Texas at TCU: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Texas 75, TCU 65
Money line (ML)
This is a game between two very different teams in terms of what is going to happen moving forward. Texas is expected to make the NCAA Tournament. TCU will pretty much only do that if it manages to get hot and win the Big 12 tournament. Having gone 5-10 in conference play, that seems unlikely.
Texas won big when the two teams played one another last month so don’t expect anything much different. Texas will win but with the line at -350, PASS in favor of the spread.

Against the spread (ATS)
Neither team has been a good bet against the spread this season. Texas is 9-13-1 ATS and TCU is only 10-14 ATS.
TCU has covered the spread only twice in 12 home games this season and Texas is 4-3 ATS on the road. Take TEXAS -7.5 (-105).
Over/Under (O/U)
The two teams combined for 125 points in their February game. Texas is 14-9 O/U this season and has had the total go Over in 12 of its last 16 games.
Take OVER 137.5 POINTS (-110).
