Bookies.com: Bet the under in Oregon State vs Texas Tech game
Bill Speros writes: "The Big 12 favorites and QB Will Hammond enjoyed a Week 1 scrimmage win over Abilene Christian. But the Raiders failed to cover the 42.5 number in a 33-10 win. Joey McGuire is the rare coach who’s happy with a convincing victory. Not a massacre. Remember, the Big 12 champ gets an automatic playoff berth, and Tech remains the massive favorite to both reach and win that game. The Raiders wrap it up early and then take it easy."
