Sports Take: MBB Big 12 Power Rankings

By Ben Everett | Sports Writer

Every team in the Big 12 has played four games heading into the weekend, so let’s take a look at where each team stands as the conference race begins to sort itself out.

1. West Virginia (15-1, 4-0)

The Mountaineers escaped with a home win over Baylor despite a night of poor shooting from arguably their best player, Jevon Carter. With forward Esa Ahmad becoming eligible to play this weekend, WVU can take firm grasp of No. 1 in the conference with a win in Lubbock.

2. Oklahoma (13-2, 3-1)

Freshman sensation Trae Young still leads the nation in points per game and assists per game, and the OU offense will need him to continue his impressive play if they want a shot at the Big 12 title.
