LAWRENCE, Kan. -- The recovery period allows precious little time.
Just one day of rest exists for Frank Mason, among those in the running for national player of the year, to bounce back from an illness that limited the senior point guard in a one-point win that No. 3 Kansas (22-3, 10-2 Big 12) claimed Saturday.
In addition, No. 13 West Virginia (20-5, 8-4) promises to offer a stiff test as one of just two conference rivals to defeat the Jayhawks, who will at least be home in Allen Fieldhouse for the Monday rematch.
Mason will attempt to return to form after logging a season-low 26 minutes before fouling out of an 80-79 win at Texas Tech.
