Spread: West Virginia -3.5

2-star play on West Virginia covering (-3.5): This is about as strong of a 2-star play as one could have. No, things haven't gone well for the Mountaineers lately and coming off a blowout loss to your bitter rival always makes you wonder about the psyche of the team. However, I think they'll rebound and get that sour taste out of their mouths. They understand that there's a lot of basketball left to be played this season but they need to turn it soon.

Over/Under: 129.5

1-star play on the over: I don't think this game flies over the total, but I there will be just enough offense to get us there. West Virginia has done a great job all year of getting to the free throw line, so if they can just knock down a few more triples we should be good with the over here. Seth Wilson finally snaps out of it and buries multiple shots from deep.

Last year's picks:

ATS record: 4-4 (50%)

O/U record: 7-1 (86%)

Overall: 10-4 (71%)
