Spread & Over/Under Predictions for WVU at Kansas State

The Mountaineers are coming into this one as big favorites.

Each game day, we will release an article on our thoughts on the spread and the over/under of West Virginia games. The star ratings next to the play describe the overall confidence in that particular play.

Star ratings:

1 Star - Not very confident

2 Star - A little confident

3 Star - Fairly confident

4 Star - Very confident

5 Star - Should be a lock to happen

Spread: West Virginia -11

3-star play on Kansas State covering: I know West Virginia is clearly the more talented and experienced team but the Mountaineers haven't played in two weeks and I expect them to be a bit rusty. Playing on the road has not been easy for this squad over the last two seasons regardless of the opponent. I do believe the Mountaineers find a way to win but I'd be shocked if they blow the doors off of the Wildcats. Take K-State plus the points here. 

Over/Under: 135

1-star play on the over: As bad as West Virginia's offense seems at times, they always create ways to rack up points. To get over the total here, we basically need one team to get up and over 70, which I don't see being much of a problem. West Virginia has scored 70 or more points in seven straight games and we all know that the Mountaineers' defense can be suspect at times. This isn't a sure lock but I would lean toward the over.
