The West Virginia Mountaineers were 15-2 and ranked in the top 10, but lost their last two games, both as solid chalk. They probably got caught looking ahead to this showdown at home vs. Kansas. The Jayhawks are 18-1 on the season and many will look at this line and say what? The Mountaineers are a solid favorite, and have won 23 of their last 26 at home. They are 40 minutes of relentless pressure, and often get a lot of easy hoops because of it. They have had the Jayhawks’ number at home as the last three times they have come to Morgantown, they left on the short side of the scoreboard, and this Mountaineers team may be the best they have faced yet. Play on West Virginia to get the straight-up win.
