Texas Tech vs Houston Prediction

Texas Tech is the better team in this matchup and will do the work this week to get the win. Houston, however, is stout on the defensive side and will thrive in front of their home fans. Take the Cougars to do enough on both sides of the ball to keep things close enough to cover the number against a good Texas Tech team. Final Score Prediction, Texas Tech Red Raiders win, but the Houston Cougars cover 37-31.
