College Hoops Picks ATS, Feb. 18: Notre Dame Irish at West Virginia Mountaineers
Notre Dame Fighting Irish (5-7, 14-10) at West Virginia Mountaineers (6-6, 17-8)
Wednesday, Feb. 18—7:00 PM EST on The Big East Network Local
Preview
The Irish (5-7, 14-10) have just won back-to-back games for the first time since the beginning of January. In fact, after their Jan. 10 takedown of Seton Hall, the Irish lost seven in a row. But they came back in a big way and took down Louisville, 90-57.
West Virginia (6-6, 17-8) put an end to Villanova's streak when they beat them 93-72 on Friday. They've been trading wins and losses for a little while, but all of their Big East losses this season have come from ranked opponents.
This should be a great game between two teams trying to fall on the right side of the bubble. Look for Harangody to continue to dominate for the Irish down low (in conference play, he is averaging 27.25 PPG and 14.25 RPG) as he looks for his 19th double-double of the season.
