Today, the Texas Tech football team finds itself in an unusual place, entering a Big 12 game as a substantial favorite. Thus, after spending most of the season focusing on how to beat the teams higher up in the Big 12’s hierarchy, Matt Wells’ focus today has to be on making certain that his team does not suffer a humiliating upset.
According to The Action Network, Tech is a 4.5-point favorite, which may not be as large of a spread as many Red Raider fans would expect. Still, anyone would consider a loss to the Jayhawks a monumental failure and a new low for a program that has seen its share in the last decade.
