Epic Revenge Spot for Huggins. His former protege Brad Underwood knocked out the Mountaineers last March as coach of SFA(as a 14 seed). And now Underwood is going for win #100 in his career. He's 99-16 in his career as a coach. That's a filthy good record.
The coaches know each other well, they've worked together and are friends. But you can't tell me that this will be just another ordinary game. Underwood will want his 100th win vs his old teacher, and Huggins wants to stick it to him for last years tournament dream crusher. Here's a quote that makes me think Huggy will have his guys prepared:
* Huggins was asked about the conversation he had with Underwood following his team’s loss to Underwood’s team Stephen F. Austin in the NCAA tournament.
“We talked for quite a while afterwards about a lot of stuff. I think I’ve been very open and very honest in that I don’t think our guys took them very seriously,” Huggins admitted. “I thought our guys had horrible practices and as much as I tried to get them back on track I couldn’t do it. We came out really flat and they came out and hit us in the mouth.”
Both these teams are built similarly. They press/trap/pressure teams into turnovers. They both crash the boards better than anyone. They both run fast tempo.
The Cowboy's Jawun Evans will probably be the best player on the floor. But they also rely on Freshmen a lot, who account for 40% of their minutes.
There's a few key things that I'm seeing that make me like WVU in this game. But the line movement is a big one.
Betonline and another book opened it WVU-5. (Sagarin line is -4.18) It's since crashed down to -1. Most the books have the juice between -105/-110, Betonline is at -115.
Is SOS important here?
WVU beat Virginia(ranked #1 by KP) in their house. Okie got destroyed by North Carolina(ranked #4 by KP) on a neutral court. We just saw Virginia handle Louisville(ranked #8) in Loui. What do you think Virginia would do to Okie(ranked #33)?
*read that at least twice*
I haven't looked at any bet % numbers yet, but I can absolutely guarantee the public will be/all ready is on WVU.
So why the 4 pt line move? Any thoughts appreciated
