With both WV apps coming opening-week victories off the school football season reaches its second complete week. The WVU Mountaineers will travel west to accept the Missouri Tigers, that are currently coming off a defeat that is surprising.
Marshall will be facing a stiff test in the Boise State Broncos. Boise knocked off Florida State in its first match of this year, last week after monitoring by a fantastic margin.
Following an action-packed Saturday, the NFL season kicks off at total on Sunday, Sept. 8. As its 100th season is entered by the NFL twenty-six teams take the field.
Besides there being plenty of soccer that is amazing the WV sports gambling market should see a major growth in activity. While college football is king at the Mountain State, the NFL is the top dog in terms of amounts that are gambling.
Not only do people from the state have a couple of retail WV sportsbooks to make the most of on game days, but there are several sports gambling apps out there.
The two DraftKings Sportsbook and FanDuel Sportsbook launched in WV, getting the first two online platforms, last week. Gamblers in the country have two mobile alternatives right in their cell phones.
West Virginia Lottery Director John Myers commented by email to PlayWV.com regarding how the sportsbooks fared throughout the weekend announced that the return of school football and online sports betting.
“The total handle was up with the start of the football season, as estimated, and we expect the mobile app play to grow in future weeks.”
According to the Lottery, the”unaudited” numbers show the Mountain State may get $64,925.64 in taxation from retail sports betting and $2,503.68 in tax from mobile program betting through Saturday.
This creates a entire taxation for the week of 67,429.32. We know the tax is 10 percent of earnings.
We understand 20,000 bets were approved by DraftKings while we are going to have to wait for the numbers to see the overall handle. It might look West Virginia bettors came out as winners.
Let’s have a look at all the local soccer taking place this weekend and the way bettors should approach the slate of games.
WVU vs. Missouri
Both faculty teams at WV are hoping their opening week victory can carry over into this weekend. This is going to be a challenging job for Marshall and WVU , though.
Their game was escaped by the Mountaineers with a win thanks to quarterback Austin Kendall plus a good performance . WVU was able to come back from a halftime deficit to beat James Madison 20-13 from Morgantown.
Kendall threw two second-half touchdown passes en route for his first win as a Mountaineer while the offense struggled most of the day.
This week, unfortunately, things don’t get any easier. WVU will travel for a minute start on Saturday to Missouri.
Despite losing to Wyoming at Week 1, the Tigers are a considerably more difficult opponent than the FCS team it faced. Missouri is a significant favorite to overcome WVU.
Based on the Football Power Index of ESPN, the spread is spot on to your match. It states that the Mountaineers just have a 19% chance of winning this matchup.
When the Mountaineers are going to keep it shut, they will need a lot better showing in the device that is offensive. Scoring 20 points is not going to cut it against Missouri or some of the Big 12 Conference.
The working game of WVU may help the cause. The group rushed for 34 yards on 24 attempts.
Regardless of winning the game, JMU outplayed WVU for big parts of the introductory match. This will not bode well for the first actual test of the season, on the street for coach Neal Brown and his youthful team.
It would be astonishing if WVU wins, or even cover the spread this week.
Marshall vs. Boise State
The Thundering Herd have a similar situation in their Week 2 game. After a simpler week against an FCS group, Marshall will soon be on the road facing a good competition in Boise State Friday night.
Unlike WVU, Marshall was impressive in its opener. Even though it was confronting a less talented side in the Virginia Military Institute, Marshall led for the whole period of the game and won comfortably 56-17.
The Thundering Herd were headed by quarterback Isaiah Green and his four touchdown passes. They recorded an 280 rushing yards.
While this was a good sign, it is unlikely that the crime will get this much success against a very good Boise State team. The Broncos enter this match on a high note following overcoming an 18-point deficit in carrying down Florida State.
The win catapulted Boise to the AP and Coaches Poll as the 24th ranked college football team in the nation.
It will be rather hard to leave a triumph Despite the fact that Marshall must be competitive in this sport. Boise is a solid team all about and are going to have major home-field edge beneath the Friday night lighting.
It may be unlikely for the Herd to triumph, but they can certainly cover the spread by remaining within 10 points. The points and Marshall could be a great bet as they did a week ago if the offense can find a groove.
The opening week of the NFL season is really an enjoyable time. The fan base of everyone is excited.
This year is no different for a number of those organizations local to the WV region. Even though the Pittsburgh Steelers have their eyes around the Super Bowl, the Cleveland Browns are stealing each of the headlines this summer.
Pittsburgh opens its season as underdogs against a familiar foe at Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. The defending Super Bowl champs are looking to put together another run using their ageless quarterback.
The Browns, on the other hand, start the year as favorites against the Tennessee Titans. A lot of roster changes have folks in Cleveland enthusiastic about the team’s potential resurgence in 2019.
Other sides include Cincinnati Bengals and the Washington Redskins. Despite the fact that expectations are a little lower in these towns, you never really know what could happen over the span of an NFL season.
The Redskins are underdogs from the NFC East rival Philadelphia Eagles. Carson Wentz yields since the Eagles’ signal-caller in his effort to direct back Philly .
Cincinnati is in the Seattle Seahawks currently receiving a bunch of points at a similar situation. Russell Wilson and coach Pete Carroll are a group.
According to DraftKings, here would be the following odds for all of the Native NFL action:
Cleveland Browns vs. Tennessee Titans
Pittsburgh Steelers vs. New England Patriots
Washington Redskins vs. Philadelphia Eagles
Cincinnati Bengals vs. Seattle Seahawks
