The Texas Tech Red Raiders (7-5, 5-4 Big 12) will take on the Ole Miss Rebels (8-4, 4-4 SEC) in the TaxAct Texas Bowl at NRG Stadium in Houston, TX.
In the Red Raiders’ first season under Joey McGuire, they finished their regular season on a high note. They won three games in a row despite quarterback changes throughout the season due to injury. Texas Tech’s last win of the season came in a 51-48 thriller over Oklahoma.
The Rebels did not end their season on a high note. They lost four of their last five games after starting the year 7-0 under Lane Kiffin. The Ole Miss running game has caused problems for opposing defenses all season, ranking 10th in yards per rush attempt (5.4). Leading the rushing attack was Quinshon Judkins, who threw for 1,476 yards and 16 touchdowns this year.
Here’s everything you need from a betting perspective on the Texas Tech vs. Ole Miss game, from point spread, money line, Over/Under total and expert pick (with probabilities through Bet FOX).
