Spread: West Virginia -47
1-star play on West Virginia covering: Anytime you have a spread this big, I always choose to stay away from it. You never know what the coaching staff will do with how long they leave their starters in, throw the ball, and so on. This has blowout written all over it and if I had to pick a side, I'd lean WVU. That said, it's not a bet I'd be willing to make.
Over/Under: 56
1-star play on the over: There's a good chance that West Virginia could cross the total by themselves. I have WVU putting up 55 which means all you need from Long Island is a score of some sort. This Mountaineer defense is solid but I don't see a shutout. Lean over.
