West Virginia Preview

Saturday's opponents for the Jayhawks are the West Virginia Mountaineers, led by coach Bob Huggins. True to what we've come to expect from Huggins, West Virginia emphasizes defense above all else. Though the days of "Press Virginia" appear to be gone, this is still a team that plays physical (and will foul quite a bit), and will force a lot of turnovers, at a rate that ranks 9th in the country. That should make Jayhawk fans a little nervous, as high pressure defense forcing turnovers was responsible for a loss to Texas Tech, and near defeat against Iowa State.
