Texas Tech Red Raiders

To win the Big 12 +550

Over 8.5 RSW -125

Surprised not many are talking about them yet.  Deep oil pockets getting stud players to head over to Lubbock, Texas on both sides of the ball.  Schedule is relatively easy; hardest game will be first road conference game in Utah.

Call me crazy but give them a couple of years and they’ll be competing for a Natty.

Cody Campbell, get to know the name. 

i'm on arizona state +600 

you could do better than +550 if you like tex tech

I’ve seen some TT love and certainly wouldn’t fade these guys..great offseason 

Conference is a gauntlet..this early could almost throw a dart at 6 possible teams to claim championship. Red Raiders in spots will hammer some Teams. BOL with your wager, guns up! 

BOL

I heard on radio .. they have biggest payroll in college fb… 24 ish million…. These kids are pro athletes by definition.    But the more you got… the more you can get.

Tech is a very interesting story certainly a team to watch.  

I don’t know squat about them at the moment. The only think I am aware of is their payroll.  

As far as my preseason feeling?  As I said I can’t get to specific yet but sometimes teams that have invest so much might take a few weeks or even underperform in the first season. 

I could be a hot or not situation but I need to dig deeper on them to make a more informed and confident pick.  

As far as betting? I’d love to see them as a dog.  Maybe they will be ranked and lose once or twice and fall out of favor then bam they are dogs?  I doubt this happens but I’m open minded because I’m in the dark. 

Good job and thx for mentioning them.  This team curtail or should have lots of eyeballs in them.  As far as betting goes I love to follow teams that get a lot of attention. For bettors,  Indiana and Army were the early season stories last year.  This could be a team like that. 

Something to consider and your comment about a tough test early in Utah maybe a slow start team that gains huge momentum heading into  the playoff?  Just guessing here.  

Off topic 

If I can ask you as I saw you around last year.  What’s your style.  What are you best at?  Are you planning on posting a thread all season?  

Getting to know others on here is important so we can become more of a team? 

There are so many games and each week happens so fast.  I need to use my time wisely and that starts now.  

The season is getting very close.  

Best wishes in the season I really hope you succeed and post your weekly thoughts
