We like the West Virginia Mountaineers to defeat the Baylor Bears on Saturday at 4:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

WVU are coming off back to back wins. They should be highly motivated to grab their sixth and bowl clinching win.

The Mountaineers have won six straight home games against the Baylor Bears.

Overall, West Virginia have won six of the L8 meetings.

Baylor are also coming off three wins in a row. But, they are just 1-3 on the road this season.

The Bears have also allowed an average of 32.3 points per game over the L3 games, even while winning.

WVU's defense should hold up for the most part. We're going with the slight home dog.
