AAA's 10* *Texas/WVU* BLOCKBUSTER (HUGE 10* NCAAB RUN!)
(NCAAB) Texas vs. West Virginia,
Point Spread: -3.50 | -120.00 West Virginia (Home)
Result: Win
This is a 10* BLOCKBUSTER on West Virginia.

For a number of different reasons I expect the home side to pull away down the stretch for the comfortable ATS cover. I played this line right when it came out and got 2.5 and it's since gone up, but regardless, I really like this play. WVU looks to keep the momentum rolling after knocking off a pair of ranked teams, while Texas hasn't beaten a Top 25 opponent since beating the Mountaineers just last month. The "revenge" factor is in full effect today. The Mountaineers have turned things around, they had dropped three of four before last Monday's 62-61 home win over no. 8 Kansas and then Saturday's 73-63 victory at then-No. 22 Oklahoma State: "We win because we play harder than everyone else," coach Bob Huggins said last night. "We don't win because we shoot better or pass better or anything like that." In fact, to call this a "revenge" game would be a bit of an understatement I think as the Longhorns have won four straight in the series. Since that win over the Mountaineers, Texas has been free-falling and could miss the NCAA Tournament for the second time in three seasons. The Longhorns are most recently coming off a disheartening 71-69 loss at then-No. 17 Oklahoma on Tuesday and Saturday's 85-77 defeat to then-No. 14 Iowa State. Note that Texas is just 3-4 ATS off a loss vs. a conference rival this year, while WVU is 3-2 ATS in revenging a road loss vs. an opponent. In my opinion, this line should be larger, play on the MOUNTAINEERS.
