Nevada at Texas Tech

This is the second straight road game for unbeaten Nevada and its toughest test of the season. This team started 5-1 a year ago with a soft schedule, outside of a trip to a Top 25 team in St. Mary's...and it didn't go well in an 81-63 defeat. Nevada shot 14-for-24 from the free throw line that game. They are not strong free throw shooting team this season, either, off a win over UC Irvine shooting 14-of-21 (66.6%) from the line while getting outrebounded 45-32, including 18-8 on the offensive glass. They face a one-loss Texas Tech squad that is playing outstanding defense. The Red Raiders average 9.4 steals as a team, tied for #18 nationally. Texas Tech is home and won't be in a good mood, off its first defeat of the season, an unusually poor defensive game. T-Tech stepped up against No. 20 Northwestern on a neutral court and rolled, 85-49. This is a great bounce back spot for the home team and the wagering value is on the Red Raiders to win the game. Play Texas Tech on the moneyline.
