The model favored TTU to win, and the call landed.

Texas Tech's got this one favored at 75 percent, and the model likes what it's seeing from the Red Raiders lately. They've been playing better football over their last five games and they've got the rankings advantage as a top 15 team in the country. Houston's not out of it at 25 percent, especially with their offense clicking a bit more efficiently, but they're looking up at a seven and a half point spread in a Big 12 conference game where Texas Tech's just playing the better brand of football right now.
