Oklahoma State vs West Virginia Prediction

The Oklahoma State Cowboys have won twice on the road and have an upset win over Miami, so this isn’t a team to take lightly. The problem is, Oklahoma has also failed to cover each of its last four games and is 3-9 ATS on the season. The West Virginia Mountaineers also have an elite defense that’s not going to make Oklahoma State very comfortable. West Virginia is undefeated at home. The last time we saw West Virginia, it was giving Kansas fits defensively and pulled off an upset as a double-digit underdog. Basically, Oklahoma State has to show me more in a spot like this. The line is reasonable. Give me West Virginia in a double-digit victory.
