That the number of away games they have played all year. They have played 4 nuetral court games, but those dont count for the type of environment they will face.
The 4 away games all have been in Big East play against Rutgers, Depaul, Providence, and Georgetown. 3 tomato cans, and one schizo team.
WVU is good to go tomorrow. NO Gibbs = less scoring, and I'm certain they are not used to playing with out him.
I normally would ALWAYS take Pitt in this spot. A top 5 team on the road, getting a point against a team hovering in and out of the top #25, that really lacks a go to scorer. And to be honest, I usually lose 70% of the time in these spots, so I'm going to play the percentages here, and jump on WVU. Pitt isn't ranked top 5 on the backs of one player, but I think his absense will have some type of effect, especially in his first game out. At 6-4 in the Big East, WVU needs this game much more then Pitt does, big Rivalry game, Casey Mitchell finally back, gotta back the home side here.
