The West Virginia Mountaineers and Oklahoma Sooners face off on Tuesday in a college basketball showdown at the Lloyd Noble Center. When these two teams faced off on January 26th it was Oklahoma that won 72-62. 

Oklahoma was led by Tanner Groves who had 21 points and six rebounds. Gabe Osabuohien was the top player for West Virginia scoring 17 points. 

West Virginia comes into this game with a 14-15 record overall and they have gone 12-17 against the spread. The Mountaineers have lost two games in a row by a total of four points. The Mountaineers made a comeback in the second half, but it wasn’t enough as they were defeated by a point. West Virginia is averaging 68.8 points while their defense is giving up 68.5 points per game. Taz Sherman has been the top player for the Mountaineers averaging 18.3 points while shooting 41.9 percent from the field. 

On the other side of this matchup is the Oklahoma Sooners who sit with a 15-14 record overall and they have gone 12-16-1 against the spread. This has been a down season for Oklahoma but they are coming off a big win. Oklahoma only gave up 62 points including in overtime and that led to a four point victory over Oklahoma State. Oklahoma is averaging 68.4 points while their defense is giving up 64.9 points per game. Tanner Groves has been the top player for Oklahoma averaging 12.1 points while shooting 53.7 percent from the field. 

West Virginia is 1-4 against the spread in their last five games following an against the spread win. The over is 15-3 in West Virginia’s last 18 games overall. The over is 4-1 in the Sooners last five games against a team with a losing straight up record. 

Away from home, West Virginia is 1-9 straight up and there is no reason to believe it’s going to be any different in this game. Look for West Virginia to struggle to score, and reaching even 60 points will be a challenge. Back Oklahoma against the spread. This is one of my favorite plays on the board.
