Doing the math.
It's going to take 11 TD's combined to push this to 77, 3 FG's to get this to over 85.
That's a minimum of 14 combined scores, going to need at more that that, figure 17 scores (FG or TD) to make this 85 over happen.
What some people don't realize is that yes, Baylor puts up 60 a game, they also have a top 7 in the nation defense.
Tech can play some defense, Tech is middle of the pack stat wise regarding team defense.
Baylor will get their 51 or so Saturday, they ain't reaching their 60, should get 48.
I'm putting Bears on 48.
Look at the TT schedule , forget the 61 they hung on SF Austin, when they faced the teams that have a real program, Tech only averages 27.
Their last three games, all losses, Tech scored 90 (30 per) Tech won 20-10 over #24 TCU 20-10.
TCU and OK and OK State doesn't play nearly at the level on defense as Baylor does, Baylor is a borderline elite defensive unit.

85 is a gigantic number here.
Baylor will get their 48 or 51
TT average 37, they ain't sniffing that number, Tech averages about 27 or 28 against the better defensive teams, they ain't getting that either.
Putting TT on a 24 spot.
Don't think Baylor's defense will be pumped either.
You need two to put a total like 85 over.
Tech won't score nearly enough in this game to even put the 85 in jeopardy.
Baylor wins like 51-24
