Kansas vs Texas Tech – Big 12 Week 7 Betting Preview
The Kansas Jayhawks bring their high-powered offense into Lubbock to face the unbeaten Texas Tech Red Raiders.
Kansas looks to prove it can compete with a top-10 opponent after two close losses, while Texas Tech continues its march toward a Big 12 title push behind one of the nation’s best defenses.
Kansas can win if
Quarterback Jalon Daniels keeps the offense balanced and efficient. Daniels has thrown for 1,497 yards and 16 touchdowns while adding 239 yards on the ground. His chemistry with Emmanuel Henderson Jr., the Big 12 leader in receiving yards, gives Kansas an explosive edge against any defense.
The Jayhawks rank 18th nationally in passing yards and 15th in total points scored, with 210 on the season. They’ve also improved defensively, ranking top 10 in sacks and interceptions.
If the offensive line can protect Daniels against Texas Tech’s relentless pass rush, Kansas has the firepower to turn this into a shootout. The Jayhawks must also capitalize in the red zone — a key area where they’ve struggled in close losses.
Texas Tech can win if
They continue dominating defensively and control time of possession. The Red Raiders allow only 244.4 yards per game, ranking ninth in the country, and have given up just 11.2 points per contest — fourth-best nationally.
Quarterback Behren Morton leads an offense that’s quietly efficient, throwing for 1,410 yards and 12 touchdowns. Running back Cameron Dickey adds balance, rushing for 330 yards and six scores, helping Texas Tech rank fifth in the nation in passing yards and fourth in total points scored (243).
Linebacker David Bailey, with 6.5 tackles for loss and 5.5 sacks, anchors a defense that’s among the most disruptive in the Big 12. If the Red Raiders can limit Daniels’ mobility and pressure him consistently, they can force turnovers and seize control early.
Line Movement and Odds
Opening: Texas Tech -13 / Kansas +13
Current: Texas Tech -13.5 / Kansas +13.5
