Big homecourt advantage tonight getting 9 points is too good to pass. Pitt is WVU's most hated rival...the Coliseum will be rocking. WVU is suprising the country this year..including me...wins over Florida Tennessee and Miami...just took Georgetown in overtime in DC.

Pitt just played Sunday at Rutgers..so, they probably didn't prepare for WVU spread, backdoor cuts. All things point to WVU win S/U

West Virginia, which is 20-4 all-time against the Panthers at the Coliseum, boasts victories over then-No. 8 Florida (68-66), Tennessee (65-62) and Miami (68-63), and would love more than anything to knock arch-rival Pitt off its lofty perch.

Here's our take on the game.....

Here's our take on the game.....

The West Virginia Mountaineers look to stay perfect at home tonight when they host Big East conference rivals the Pittsburgh Panthers.

The 9-4 Mountaineers go in as heavy dogs against the third-ranked Panthers. But West Virginia are 9-0 SU and 6-0-1 ATS this season at home so the double-digit start appears rather enticing. Although they have lost three of their last five games SU following a six-game winning streak, all three losses came on the road. They should be able to give a good account of themselves tonight at home.

The 12-1 Panthers struggled to get past Rutgers Sunday before some clutch play gave them a 70-63 win. They are 3-1 SU and 2-2 ATS on the road this season and will once again look for a big contribution from senior forward Ontario Lett who yesterday was named co-Big East Player of the Week.

Pittsburgh have covered the last five in this series but we expect that run to come to a halt tonight as the home dog Moutaineers keep it close enough to cover.

Recommended Play: West Virginia +11

Watched both teams this year, and my take is that WVU has a game-plan, and that game plan is to run clock--spread the floor and get good shots. The crowd will be rocking and all the close calls will go to WVU---however, Pitt a strong rebounding team will beat up WVU on the offensive glass and defensive. This is going to be a huge advantage and if Pitt committs less than 14 turnovers i see a pitt cover tonight. Because the boards will be dominated tonight, Wvu will be limited to 1 shot. I see a slow start to this game, should keep the first-half under. Wvu likes to mix up the defenses, half-court trap, man to man, match-up zone----If Knight can reconize the defenses (i believe he can) it could a nightmare for WVU----Georgetown should of punished WVu, but WVU did a great job in changing up the defenses making G-town shoot ill-advised shots and committing numerous turn-overs.... Believe Pitt has the experience to take care of the ball and take good shots and have the intellingence to get the ball inside. My opinion---FIrst-half stays under, WVU trys and spread the floor and eat up clock---but gets down and then has to play catch-up..Good lUck
