West Virginia at Iowa State

Premium Pick

The West Virginia Mountaineers are a tough team to play against. They play 94 feet for 40 minutes, pressing relentlessly the entire game, while shuffling players in and out. The chaos has created over 22 turnovers committed by opponents on the season, and a lot of easy points. It is one reason why the Mountaineers own a 17-4 record on the season. Iowa State enters at 13-7. They take care of the ball very well, and turn it over fewer than 10 times a game, but lost at home with a better team to West Virginia as a five-point favorite, and turned the ball over 16 times in the process. I look for another close game, but the turnovers will be the difference, so I will go with West Virginia on the moneyline.
