Making a small play on Texas -2 with the line moving down.
Originally I was going to avoid this game all together but once I looked into it, Texas seems to stand out to me more then the line movement suggests. Tech hasn't really been battle tested yet (and won), and they're going against a cruising Texas team at home. Tech lost to OSU, Kansas, and Houston all at home. They barely beat OU on the road and this is only their 3rd road game and 1st back to back road game. And I cant get over the Kansas St. (who is awful) win by 11 where they made 30 FTs. Other than those games, the defensive stats are padded by a ridiculously weak schedule. I will say, Texas starts a very tough schedule for the raid raiders to end the season on, so this game will tell us a lot about them. Bright spot for Tech is they get to the line and score at a high clip. One of the best in the country at that.
With that said, I love the height advantage Texas is getting. They're going to be fired up at home in a rivalry game. They still get to the line, make the FTs and play great defense without fouling. It's probably not the best bet on the board but I am excited for the game and lean the home favorite here. I am curious to hear counter argument.
