- What: NCAA Men’s Sweet 16 Game
- When: March 27, 2025
- Who: Arkansas Razorbacks vs. Texas Tech Red Raiders
- Time: 7:09 p.m. PST
- Where: Chase Center (San Francisco, CA)
On Thursday, the No. 10 seed Arkansas Razorbacks will face the No. 3 seed Texas Tech Red Raiders in the Sweet 16 of the 2025 NCAA Tournament.
Riding high on confidence, the Razorbacks come into this game after defeating the No. 2 seed St. John’s 75-66 in the second round.
Meanwhile, Texas Tech has reported convincing victories in both tournament games, winning by double digits, including a 77-64 triumph over Drake on March 22.
The winner of this matchup will advance to the Elite Eight, where it will face either the top-seeded Florida Gators or the No. 4 seed Maryland Terrapins.
However, Texas Tech is facing some uncertainty as both Chance McMillian and Eemeli Yalaho are listed as questionable due to upper body injuries.
It is advisable to look at Arkansas to cover the +5.5 point spread, as it offers almost three buckets of cushion. If you’re hesitant about playing it straight up, opting for the points with some extra room is a savvy choice.
The Razorbacks have been solid, going 3-0-1 against the spread (ATS) in their last four postseason games and 11-3-1 ATS in their previous 15 since February 1.
On the other hand, while Texas Tech has been successful overall, they’ve struggled with a 1-3 ATS record in their four postseason games and have a 5-8 ATS mark over their last 13 contests.
