Premium Pick

West Virginia comes off of two tough losses to Oklahoma and Texas Tech, but the Mountaineers still are #34 in the country in total yards allowed and #11 in rushing defense. They were down 17-0 at the half and made a valiant comeback that came up just short against the Red Raiders, who were outgained 424-346 by West Virginia. Jarret Doege completed 25 of 33 for 318 yards and a touchdown, and Isaiah Esdale and Winston Wright, Jr. combined for 219 receiving yards on 15 catches for the Mountaineers. Baylor lost 24-14 to Oklahoma State, which racked up 219 rushing yards, and Gerry Bohanon completed only 13 of 17 for 173 yards with no touchdowns. The Bears are #13 in rushing yards, but the Mountaineers are capable of neutralizing that advantage. West Virginia has covered the last three meetings, including 27-21 in overtime last year as a one-point underdog. The Mountaineers are 6-2 ATS after a loss and 5-2 ATS their last seven as road dogs. Also, Baylor is 6-15-1 ATS its past 22 games versus teams with losing records. Play West Virginia for a Max Play.
