No. 8 TCU vs. No. 9 Oklahoma (ESPNU, 7:00 p.m. ET)
Oklahoma reached the Final Four last season, but the Sooners picked up only 11 victories this season. Lon Kruger’s club covered the final six games of the campaign, including as three-point favorites in Saturday’s 73-68 home victory over TCU. The Horned Frogs are going in the opposite direction by losing seven consecutive games, while covering just once in this stretch in a one-point defeat to West Virginia. TCU began Big 12 play at 4-1 ATS, but Jamie Dixon’s team slipped to 3-11 ATS in the final 14 games of the season, including a 1-6 ATS mark away from Ft. Worth. The Horned Frogs have won the Big 12 tournament opener each of the last two seasons, while the Sooners are 2-3 SU in their last five tournament openers.

No. 7 Texas Tech vs. No. 10 Texas (ESPNU, 9:30 p.m. ET)
Texas failed to win a game away from Austin this season by compiling an 0-14 mark on the highway. The Longhorns look to extend their season for one more game against cross-state rival Texas Tech. The Red Raiders were also dreadful when playing away from Lubbock by going 2-10, including an 0-9 ledger in Big 12 play. Texas Tech and Texas split a pair of meetings this season with the home team winning each time as the Red Raiders knocked off the Longhorns on March 1 in Lubbock, 67-57. The Longhorns began Big 12 play by compiling an impressive 8-3 ATS record, but slipped to an 0-6-1 ATS mark in the final seven games.
