Continue reading to get our prediction for this Colorado vs Texas Tech matchup in the Big 12.

Colorado Looks to Stay Hot In Big 12 Play

This season, the Colorado Buffaloes have been a legitimately good college football team. They are 6-2 overall and 4-1 in the Big 12, coming into this weekend’s play on a two-game winning streak. The Buffaloes have scored 34 points in each of their last two games, which is not all that impressive by their standards, speaking to how explosive they are offensively. But it will be the defense of Colorado that will need to step up for the Buffs to win yet another Big 12 game.

Can Texas Tech Upset Another Ranked Team?

Last week, the Texas Tech Red Raiders mounted a late scoring drive to complete an upset of the previously undefeated Iowa State Cyclones. Texas Tech’s defense stepped up in a big way in that game, holding Iowa State to just 22 points in Ames. But the Red Raiders will need to be even better on defense this week to slow down a Colorado team that has one of the best quarterback/wide receiver tandems in the country in Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter.

Colorado vs Texas Tech Best Bet

We will play the over in Saturday’s Colorado vs Texas Tech matchup in the Big 12. Texas Tech will likely struggle to get stops in this contest against a Colorado offense that is operating at a very high level. But the Red Raiders should also be able to put up plenty of points of their own in what should be one of the more entertaining games of the weekend in college football.
