PREDICTIONS: Iowa State at West Virginia

This predictor has been nearly dead on for the last two games (didn't check on it on the previous games). It's saying ISU will win by 12.

I think most of those predictions look like too many points to me. Based on how well the ISU D has played recently, combined with WVU’s knack for turning the ball over, I’m taking this under in this one. This feels a lot like the TTU game to me, but WVU is better and will put up a few more points.

How does a defense figure out a jump ball passing attack? Not being sarcastic or anything, just curious. I know if the corners are undersized and can't man up the receivers you can play your safeties deep and roll coverages to one side or the other, but if you do that aren't you leaving the entire middle of the field wide open?
I'll take ISU 30 WVU 20. Underrated road win. Morgantown is a tough road trip.
If you go back and watch these passes and their placement, it's a lot less of a "50-50" ball because Kempt is putting it in a place where the WR has a substantially higher chance of getting the ball.

Clones by 2 TDs. Up to #11. We justifiably complain that our top 10 team isn't getting enough respect.
Then we wreck Okie State's dreams again, because we are Iowa State, and that's what we do.

That's true, too. He's been pretty good about placing the ball so that the only guy who has a chance to make a play on it is the receiver.
ISU 35
WVU 14
OSU literally handed WVU 2 TD's, maybe 3, and OSU still won by 11 points within Morgantown. This game shouldn't be close. WVU's pass/rush defense is statistically worse than Kansas. Score is 21-7 ISU by halftime, go up 2 TD and WVU gets a TD late against the scrubs.

I really enjoy Jay's insights on the day after write ups, but I really want to know what made him pick a 45-20 game.
Hopefully he knows something that others don't!
31-27 ISU.
