides to relax during this game. Also the A & M game was an humiliating experience for TTU, I don't see them playing as bad against Texas.

Good Luck to ALL at the MALL!!!

My opinion on this game is that Texas is on a roll right now and Tech in on a downward sprial. That game against A&M degrated the Red Raiders. I think texas rolls. They are just too big inside and Augistine has a field day. Texas by DD IMO. BOL on what ever side you are on.

hey plano, how you been doing in your picks? I was gone for about a month..

Texas Tech is not very good at all, and while they are better at home I can't see them winning this one. Texas is playing the hottest ball in the country and should probably be the #1 team. No way do they let down here.

Well Texas may win but I think less than 5.
