The Red Raiders last played Wednesday, failing to cover as 21.5-point favorites in a 78-71 victory over Nicholls State. Freshman G Pop Isaacs found twine on 5 triples in that game, and he tallied a season-high 24 points. Isaacs and TTU are 0-3 ATS over their last 3 games.

Eastern Washington at Texas Tech picks and predictions Prediction
Texas Tech 74, Eastern Washington 60
Moneyline
Texas Tech (-1700) is almost certainly the correct side, but there’s no value here.
PASS.
Against the spread
The Eagles are 23-5 ATS in their last 28 road games vs. teams with a winning home record. The Red Raiders are 1-10 ATS in their last 11 games following a straight-up win.
Texas Tech’s recent performances have been uneven. Overall, the Raiders have relied a bit too much on some hot shooting nights and they are turnover prone enough that a little regression gets twice the effect on output.
The Eagles launch it frequently from 3-point range. They are not a top-notch distance shooting team but are rounding into form of late. Enough so to up the odds of a back-door cover on this figure.
TAKE EASTERN WASHINGTON +16.5 (-105).
Over/Under
Considering this a well-made total. PASS.
