Betting on the West Virginia Mountaineers
The West Virginia Mountaineers have gone from strength to strength in this NCAA regular campaign, and after losing in the first two weeks, they have been able to add consecutive victories in Week 3 against Towson 65-7, and in their Week 4 commitment to Virginia Tech 33-10, although their 2-2 record sees them just 10th in the Big 12.
Good defense has helped the Mountaineers to achieve these positive results.They have allowed an average of just 204 total yards in that pair of wins, although they will now face a big challenge against a team that until last week was ranked in the top 25 of the AP rankings.
Betting on the Texas Longhorns
Consistency hasn’t exactly been a friend to the Texas Longhorns this NCAA season, as the team has alternated between wins and losses in its four weeks of actionwith the last of those games being a 37-34 loss to Texas Tech in a rather crazy game that was decided by an overtime field goal.
That result, together with the good performances of other teams that week, caused Texas to lose its place in the top 25 of the AP ranking. But considering its trend this campaign, it will be confident that it can recover this time when playing at home.
JefeBet Prediction
As we mentioned, Texas’ tendency to alternate wins and losses makes us think that they can get a win in this match, but not only that, but they will have the home field advantage, and it is also important to highlight that his two victories this campaign came against teams ranked outside the top 25 of the AP rankingsas is the case in West Virginia.
In addition, while West Virginia comes in with two consecutive victories behind them, Towson and Virginia Tech are not exactly the best teams when it comes to measuring their strengths, which makes us think that unlike those games, this time they will suffer more than necessary.
Prediction: Texas Spread (WVU 27 – TEX 42)
