West Virginia Looks For Key Road Win

The West Virginia Mountaineers snapped a two-game losing streak in their last game, beating the struggling Arizona Wildcats on the road. That moved the Mountaineers to 4-4 overall on the season and 3-2 in the Big 12. West Virginia still has two winnable home games ahead of them to reach six wins and get to a bowl game. But a win this week would make things a whole lot easier on them. This season, the magic number has been 30 for the Mountaineers, as they are 4-1 in games in which they have scored 30 or more points.

Can Cincinnati Win, Become Bowl Eligible?

The Cincinnati Bearcats had a chance to become bowl eligible two weeks ago by beating the Colorado Buffaloes in Boulder. But they couldn’t get that done and they will look to cash in on their second attempt to hit six wins this week, after they were idle last week. Cincinnati’s defense has been hit-or-miss so far this season, shutting down teams like Arizona State and UCF while getting torched by Colorado and Texas Tech recently. Which version of that defense we get this week will be very important to the outcome of this contest.

West Virginia vs Cincinnati Prediction

This West Virginia vs Cincinnati matchup should be an interesting one, as both teams could really use it to help their bowl prospects. As far as our best bet for this game goes, we will lay the points with Cincinnati. Their defense has a higher upside than that of the Mountaineers, even if the Bearcats have been inconsistent on that side of the ball. Look for Cincinnati to win at home to become bowl eligible.
