The first Saturday-Monday was a Sunflower State split, WVU defeating Kansas State 85-66 in Morgantown before falling 84-80 in overtime at Kansas.
This time, it’s a Longhorn State double dip with Texas Tech already in the books following Saturday’s much-tougher-than-expected 83-74 double-OT win over the Red Raiders.
And now later tonight, West Virginia will take on the Texas team from Austin, which is a surprising 10-17 this year under second-year coach Shaka Smart.
The Longhorns are young - starting a pair of freshmen in guard Andrew Jones and forward Jarrett Allen, and a couple of sophomores in guard Kerwin Roach Jr.
