West Virginia vs. Texas

March 13, 2014
img9:43 PM Eastern

The Texas Longhorns had it all going for a pretty good stretch during the regular season. The Horns went on a stellar 16-4 run where they maintained a high level of play for a good chunk of the season. They have dropped off as the season came to a close, winning just two of their last six games, and haven't looked like the same confident team. Bob Huggins has been a good tournament coach, and he has his Mountaineers off a huge win against Kansas in their last game, which should give them some energy here. The Longhorns' late season fade left them at 1-5 ATS in their final six games, and a lot of questions surround this team entering the Big-12 Tourney. West Virginia has been a momentum team, having posted an 8-3 ATS mark after scoring 90+ in their previous game. Grab the points on West Virginia in this one.
