Texas Tech/Oregon what am I missing

Chiefs83 · 2026-01-01T16:56:11+00:00

Oregon went from -135 to +123
would love to get some replies….debating whether to cash out my Oregon bets

Chiefs83 · 2026-01-01T16:58:39+00:00

Oregon +123
massive movement

TT has better defense than Hoosiers and Indiana had 6 sacks against Ducks. Expect TT to have more sacks and pressure against Ducks.

not sure good question. I lean tech and under

I liked Oregon as well. Plenty of love for Texas Tech on these sites tho

I think TT has one loss on ATS for the season.

Out of all the playoff games sides I liked Oregon to win
#1 pick was under 41.5 last night

Chief, I think one angle: *Oregon plays in a higher profile conference. Ducks are on TV more.
...Re-formed Big12 is lower profile.
...Observers aren't quite as sure about TX Tech.
...TXTech schedule wasn't overwhelming. Should the two BYU wins impress?
...Truth is that TXTech is talented. Good team. Assuming the QB is healthy (after rest), they should demonstrate that they're every bit as good as Oregon.

*One aspect that I'll be watching: If Moore is asked to pass to win the game, is he accurate enough? The talent is there, but I'm not convinced he can perform as a precise passer.

I watch college football. I know all the teams. Have seen both play many times. Thanks for the insight. I’m sticking with Oregon.

Taking TT as Ducks don’t play well against strong defense.

Winner of this game wins the whole deal. Did not like the bracket when it first came out as I was hoping this could be the potential Final. Pulling for TT, I did a small future on them after they beat Utah back in Oct, but wil root for Ducks if they win this.

I think TT finds a way. Oregon left way too many points on the field.

A few halftime comments:

1) Moore is proving me wrong. High Comp%. But his Yards/Comp is not high.
...TxTech may need an INT to win this game. Force Moore to throw into tight windows.

2) 100% agree w/ Lanning going for 4th/2 at 4:00.
...You want to either: score the td...OR...get the last scoring chance of the half.
...Sappington is a reliable K. Made the FG.

If I'm TxTech, I don't feel too bad. DEF hanging tough. Have to figure out some offense.
