California vs Texas Tech Independence Bowl Prop Bets
The California Golden Bears went 6-6 both Straight Up and Against The Spread this season. The Texas Tech Red Raiders also went 6-6 SU but 5-7 Against The Spread. These teams do not have any recent meetings.
Cal has been a +3 dog with the line occasionally dipping as low as +2. We get a number of 2.88 Texas Tech, very much ensuring an accurate line. Our model indicates no edge with a line on the money between 2 and 3.
The Independence Bowl is played annually each December at Independence Stadium in Shreveport, Louisiana. It rewards a 2.2 million.
Per Wikipedia, "In January 2020, the bowl announced a six-year sequence of games that will feature an independent program (either Army or BYU) against a team from either the Pac-12, Conference USA (C-USA), or the American Athletic Conference (The American). Once BYU joined the Big 12 in 2023, the bowl announced that a bid to the Big 12 overall would replace BYU in their upcoming schedule rotation."
