Oklahoma is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games against a team with a winning record and 0-5-1 ATS in their last 6 games following an ATS win while the over is 6-2 in their last 8 games against a team with a winning record. Texas Tech is 1-7-1 ATS in their last 9 games following a win and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 home games while the under is 8-3 in their last 11 games in November.

I get the case to be made for either side in this game, but I’m firmly on the over here. Head to head, the over’s hit in five straight meetings and just looking at the state of these two teams, both are bowl eligible, both are out of the race in the Big 12, so I think they’re going to let it loose here and put on a show to close out the year. Give me the over.
