Preview & Analysis: Texas Tech vs BYU 10/21/2023

Game Preview

 

Game Preview

 

On Saturday, the Texas Tech Red Raiders travel to BYU in a game that is all but a must-win. The Red Raiders are currently 3-4. Losing is not an option for Texas Tech because it still has home games over TCU and Kansas as well as away games versus Texas and Kansas. BYU is no pushover. Although they still have games against Texas and Oklahoma, the Cougars remain 4-2 overall.

 

Last week against Kansas State, the rookie quarterback Behren Morton was hurt early on and never fully recovered. He is currently a game-time choice. Tech will resort to third-string freshman QB Jake Strong, who threw 3 passes that were intercepted in the 2nd half versus Kansas State, if he is unable to play. This offense has to come up with a way to deliver the ball to Tahj Brooks on Saturday regardless of who plays.

 

In the game against the Wildcats, Jake Strong led the Raiders with 173 yards on 16 of 28 passes, one touchdown, as well as 3 interceptions. Additionally, he ran the ball 54 yards on one carry. Tahj Brooks accumulated 98 running yards on 17 carries for an average of 5.8 yards per carry and one rushing score. He also added 2 receptions for 22 yards. In the game, Coy Eakin had 5 receptions for 102 yards, averaging 20.4 yards per catch.

 

 

Fans will be wondering if BYU can recover from its loss to TCU. The Horned Frogs humiliated the Cougars this past weekend, defeating them 44–11. The defense was helpless against TCU’s backup quarterback, and the offense was terrible. This game will define how this squad’s campaign progresses moving forward because if they don’t react, the second half of their campaign will be a tough one.

 

In the Cougs’ game versus the Horned Frogs, Kedon Slovis completed 15 of 34 passes for 152 yards, no touchdowns, along with an interception. LJ Martin amassed a 14-carry, 56-yard performance, adding 4 receptions for an additional 19 yards. 3 passes were caught by Chase Roberts for a total of 63 yards, as well as averaging 21.0 yards per grab.

How to read NCAAF Odds?

The way in which NCAAF Odds are read is just like when reading odds for an NFL game. The odds in college football and in all other sports in which a person can bet on work as a competition leveler for sports betting purposes, especially considering that there will always be one team that’s considered a favorite even by the slightest advantage. Odds are used under the understanding that it allows both teams to be able to have a proportionate or even equal number of bets per side.

When reading the odds, you will usually see that the favored team in the matchup will have a “-“sign next to its name while the underdog will have a “+” next to its name. What that means for a favorite team is that bettors have to bet however much the number next to the “-“says in order to make $100. For the underdogs, bettors are told by the number next to the “+” how much money they would make if they were to wager $100.

How do spreads work in College Football?

When betting on your preferred NCAAF picks, you want to make sure that you are understanding everything going on around your wagers, which is why understanding how spreads work is something pivotal for winning. When reading a point spread most of the times there will be a favorite and an underdog, that is unless the matchup is so even that a favorite cannot be named. A favorite team, which usually is posted with a negative sign next to it usually has points taken away by book makers, which ends up meaning that for this team to win and cover the spread they must win by at least the number of points previously deducted in order to cover.

For underdogs, they will have a positive sign and will either win the game outright or lose by less points than the ones added by bookmakers in order to cover. While all that might sound hard to understand and deduct, that’s where a show like BetUS TV’s “The NCAAF Show” comes into play like an MVP, giving college football fans all the right tools and of course the best NCAAF predictions to be able to win at all times.
