Colorado is a 3½-point road favorite versus Texas Tech in the college football odds. Let’s check out my Colorado vs Texas Tech college football pick for this Big 12 clash.

Coach Prime had the best bye week ever. His squad is now rested and enters Week 11 with a legitimate chance to win the Big 12. The Buffs’ chances were helped by Iowa State and Kansas State both losing.

Speaking of Iowa State, Texas Tech pulled off a late comeback for one of the biggest upsets we have seen this college football season. The Red Raiders would need some help, but Texas Tech also has an outside chance to win the conference.

Here’s what you need to know as Colorado takes on Texas Tech.

2 Things to Know Before Betting Colorado vs Texas Tech

1. Colorado a Sleeper to Make College Football Playoff

Don’t look now Coach Prime haters, but Colorado has an outside chance to make the College Football Playoff. The Buffs sit at No. 20 in the initial rankings but have a chance to move up in the coming weeks.

Colorado likely needs to win the Big 12 in order to make the postseason. The good news for the Buffaloes is the team is likely to be favored in the majority of their remaining games, starting against Texas Tech. Colorado is also rewarding bettors in the college football betting lines going 6-2 ATS this season.

2. Texas Tech Is Better Than You Think

It feels like Texas Tech was left for dead after barely squeaking out an overtime win against Abilene Christian in Week 1. Don’t look now but Texas Tech has improved and sits at 4-2 in the conference standings.

The Red Raiders are coming off a signature win against Iowa State. That’s good news for Texas Tech, but it also means they are about to get Colorado’s full attention.

 

Colorado vs Texas Tech Prediction: Bet on Coach Prime and Colorado -3.5

There are two key reasons why Colorado has a chance to win the Big 12. It starts with the Buffs defense which is getting to the quarterback the way hipsters flock to $7 pour-over coffee. Also, Colorado’s offensive line is giving Shedeur Sanders more time to get the rock to his playmakers.

Yes, Texas Tech is much improved than the team we saw in September. Yet, I still have my doubts that the Red Raiders defense is going to find a way to slow down this Colorado Buffaloes offense.

Did we mention Colorado has superstar Travis Hunter on both sides of the ball?

Colorado is the much stronger squad and is a great option to include in your college football picks and parlays this week.

Bet This Pick: Colorado -3.5

 

Question of the Day

Why is Deion Sanders called Coach Prime?


It all goes back to his high school playing days. After scoring 37 points in a basketball match, a teammate nicknamed him “Prime Time”. The moniker transitioned to Coach Prime after he took up coaching.
