The BYU Cougars have really taken a freefall late in the season. The Cougars are a 20-win team, but they are 4-9 in their last 13 games. This will be interesting because Texas Tech has a key injury, but they started the season 16-4, and have since been 4-4. The state of these two teams is poor right now, so I have to fall back on history. BYU plays at a high altitude, and they have used it to their advantage, going 297-52 SU and covering 55.4% of those games. I think the home crowd is going to be the difference in this one, along with the thin air. Make the play on BYU.

Pro Picks
Texas Tech at BYU
Two of the best offenses in the country square off here, and this is the first time all season Texas Tech has been an underdog. They haven't exactly been tearing it up in the role of favorite of late, on a 3-2 run, losing to Texas A&M (72-67) and two games ago to Central Florida (87-83) as a 13-point favorite. The Red Raiders are on an 11-21 straight-up run on the road. BYU is in bounce-back mode after a brutal 86-55 loss at Houston as a double-digit dog. The Cougars average 82.5 points shooting 48% as a team. They're 8-0 at the Marriott Center where they've won 14 in a row. BYU has outscored opponents by more than 30 points per game (91.1-59.9) at home while shooting 52% from the field and 37.1% from area code three. The wagering value is on home court to win the game. Play BYU on the moneyline.
