Texas Tech +3.5 vs. Missouri: Big 12 UpsetTony George calls the Big 12 Upset of the Day! Off Losing (or tying) Carrie Stroup last week, and my tail between my legs, I hammer back with this little underdog gem to redeem myself to the Gambling 911 faithful!
Texas Tech +3.5 @ Missouri
Mizzou off a devastating loss at Oklahoma. They played well, but turned it over. Cannot ignore Missouri's 100th ranked pass defense against Texas Tech and Graham Harrell's 31 TD pasesd against 3 picks and over 3100 yards through the air. No one has stopped Tech, and Missou's suspect defense rears its ugly head this Saturday.
Missouri has beaten Nebraska and Illionis in a fluke win to open the season, and Nebraska stinks this year without question. Take those two wins into the proper light, and Missouri is overrated. It simply is a matter of match-ups, and Missouri will get hurt on defense time and time again in a shootout. Tech is not a monster on defense themselves, but have more offensive firepower to outpace Missouri here. This will be a wild one in Columbia.
Texas Tech 42 Missouri 38.
Should we give Tony a link after being embarrassed by Carrie last week? Sure, Why not?
