The Texas Longhorns are gearing up for their final regular season game before making the move to the SEC, and they're looking for some payback against the Texas Tech Red Raiders. The Red Raiders handed the Longhorns a loss in 2022, and now Texas is ready to even the score before they say goodbye to their in-state rivals.

Despite being the underdogs, Texas Tech has had some impressive moments this season, including a close game against No. 6 Oregon. The Longhorns are well aware of the challenge the Red Raiders present, and they're not expecting an easy win in their upcoming matchup.

Both teams have tended to go under their projected totals this season, but in their last five meetings, the Longhorns and Red Raiders have consistently hit the over. Sportsbook Wire is still predicting the over for this game, despite the teams' tendencies.

According to Sports Illustrated, Texas is the clear favorite, but the Red Raiders' unpredictability makes them a potential threat. Fox Sports is predicting a 33-19 victory for Texas, giving the Longhorns an 84.3% chance of winning. However, Doc Sports is backing Texas Tech, with a +13 spread, citing Texas' defensive vulnerabilities.

With Texas' defense being a point of concern, the Red Raiders will look to exploit their weaknesses, although their historical struggles against Texas could pose a challenge. The upcoming game is sure to be an intense showdown between these two fierce rivals.
