This is a top 20 showdown featuring a West Virginia squad that has only one defeat. West Virginia has a deadly offense at #15 in yards per game, top 10 in passing yards, #16 in scoring with 39.9 points per contest behind senior QB Will Grier (25 TDs, seven INTs). The Mountaineers are 4-1-1 ATS against winning teams, including a 42-34 win at #25 Texas Tech. Road underdogs that average 400+ total yards per game are 130-65 ATS after gaining 525+ total yards in their previous game. They head to Texas, a team with a stumbling defense that has surrendered 45 and 38 points in two of its last three games. They come off a 38-35 loss to Oklahoma State as a favorite. The Longhorns couldn't cover wideout Tylan Wallace, who had 222 receiving yards, while running backs Justice Hill and Chuba Hubbard chewed up the Longhorns defense for a combined 172 rush yards. The Longhorns also squeezed by in narrow victories over Tulsa, K-State and Baylor and will struggle against this dazzling West Virginia offense. Play West Virginia.
