What the ESPN BPI Says About WVU at UCF

Can the Mountaineers pick up a win on the road?

West Virginia is 0-2 in true road games this season and 0-5 when playing anywhere but the WVU Coliseum. They look to change that Tuesday night as they ride high coming off a win over No. 3 Kansas.

Big man Jesse Edwards is questionable for the Mountaineers, but is nearing his return after missing over a month with a fractured wrist. If he's unable to go, fill-in center Pat Suemnick will be tasked with handling seven-footer Ibrahima Diallo whenever he's in the game.

Suemnick has played well dating back to the Ohio State game in late December. Over the last three games, though, he's really turned it up a notch averaging 15 points and 6.3 rebounds per game.

As for the Knights, it's been an up and down start to the new year for them alternating wins and losses, including dropping three of the last five. Despite the inability to get on a roll, it has been a tough stretch and they've managed it fairly well given their welcome to the Big 12 was to play Kansas State, Kansas, BYU, Texas, and Houston.

According to the ESPN BPI, West Virginia has just a 12.4% chance of winning while UCF has 87.6% chance.
