Texas Tech Red Raiders vs Oklahoma State Cowboys Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 11/23/24

The Texas Tech Red Raiders will travel north to Oklahoma to take on the Oklahoma State Cowboys in a Big 12 battle. Texas Tech is currently 6-4 with a record of 4-3 in conference. Its last game was a 41-27 loss against Colorado. The Red Raiders led early 13-0 in the 2nd quarter but then lost all momentum. It was closer in the end than the score entails. Colorado had a scoop and score in the final minute to push the lead to double-digits. Following a bye week since the loss, Texas Tech will get the chance to rebound against the Big 12’s last-place team. This season has gone horribly wrong for the Cowboys. After starting 3-0, Oklahoma State has lost 7 straight games all in conference. It ha looked uninspired in their last 3 games — losing to Baylor by 10, Arizona State by 21 and TCU by 25.

The story for Oklahoma State this season has been any time the offense has been able to put up points and show a level of competitiveness, the defense gets in the way and can’t stop the opposing team. Oklahoma State has lost 4 games by 21 or more points because its defense has surrendered an average of nearly 500 yards and 31.9 points per game. That ranks OSU in second-to-last place in the conference in points allowed. The only team that is worse: the Texas Tech Red Raiders. Texas Tech has allowed on average 35.1 points per game but has paired that will an explosive offense that averages 35.5 ppg. Quarterback Behren Morton and running back Tahj Brooks have proven to be a lethal dual threat for the Red Raiders’ offense. I just don’t feel confident backing them considering their defense and that this game will be played in Oklahoma. Instead, I’ll back the over. Both offenses have proven they can run or pass, and each defense has shown it can’t stop either.
