Texas Tech Red Raiders vs. TCU Horned Frogs Key Stats

All eyes will be on TCU veteran QB Max Duggan and the offense again this week. The Horned Frogs average an incredibly impressive 44.3 points and almost 520 total yards of offense per game.

So far, Duggan has tallied over 2,200 yards through the air and found the endzone 22 times with only 2 interceptions. WR Quentin Johnston leads TCU receivers with 42 grabs for 650 yards.

The long list of TCU weapons continues with RB Kendre Miller, who has rushed for 850 yards and 11 touchdowns so far. This is without a doubt the most versatile and explosive offense in the Big 12 and that's why they're No. 7 in the country. TCU's defense is solid, but not as dominant as their offense; they allow an average of 27 points per game.

Texas Tech has had an interesting QB situation this year due to injuries. They've been running a multi-QB system for a few weeks, and so far the Red Raiders average 29.3 points per game with that system. It adds a unique twist for the defense to prepare for, but it shouldn't be a problem for TCU at this point.

Texas Tech can be efficient at times, but they'll need to bring everything they have if they want to stay in this game. Their defense will be make-or-break for them, a defense that allows 230 pass yards per game before facing TCU.

Texas Tech Red Raiders vs. TCU Horned Frogs Betting Prediction

If -330 isn't enough value for you, take advantage of a spread that is set much too low. For Texas Tech to keep this close, everything would have to go right and everything would have to go wrong for TCU.

Duggan and the TCU offense are going to have a chip on their shoulders after the recent playoff rankings. Expect the offense to leave their foot on the gas for longer than needed and to cover 8.5 easily.

Prediction: TCU -8.5 (-106), Quentin Johnston To Score a TD (-210)
