Washington at West Virginia

The Washington Huskies are from a power conference that had a very bad year. That is true, but the Huskies have put it all together and have become one of the nation’s hottest teams. A team that went through a 2-5 stretch and appeared designed for also-ran status, elevated its play, finishing 14-2 and currently rides a nine game winning streak. West Virginia has not played particularly well down the stretch and will be further hampered as they lost the services of Darryl Bryant, their point guard, to a broken foot. Bryant's floor leadership and 10.6 points per game will be missed. The Mountaineers have not responded favorably in this situation as they are just 5-18 ATS in their last 23 as a favorite of 6.5 or less. The Huskies are surging and are a live dog here.  I'll side with Washington in this one.
