West Virginia Mountaineers vs Morgan State Bears Preview & Prediction

The Mountaineers need to stay close early to avoid late game pressure which they often succumb to. The key for them may be using their unique defensive styles to create a bit of confusion. They do rebound well and need to use their athleticism. It would help to hit shots from the line as it has been a sore spot for the team. If Mr. Clutch Butler can keep doing his thing, a final four berth is possible.

Morgan State has a dependable scoring guard, but will need to capitalize on mistakes. At the same time Holmes needs to not make any of his own as he tends to choose the wrong shots. He has the skills but lacks concentration. If he can handle the pressure he will be a force. Jackson needs to avoid the foul to stay in the game. Davis needs to find his groove fast. In short, too many things need to fall into place….but it could happen.

The odds makers have the Mountaineers as -17-point favorites.

Expect the Mountaineers to prove why they are the No. 2 seed in the East with a monster blowout.
