I ONLY MENTIONED THE SCORES OF LAST YEAR TO SHOW THAT WV CAN WIN AT RUTGERS, WHICH IS A HARD PLACE TO PLAY AT. PLUS WV HAS A RETURNING RATING HIGHER THAN RUTGERS. NOT MUCH, BUT I CONSIDER THE TEAMS TO BE EQUAL AS THEY WERE LAST YEAR.
THE VATECH DIFF. IS EASLY EXPLAINED, IT IS A INTRASTATE RIVAL. THAT IS LIKE COMPARING MICH AND MICH ST. THOSE TEAMS HATE EACH OTHER, BESIDES THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP-THAT GAME MEANS THE MOST.
BOTH TEAMS GOT BLOWN OUT ON THE RAOD BY THE ELITE OF THE CONF. BOTH TEAMS PLAYED WELL AT HOME VS THE ELITE.
HOME COURT IS BIG, BUT THIS IS A MIDDLE OF THE WEEK GAME, NOT A SUNDAY GAME- WHICH TENDS TO FAVOR BLOWOUTS FOR THE BETTER TEAMS, ECSPECIALLY AT HOME.
I WOULD HOPE YOU WOULD NEVER CHANGE YOUR MIND FOR ANYONE IN THIS FORUM BECAUSE OF THEIR OPINION OF A GAME. THERE IS NO LOCK....
I JUST GIVE YOU SOMETHING TO COMPARE YOUR GAMES TO ATS. MOST THE RATINGS GUYS/COMPANY'S DO THE COMPARES STRAIGHT UP, WHICH REALLY IS NO HELP. WHO CARES IF YOU CAN PREDICT 70% OF WINNERS WITHOUT A LINE, HELL WITHOUT A LINE I THINK YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO PREDICT 85%.
