The West Virginia Mountaineers (10-6, 0-4) are on the highway to tackle the Oklahoma Sooners (10-6, 1-3) Saturday at midday with the sport broadcasting on ESPN2. 

Schuyler Callihan: Oklahoma 73, West Virginia 67

In some unspecified time in the future, this factor goes to show for West Virginia. When that shall be I’m not sure of. I do consider, although, that it will not occur this afternoon in Norman. The Mountaineers have misplaced every of their final 4 journeys to Lloyd Noble Middle and are 2-8 there all-time. 

The Groves brothers, Tanner and Jacob, may very well be an enormous drawback contained in the paint for West Virginia, notably when Jimmy Bell Jr. is on the bench taking a breather. WVU’s bigs haven’t performed effectively constantly and that’s an space of concern for this matchup.

Free throws and three-point capturing have not been all that sort to the Mountaineers for the reason that begin of league play and I see it costing them as soon as once more. Oklahoma edges one out and drops to WVU to 0-5 within the Huge 12.

Christopher Corridor: Oklahoma 64 West Virgina 60

West Virginia releasing affiliate head coach Larry Harrison on Thursday is one more distraction for the Mountaineers, along with beginning 0-4 in convention play. 

Nevada switch Grant Sherfield leads the workforce in scoring, averaging 17.4 ppg behind a team-high 45.5% from three-point vary, though he is 5-26 (19.2%) in league play. 

Sooners ahead Tanner Groves went for 21 factors and 6 rebounds in Morgantown final season earlier than recording a double double within the return recreation at Norman with 17 factors and 10 rebounds. 

West Virginia has misplaced six straight to the Sooners. The Mountaineers come into the sport capturing 37.9% from the sphere within the first 4 convention video games. 

I do not see the Mountaineers ending the four-game skid following the firing of Harrison and fairly frankly do not know what to anticipate from this group in the intervening time regardless of them battling to the tip towards Baylor on Saturday. Sooners maintain for a 64-60 victory.
