Oklahoma at Texas Tech: Three things to know

Despite missing leading scorer Austin Reaves and fellow senior G Alondes Williams, Oklahoma upset No. 8 Alabama as a 3.5-point home underdog 66-61 Saturday. Reaves and Williams were unavailable due to COVID-19 protocols and will also be out for this Texas Tech tilt. Oklahoma trailed Alabama 60-59 with 3:24 to go before sophomore F Jalen Hill sank 4 free throws and junior G Elijah Harkless hit a jumper with 20 seconds left and a free throw with 13 seconds remaining to seal it.Texas Tech snapped a 2-game skid with a 76-71 comeback victory at LSU Saturday in their SEC/Big 12 challenge matchup. The Red Raiders trailed 71-64 with 1:14 remaining before scoring the final 12 points to pick up the win and cover as 3.5-point favorites. Junior G Mac McClung (22 points) hit back-to-back 3-pointers and sophomore G Terrence Shannon Jr. (23 points) hit a go-ahead layup at the 29-second mark and added 4 free throws in the final 16 seconds. McClung averages a team-best 17.5 PPG.Texas Tech won the season’s first meeting 69-67 in late December, handing Oklahoma its only home loss of the season. The Red Raiders led the entire second half but never by more than 7 points. The Sooners trailed by 2 points several times in the final 20 minutes with a chance to tie or win at the buzzer. The rivals split their two games the previous season with the home team prevailing each time.

Oklahoma at Texas Tech: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Texas Tech 72, Oklahoma 63

Money line (ML)

I have Texas Tech winning, but the -300 price is too chalky. PASS.

Against the spread (ATS)

TEXAS TECH -6.5 (-110) is the STRONGEST PLAY – 1½ times your usual wager. All the hype is on Oklahoma. The Sooners own a 5-game win streak, including three in a row vs. top-10 teams: At home vs. then-No. 9 Kansas Jan. 23, at No. 5 Texas 80-79 Tuesday and Alabama Saturday.

The Sooners beat the Crimson Tide without Reaves but they were at home. Look for an Oklahoma letdown here despite being the much better ATS team this season.

ATS: Oklahoma 10-5 Texas Tech 7-10

Over/Under (O/U)

Back the UNDER 138.5 (-110). The Under has cashed in the last five in this series. The Red Raiders are really good defensively. They allow only 62.2 PPG to rank 21st in the country, and they’re 13th in adjusted defensive efficiency, according to Kenpom.com.

Plus, the Sooners will be without Reaves’ team-best 15.8 PPG.

O/U records: Oklahoma 6-9 Texas Tech 8-9

Browns at Chiefs: Game notes

TodayThe Browns topped the Steelers by a 48-37 score last weekend. It was a rare road win and cover for Cleveland, who posted a 5-3 straight up and 3-5 ATS mark in eight road contests in the regular season.Weather isn’t expected to play a huge factor in this game, with temperatures in the high 30’s and a very low chance of precipitation. Winds will be whipping between 10-15 mph from the northwest, so perhaps the passing and kicking games will be affected by the adverse conditions.The Chiefs ranked No. 1 in the NFL in both total yards (415.8) and passing yards (303.4), while ranking sixth in the league with 29.6 points per game.Defensively, Kansas City allowed 358.3 total yards per game to rank 16th, and it was just 21st in the NFL against the run, yielding 122.1 yards per outing. The Chiefs gave up 22.6 PPG to rank 10th.The Browns and Chiefs are meeting for the first time in the NFL postseason. Cleveland’s win last weekend was its first in the postseason since Jan. 1, 1995. The Chiefs, of course, won its most recent playoff game – in Super Bowl LIV.

Browns at Chiefs: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Chiefs 34, Browns 20

Money line (?)

The Chiefs (-500) are rested and raring to go after a bye last week, and most of their key personnel rested in Week 17, too.

Still, risking five times your potential return is just not a good long-term betting strategy. AVOID.

Against the spread (?)

Similarly to what we saw from the Los Angeles Rams and Green Bay Packers Saturday, expect the rested, top-seeded CHIEFS (-10) to push past the scrappy challenger.

Cleveland battled a lot of adversity just to get to Kansas City. If the Browns fall behind and are forced to get away from the run, which is their strength, it could be a long afternoon. I expect that to be exactly how things unfold, too.

Over/Under (?)

The Chiefs have a high-octane offense, so some bettors might be rather surprised that the Over/Under was just 8-8 for the defending champs during the regular season. The Chiefs averaged just 20.0 PPG across their final three home games, and the Under is 3-1 in their four games against playoff teams this season.

It won’t be a defensive slog, but this game will go UNDER 56.5 (-105).
