West Virginia at LSU

LSU is the sleeper team in the SEC this season. Brandon Bass decided to come back to school which was huge for this program. WVU is one of the lower tier Big East teams, and will have a tough time with the Tigers down low in this contest. WVU will give some teams headaches on their homecourt but will have a tough time away from home. LSU has too much in this spot for the Mountaineers. Home favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points in a non-conference game, off a home win scoring 85 or more points are 63% ATS. West Virginia is 1-6 ATSin road games versus excellent teams - shooting >=45% with a defense of <=42% over the last 3 seasons. One star on the Tigers in this one (1% of bankroll).
