MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- During a season filled with erratic swings, No. 21 West Virginia reached its lowest point on Jan. 31, the night of a 93-77 loss at Iowa State.
The Big 12 Conference's last-place Cyclones played shorthanded without point guard Nick Weiler-Babb yet outhustled and overwhelmed West Virginia by shooting 62 percent.
Saturday brings a chance for the Mountaineers (20-8, 9-6 Big 12) to avenge that blowout, and this time Iowa State (13-14, 4-11) will be even more undermanned.
Weiler-Babb finally has been shut down for the season with knee and back injuries, and forward Solomon Young (meniscus surgery) also is finished.
