Texas Tech Red Raiders
Team Preview!
The Texas Tech Red Raiders (8-4) are coming off a dominant 52-15 win over West Virginia. They've had a solid season with notable victories over Oklahoma State and Iowa State. Their high-powered offense averages nearly 40 points per game, but they'll be without starting QB Behren Morton due to injury.
Backup Will Hammond will take the reins, while star running back Tahj Brooks (1,505 yards, 17 TDs) will continue to lead the charge. Texas Tech's defense, while not as strong, has shown flashes throughout the year.
The Arkansas Razorbacks
Team Preview!y
The Arkansas Razorbacks (6-6) are coming off a tough 28-21 loss to Missouri. They've had some ups and downs this season, with wins over Tennessee and Auburn, but also losses to Texas and LSU.Â
Their offense, led by QB Taylen Green (2,813 yards, 13 TDs), can move the ball, but they're facing a serious challenge: a depleted offensive line. With many players opting out, they only have six scholarship linemen available, which could seriously impact their performance in the bowl game.
The Texas Tech vs Arkansas Game Prediction!
The Pick: OVER 52.5 -110
Texas Tech's been on a bit of a roll lately, dropping 50+ in their last couple of games. They're missing their starting QB, which is a bummer, but their running back should be good to go. Their passing game? Eh, we'll see. Arkansas might have Green back at QB, but they're missing some key guys up front and a few skill players. Honestly, both teams have some serious question marks coming into this one. But here's the thing: Texas Tech's defense? Not exactly a brick wall this year. I think we're gonna see some points scored. I'm taking the over on this one.
