West Virginia at Kansas

West Virginia has gone form a national player in recent years to a team struggling to even qualify for a minimal Bowl. The fall has been swift, and even with a pro-caliber QB last year in Geno Smith, they lost six games including a drubbing by Syracuse 38-14 in their Bowl game. The Mountaineers have not been a good road team over the last two years where they own all of three wins, and two of those were by 3 points and the other by a touchdown. As a result, they are in a tough spot laying nearly a TD here. Kansas doesn't have a lot to brag about, but they do own a 3-2 ATS mark in their last five, and both their wins have come at home. The Jayhawks' losses have come against far superior teams, which is not representative of this opponent. Kansas is 13-3 ATS in their last 16 here vs. a team with a losing road record. And, Kansas is 21-8 ATS in their last 29 games vs. bad defensive teams like WVA (teams allowing 31+ points per game). Play on the home dog Kansas.
