    The word is not injury but momentum.

    West Virginia is losing momentum.

    Momentum is an indication how a team is performing RIGHT NOW.

    WV lost their last 3 games straight up and against the spread.

    I am not surprised the line is moving against them.

      this has nothing to do with injuries and everything to do with WVU's papier mache defense.

        I'm thinking of jumping on WV and the +9.5, anyone playing this game or passing?

          i'm strongly considering the over or the Okie State TT over. for what it's worth, if you like WVU, you might want to wait and see if you can get +10. BOL whatever you decide.

                hmmm, just checked weather report for Stillwater and it's not good for over backers.

                20% chance of rain Saturday, but more importantly, winds at 20-35 mph with gusts to 45 mph. may have to pass just because of the wind.

                  Good Insight, going to take WVU, but may wait to 10 or buy the hook

                      A move from 7.5 to 9.5 really isn't that significant. Kind of a "no man's land" of numbers if you will.

                        That would be true if the line moves from 7.5 to 9.5 by half point increment like : 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, 9.0

                        Look at the line movements and you will see a 1 point increment.

                        Half point increments are generally caused by the public. 1 point increments and more are not.

                        It takes a big bet to make that happen. And you know who makes big bets. It isn't the public.

                          good stuff, fellas. while NC is correct about how little resistance there is between 7.5 and 9.5 ("dead numbers"), you are right about the increments. guess this game is officially a pass for me with the weather, but could be a really great watch.

                            buy low, sell high. WVU is one of those teams you bet when they are a dog

                              Just like many unstable teams, WVU is a classic quality dog, and bad favorite. They'll cover.
