What to Watch
The line is the story. West Virginia is favored by double digits over a ranked opponent, which is the market saying it does not rate Virginia’s two wins. The Cavaliers beat NC State in Week 0 and then played one FCS opponent, so the best result on their record is three weeks old.
West Virginia’s seven point win over Coastal Carolina is the counterweight. That suggests a defense that can be moved on, and Virginia scored 34 on an ACC opponent. The full breakdown is on our West Virginia vs. Virginia preview.
