    Buffalo vs Texas Tech Game Center

    Standout Stats

    • The Red Raiders emerged from a tight game to pull away late in a 72-57 win over Northern Kentucky in the first round. Texas Tech’s defense has been outstanding this season, as the Red Raiders rank behind only Virginia in points allowed per game.
    • Buffalo is coming off a 91-74 victory over Arizona State in the first round, as the Bulls held the Sun Devils to just 3-for-22 shooting from beyond the arc. Four Bulls ended up in double figures in scoring, with Jeremy Harris and Nick Perkins leading the way with 21 points apiece.
    • Jarrett Culver paced the Red Raiders offense with a game-high 29 points along with eight rebounds and seven assists, while Tariq Owens chipped in 12 points and blocked five shots. Texas Tech received 10 points and five boards from Davide Moretti.
    • The Bulls are on quite the run right now, as they’ve won 13 games in a row with an average winning margin of 15.5 points. Buffalo has been especially profitable in this spot as an underdog, going 10-3 ATS in its previous 13 when tabbed as a dog.
    • Texas Tech has been a red-hot OVER bet lately. In the Red Raiders’ last eight contests, the OVER is 6-2 with an average combined score of 145.9 points. The Bulls have gone OVER in each of their last three with an average combined score of 163.7 points.

    My best bet for Texas Tech-Buffalo

    Buffalo +3.5

    The Bulls haven’t faced a defense like Texas Tech’s this season, but I think they have enough weapons to get the job done and advance to the Sweet 16. It’s going to be a close game but I don’t think oddsmakers are giving Buffalo enough credit, so take the underdog +3.5 spread.
