Northern Colorado scores 87.4 points per game, which is high, but they play at a very slow pace with 61.3 possessions per game. Texas Tech, scoring 81.9 points per game, plays faster with 68.9 possessions. Given the pace difference and Texas Tech's home advantage, they should cover the -23.5 spread. The projected score is Texas Tech 95, Northern Colorado 70.</p> <p>For the over/under pick, the total is set at 154.5 points. Northern Colorado's high scoring is offset by their slow pace, while Texas Tech plays faster but scores less. Combining these factors, the total may fall just below the set line.
