What the heck am I missing here? I feel obliged to place my largest unit on this game. I realize WVU may not press as much in the past, but only having one guard with meaningful experience in a packed house doesn't seem like a good formula. I just don't see how we could score enough to stay within 20.
WVU - 13.5

I listened to Huggins presser last night going into this game.
He seemed to think The Citadel would have given a lot of good legit teams problems the way they shot it and spread the floor and I actually agree the way they spread the floor, they were pretty impressive against us. He said he watched the game 4 times. The freshmen kid that torched us, Roche, already has 21 points so far in their game today. He also has 9 boards and 3 steals and its only midway in the 2nd half. They are playing a bad team, but there is no way the Citadel is as bad as their preseason ranking would indicate the way Roche is playing as a true freshmen so far. He is killing it from 3. Im really looking forward to seeing that team against Duke.
Also a neat little fact. Huggins talked about the transfer market being bad for basketball and kids transferring to 5 schools in 5 years and how crazy it really is today. He slipped when he said Ryan Murphy called him to transfer to West Virginia and play for him as soon as he was leaving Pitt. Murphy literally called Huggins to transfer to West Virginia. I was in shock to hear that.
Murph Dog musta thought his stupid bow and arrow would have worked well with the hillbilly musket!
Lucky me. It was 13/13.5 since it posted, including up until around lunch time today when I bet it on Draftkings.
