Kansas State beat Oklahoma State while Oklahoma lost to Texas Tech, and that enabled the
Wildcats to leapfrog the Sooners into fourth place.  And Baylor beat Texas while TCU lost
at West Virginia, enabling the Bears to leapfrog the Horned Frogs for sixth place.  No
other changes.

This Saturday is arguably Texas Tech's most difficult remaining game, on the road at Baylor,
where the Red Raiders are favored by only a fraction of a point.

Three road wins occurred in Round 13, putting us one win ahead of the long-term average of one road
win in three games.  Only one road win is projected for Round 14, and it is effectively a toss-up
game.

If you take performance into account, Tech's game at Baylor on Saturday isn't a toss-up, but still
well within the inconsistency.  Go Bears!

Am confused at your statement that this Sat might arguably be TT's toughest remaining game, as TT .1 pt favorite. Given that TT now has 10 wins, but only projected at a rounded 13 wins - that means two losses. Naturally I hope Baylor beats them. I would argue that at WVU will be tougher & of course at home against a renewed KU team.

Yes, I goofed by not paying attention to the signs, only the values.  Tech's remaining games have the following predicted margins and probabilities of victory:

AWAY   # 28 Baylor                                +0.14             0.505
AWAY   # 52 Oklahoma State                        +4.26             0.659
HOME   #  7 Kansas                                +1.39             0.545
AWAY   #  8 West Virginia                         -4.16             0.377
HOME   # 21 TCU                                   +6.13             0.735
