They’ve beaten all the other outstanding (and already bowl-eligible) Big 12 teams this year: Oklahoma, Missouri and Oklahoma State. That leaves the Texas Tech Red Raiders (8-0 SU, 3-2-1 ATS) to deal with Saturday night at Jones SBC Stadium. ABC carries the game starting at 8:00 p.m. Eastern.

The Red Raiders are 4-point home dogs in this matchup. The Longhorns have won every single meeting over the past five years, going 3-2 ATS and carrying the over to the pay window four times. Saturday’s contest figures to be another high-scoring affair. Texas Tech QB Graham Harrell has 28 TDs with just five picks, and the Longhorns secondary is vulnerable. Texas has an even bigger advantage at the other end with QB Colt McCoy (21 TDs, four INTs) and a superior running attack.
