Texas at West Virginia

Premium Pick

Texas is winless on the road and this is a tough spot against an angry, attacking West Virginia defense. Texas has been shorthanded much of the season, last in the Big 12 in scoring, free throw shooting (64.9%), and three-point shooting (30%). West Virginia plays its second straight home game, and coach Bob Huggins is still steaming about blowing a 14-point lead in the final minutes of an eventual 84-80 overtime loss at Kansas last week. They won, but didn't cover Saturday, and the Mountaineers are 15-7 ATS following a spread loss. West Virginia leads the nation in steals (11.1 per game) and has had eight contests with 15 or more, making this a tough spot for the struggling visitors. Play West Virginia.
