Sooners Not Profitable As Home Favorites

The Oklahoma Sooners have been nearly untouchable in Norman, as they have won 16 consecutive games with an average scoring margin of +17.4 points at the Lloyd Noble Center. Despite that, the team has been terrible at covering at home as favorites with the team going 0-5 ATS in their past five games in that spot. The Sooners will be faves in Norman once again when they host the Texas Tech Red Raiders Tuesday. 

Shark Bites
  • Oklahoma is 6-0 SU in their last six games coming off two days rest.
  • Texas Tech is 2-14 ATS in their last 16 games as underdogs of 14 points or more.
  • The OVER is 6-1 in Oklahoma’s past seven home games.

The Sooners are the best 3-point shooting team in the nation with Buddy Hield and Jordan Woodard both shooting over 50 percent from beyond the arc. Hield has arguably been the best player in the nation this season as the senior is averaging 25.7 points per game and has only scored less than 19 points twice in the past 14 games.

Texas Tech have been struggling to beat the best teams in the nation as they have lost 11 consecutive games against ranked opponents, but the last eight of those have come by 10 points or less. The Red Raiders attack is one of balance with seven players averaging at least 18 minutes played and six members of the squad are averaging more than eight points per game.
