The Texas Longhorns go for their fourth straight win tonight when they host the Red Raiders of Texas Tech.

The 6th-ranked Longhorns are 17-4 SU this season and 8-2 in the Big 12. They have also been profitable for their backers at 11-6 ATS overall and 6-3 ATS at home. They hosted Nebraska Saturday and despite trailing late in the first half they came away with a solid 75-63 victory. Texas is tied with Oklahoma for third place in the Big 12, one game behind first-place Kansas (9-1).

Bobby Knight's Red Raiders have lost two of their last three and are now 14-7 overall and 4-6 in conference play. Last time out they lost 63-58 at home to the Sooners. They have lost four of their last five on the road and may struggle tonight to keep in touch with the powerful Longhorns.

The four most recent meetings between these teams at the Frank Erwin Center have resulted in comprehensive Texas victories each time...by 25, 16, 16 and 18 points respectively.

The fact that the public are all over the Red Raiders only increases our confidence and tonight we expect Texas to post a comfortable DD victory.

Recommended Play: Texas -8.5
