The #18 Texas Tech Red Raiders take on the #7 Kansas Jayhawks after Terrence Shannon Jr. scored 23 points in Texas Tech’s 78-65 victory over the West Virginia Mountaineers. The Jayhawks have gone 8-0 in home games. Kansas is 14-1 against opponents over .500. The Red Raiders have gone 5-2 against Big 12 opponents. Texas Tech ranks 3rd in the Big 12 with 34.5 rebounds per game. Ochai Agbaji is scoring 20.4 points per game and averaging 4.9 rebounds for the Jayhawks. Texas Tech beat Kansas at home earlier this month by a score of 75-67, in the Jayhawks’ only conference loss of the season. The Jayhawks will be looking for revenge in this spot with a sub-par game over the weekend against Kansas State being a sign they are preparing for the Red Raiders. Kansas plays much better at home and will be able to get their offense going against a stingy defense. Take Kansas to cover the spread in this one.
