West Virginia isn’t THAT bad.
It’s not the Mountaineer team of last year, the offense isn’t anything consistently special, and the defense isn’t good enough to pick up the slack, but it’s a home game, and a decent-enough team is a double-digit home dog.
And I do love my DDHDs.
Several years ago the picks at CFN went on a ridiculous run hitting 80% ATS for a stretch on double-digit home dogs in conference play after the first week of October. It was an aberration, but it was enough to believe that at this time of year in conference play, home teams tend to be just good enough to not get destroyed.
Iowa State is playing well, Brock Purdy would be a lock for the Big 12 Player of the Year if it wasn’t for those Hurts and Ehlinger guys, and the offense has enough to explode on the Mountaineers.
But it’s the team’s second road game of the season. It lost its first one to Baylor.
The world is offering you 10.5 points to a home team in conference play that might go bowling. Don’t be rude.
