West Virginia vs Texas Tech Prediction & Picks 11/30/2024

The West Virginia Mountaineers will take on the Texas Tech Red Raiders on November 30, 2024, at 12:00 pm EST. According to the betting odds from DraftKings Sportsbook, the Texas Tech Red Raiders are favored by 3.5 points. The total for this game has been set at 64.5. This matchup is expected to be a close and high-scoring game, with both teams looking to secure a important victory. Here, we look at West Virginia vs Texas Tech and make our pick for this one in the betting markets.

Can West Virginia Keep Faint Big 12 Hopes Alive?

West Virginia is still in the race for the Big 12 title game, even if their hopes of getting there are incredibly slim entering Saturday. The Mountaineers got a win at home over UCF last week to keep themselves in the hunt, holding a potent UCF offense to just 21 points in that contest. The defense of West Virginia will once again need to step up against an explosive opponent this weekend, as they take on a Texas Tech team that is tied for 13th in the FBS in points per game on the season.

Texas Tech Also In the Big 12 Mix

Texas Tech is 5-3 in the Big 12 which, like West Virginia, gives them a glimmer of hope that they can make the Big 12 title game with a win and a ton of help this week. The Red Raiders scored 56 points to beat Oklahoma State last week to keep themselves in contention. But giving up 48 points to an Oklahoma State team that is winless in conference play this season is very concerning. It will likely be up to the Texas Tech offense to simply outscore West Virginia in this game if they want to stay alive in the Big 12 race.

West Virginia vs Texas Tech Prediction

Our best bet is the over in West Virginia vs Texas Tech on Saturday afternoon. Both teams in this game have excellent offenses and defenses that are inconsistent at best. We anticipate Texas Tech winning this game, but we feel more confident in the over coming in, as both of these teams should do plenty of scoring in Lubbock.
