WVU football probably won't be viewed as a betting favorite many more times this season.
The Mountaineers haven't been in that position since a Week 2 trip to Ohio, which they ended up losing. They won the Pitt game despite entering as an underdog by more than a touchdown, and have entered the past five games as an underdog of at least more than a touchdown each time – and they haven't won a single one of those.
The trend of entering as an underdog by more than one score continues this week, as the Mountaineers will likely enter their second straight game as an underdog by more than two touchdowns.
