Relentless WVU Stakes Claim as One of Nation's Best in Upset of No. 1 Kansas

The weather outside was frightful, and so was No. 11 West Virginia's suffocating defense in the 74-63 upset of No. 1 Kansas on Tuesday night in Morgantown.

According to Fran Fraschilla and Brent Musburger during ESPN's telecast of the game, blizzard-like conditions made it nearly impossible for Kansas' team bus to traverse the three miles from their hotel to WVU Coliseum. Even with a police escort, the Jayhawks were more than an hour behind schedule by the time they arrived.

No word yet on when their offensive execution will be showing up, though.

The Jayhawks entered the game ranked 26th in the nation in offensive turnover percentage.
