Texas Tech Red Raiders at Wyoming Cowboys

Saturday, 6:30 p.m. CT, CBS

Texas Tech is a dark-horse candidate in the Big 12 this season, and people think they can do something similar to what TCU did in 2022. Well, it starts here, and even if Wyoming is not a powerhouse, it is a road game against a half-decent team to start off the year. I expect TTU to pull away in this one, but a slow start could put them in a tricky position.

Final Score Prediction: 33-17, Texas Tech
