WVU Takes on No. 2 OU on Saturday

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – West Virginia is in the midst of perhaps the toughest stretch of basketball games in school history.

On Tuesday night in Morgantown, the Mountaineers were able to get past No. 1-ranked Kansas, 74-63, on the strength of 26 points from senior guard Jaysean Paige coming off the bench.

Now this Saturday, West Virginia get its first look at college basketball’s second-ranked team – the Oklahoma Sooners.

OU is now 14-1, 3-1 following Wednesday’s Bedlam win over Oklahoma State in Stillwater. The Sooners got 26 points and four assists from senior guard Buddy Hield.
