TEXAS TECH AND OKLAHOMA STATISTICS AND RANKINGS
THE HEAD-TO-HEAD MATCHUP
THE RED RAIDERS WILL COVER IF…
They can keep the Sooners field goal percentage below 42.7 percent. Oklahoma has lost eight of their last 10 games, and the one common theme in defeat has been poor shooting performances. The Sooners are shooting a combined 42.7 percent from the field and have lost by an average deficit of 9.75 points in those eight games. For an Oklahoma team that hasn’t shot the ball well as of late, facing the No. 8 defense in field goal percentage allowed isn’t the ideal matchup. In their last two wins the Sooners shot a combined 56.4 percent and while 42.7 percent sounds easily attainable, Big 12 opponents are shooting a combined 37.5 percent in 10 conference games against Texas Tech. If the Red Raiders can continue to play their brand of defensive basketball and make life difficult for Oklahoma on the offensive end, then that will go a long way towards helping them cover the spread.
THE SOONERS WILL COVER IF…
They can score 70 points or more. Oklahoma is 1-4 against the spread in their last five games with their only win coming on the road against West Virginia. They scored 72 points against the Mountaineers, and the Sooners are an impressive 11-2 on the season when they crack the 70-point mark. Sounds easy enough, except for the fact that the Red Raider defense has allowed opponents to score 70 points or more only three times this season, and they’re 1-2 in those games. Texas Tech is allowing 64.4 points per game in their five Big 12 road contests, so Oklahoma reaching 70 isn’t too far-fetched. The Sooners will need a couple of big offensive performances from the likes of Tanner Groves, Umoja Gibson, Jordan Goldwire, or Elijah Harkless to get there. If Oklahoma can shoot the ball well and put-up points on the scoreboard, then that will go a long way towards helping them cover the spread.
