And one of the 7 predictions they made is for Texas Tech to knock off Oklahoma. Interesting.

In 2017, the Red Raiders rallied at the end of the season to knock off Texas and ensure head coach Kliff Kingsbury would see another year in Lubbock. Texas Tech athletic director Kirby Hocutt probably would prefer the team not be in need of another face-saving win in the season’s final month. Beating the defending Big 12 champions could still take a little heat off Kingsbury should the situation arise.

Note that the Red Raiders have played well against the Sooners in their last two meetings, and they might have the kind of defense to keep the team out of a barrage of shootouts in '18.
