Well this shouldn't be a surprise wvu hasn't beaten a ranked team in almost 3 years and hasn't beaten a team on a neutral site or away that finished in the top 25 since 2012.
It has nothing to do with the upcoming season. Vegas odds makers set lines trying to get even money on both teams and the compulsive gamblers aren't going to bet on teams that fail to win big games like wvu has in recent memory.
Hey moron what does probaby mean? It would be good for wvu if Va tech wasn't ranked because wvu hasn't beaten a ranked team in almost 3 years in football. Dig it idiot?
What does oser mean? Hey Dave the dickhead if you want to see what a loser looks like find a mirror.
Spooky you of all people should not play the grammar card. Ducksflytogether has nothing on you.
Spooky and his go to mirror quote again. You can do better little fella. Give better effort on the 4th and don't half *** it.
Gamblers are going to bet for one reason or another. Vegas just tries to break even with it's money. It has nothing to do with who beat who when where what or why. The odds are now 5 1/2 that you start a new troll thread or post a troll response.
I disagree and get along with other posters.
I just keep reminding myself that I'm always right and debating with inferior intellect is fruitless.
When last seen, the Gobble-Gobbles were beating Arkansas in a bowl (after losing the ACC title game by 7 to the eventual national champion) while West Virginia was getting thumped by a Miami team that lost to VPI by 21.
The fact that the line is only 4 shows that serious bettors dig deeper than comparing scores.

Absolutely. The perfect line draws equal amounts of money on either team. That way Vegas wins no matter how the game turns out. That's why the line will keep moving till gameday to entice either WVU or Virginia Tech gambling supporters.
Im not sure why people have a hard time understanding how spreads work. Its what gets equal bets on both teams. It has nothing to do with who they actually think will win.
When I think of the king of fools I have to omit your name. I wouldn't want the same person winning that title every year.
I didn't play it fool i just threw back in Your face. Another weak response from you but were all accustomed to that by now.
That's the thing, I can get by if I 1/4 *** it. You struggle mightily if you only give 1/2. It's completely unacceptable. Take a long look at that mug of yours in the mirror and get back on track lil fella.
Are there actually people betting games now without knowing one thing about these teams post summer camp? No wonder the bookie business is lucrative.
Hey sugar retard my point hasn't changed. You think they will be happy with their 6 points if QB goes down and two lineman are ineligible for opener?
I always get a kick out of the ones that try to convince others how smart they are. This site has more of those then CMU haha! At least there I new everyone was smart. I believe you are smart and would love to take you to dinner at my country club but you are way to edgy sweetheart. Loosen up and quit trying to intellectually show off. Try being sweet and real. Is dinner out of the question?
