TEXAS TECH +1 over West Virginia – With the calendar hitting mid-October and many schools already halfway through their regular season schedule, West Virginia will be in unfamiliar territory Saturday on the South plains of Texas. For the first time in the 2016 season, the Mountaineers will be competing on an opponent’s home field when they travel to Lubbock, Texas to battle Texas Tech.
Texas Tech Welcomes West Virginia on Saturday
Behind junior quarterback Patrick Mahomes II, the Red Raiders’ offense routinely ranks among the nation’s best in most key statistical categories. Plus Lubbock is a particularly tricky stop for most Big XII visitors.
Texas Tech is 11-5 against the spread as a home underdog the past 10 seasons plus, including a 7-4 ATS mark against ranked teams in that role over the same span.
Take the Red Raiders plus 1 over the Mountaineers.
