Mountaineers with an upset
West Virginia is coming off a surprising win on the road last weekend, best Kansas State 24-20 to put an end to a five-game losing streak. The Mountaineers are now 4-6 on the season, 2-5 in the Big 12, 4-5-1 against the spread and 6-4 with the under.

College Football Betting Trends
Oklahoma State
The Cowboys are 21-7 with the over in their last 28 games in November and 27-13 with the over in their last 40 Big 12 games.
West Virginia
The Mountaineers have hit the over in five of their last six following a win and in five of their last seven games in November.
Prediction:
These two have hit the over in their last two meetings, but I expect things to be much different this time around. Oklahoma State’s defense is in a nice groove right now and facing a WVU team that hasn’t scored more than 24 points in over a month. The Mountaineers just can’t get on track with the ball. Oklahoma State also hasn’t been setting the world ablaze on offense. The Cowboys haven’t scored more than 35 points in two months. I don’t think that changes on the road. Oddsmakers are asking for a little too much from these offenses to get to 61 points.
