The Texas Tech Red Raiders will visit the Arizona Wildcats on February 14th. Can the Raiders beat out Big 12 rivals Arizona and force their second loss of the seasoN? McBets is backing Arizona to bounce back in this Saturday night matchup.

#16 Texas Tech, sitting 18-6 overall and 8-3 in Big 12 play, travels to face top-ranked Arizona at McKale Memorial Center on Saturday, February 14, tipping off at 6:30 PM ET with ESPN's College GameDay broadcasting from Tucson. With the Red Raiders riding a two-game win streak behind elite three-point shooting (39.1%, 10th nationally) and the dynamic duo of JT Toppin (21.5 PPG, 10.9 RPG) and Christian Anderson (19.1 PPG, 7.7 APG), this matchup pits a battle-tested road team that's 3-5 against top-25 opponents against a wounded giant looking to bounce back from its first loss of the season after falling 82-78 at Kansas and ending a 23-game win streak. The Wildcats (23-1, 10-1 Big 12) remain undefeated at home at 13-0 with nine victories by 25-plus points, anchored by the nation's 2nd-ranked defense (89.7 adjusted efficiency) and Motiejus Krivas' interior presence, while Arizona has dominated the recent head-to-head series with nine wins in the last 10 meetings as both teams operate at opposite ends of the momentum spectrum entering this nationally televised Big 12 showdown.

Pittsburgh, sitting in last place in the ACC at 9-16 overall and 2-10 in conference play, travels to face #11 North Carolina at the Dean E. Smith Center on Saturday, February 14, tipping off at 2:00 PM ET. With the Panthers navigating their fourth straight loss and winless against ranked opponents all season (0-8), this matchup pits a struggling squad that's failed to cover in six of their last 10 games against a Tar Heels team playing its first contest without star freshman Caleb Wilson (fractured left hand, out indefinitely) but riding a perfect 14-0 home record at the Dean Dome as the 19-5, 7-4 ACC Tar Heels look to bounce back from their Miami loss and protect their tournament seeding while Pitt searches for any sign of life in a season that's already slipped away.
