What the ESPN BPI Says About WVU's Chances Against Florida
In this story:
West Virginia is set to play its final game of the Phil Knight Legacy tournament Sunday evening in Portland against the Florida Gators.
The Mountaineers have had a few guys battling the stomach bug throughout the last few days but managed to bounce back following a 12-point loss to Purdue to defeat Portland State comfortably. There was no shortage of offense as six Mountaineers finished the game in double digits; Tre Mitchell (16), Emmitt Matthews Jr. (14), Kedrian Johnson (12), Seth Wilson (12), Joe Toussaint (11), and Erik Stevenson (11).
Florida lost a high-scoring affair (90-83) in the opening game of the tournament to Xavier but defeated Oregon State on Friday behind a 19-point performance from Trey Bonham. The Gators enter tonight's matchup with a 4-2 record and currently sit 42nd in the KenPom ratings.
According to the ESPN BPI, West Virginia has a 53.1% chance to win while Florida has a 46.9% chance.
