<h2>
How they got here<br />
</h2>
<p>
Texas Tech weathered a late second d half flurry by Michigan State to pull away in the end and win by 10 as a +2 underdog. The Red Raiders have been destroying opponents throughout the winning an average margin of 14 points with their lowest margin of victory being 6 points.
</p>
<p>
Virginia needed a questionable last second call to avoid defeat in their latest a 63 to 62 win over Auburn. Unlike the Red Raiders, the Cavaliers have survived to make it to the final with narrow victory over the Tigers, a five-point overtime win over the Boilermakers and a four-point win over the Ducks. Their backers have received a negative return with Virginia's 2-3 ATS mark.

<h2>
Why Texas Tech Will Win<br />
</h2>
<p>
The Red Raiders have been playing exceptional defense the entire tournament. Their last four opponents Michigan State (51), Gonzaga (69), Michigan (44) and Buffalo (58) registered their lowest scoring output of the season.
</p>
<h2>
Why Virginia Will Win<br />
</h2>
<p>
The Cavaliers lost just two games in the regular season with both being to the Blue Devils who most analysts would agree has the best talent in college basketball. They also suffered a loss in their ACC Conference tournament falling to the Seminoles, a team that is very long. Texas Tech certainly doesn't play small ball, but they don't hold a decided edge on Virginia.
