Texas Tech fans are hoping for a big win over the Sun Devils this Saturday, and oddsmakers say it will happen.
The betting line for the Texas Tech vs. Arizona State matchup looks almost too good to be true. With the Red Raiders standing undefeated at 6-0 and ranked #7 in the nation, the question has shifted from “Can they win?” to “How much will they win by?” That’s not arrogance — it’s just how dominant this team has become.
The stats tell the story: Texas Tech has covered the spread in every game this season — a perfect 100% record against the odds. Meanwhile, Arizona State’s numbers paint them as solid but not spectacular. Sure, there’s always room for a surprise upset in college football, but logic and momentum are both pointing hard in Tech’s direction.
Betting Preview: Red Raiders Poised to Cover the Spread Yet Again
Oddsmakers, however, have set Tech as only 7.5-point favorites, a figure that seems almost laughable given their recent performances. ESPN analysts even list Texas Tech as one of their “Best Bets” of the week, and it’s easy to see why.
Travel and environment shouldn’t rattle the Red Raiders either. The mid-afternoon kickoff (3:00 p.m. Texas time) won’t catch them groggy, and the desert climate of Arizona won’t faze a team used to the heat in Lubbock. Add in the likelihood of a sea of Red Raider fans in the stands, and home-field advantage for ASU starts to look pretty flimsy.

The bottom line? The old Texas Tech might have been unpredictable, but the new Texas Tech has swagger, consistency, and firepower. Expect them not only to win — but to do it by at least two touchdowns.
