The Hoos did not enjoy their last trip to Madison Square Garden, so they look for redemption tonight against #14 West Virginia. The Mountaineers are a full-court press team, so the Hoos may miss London Perrantes. Still, the Hoos have plenty of ball-handlers and have the advantage in the half-court.
The Hoos head to NYC for the Jimmy V Classic, to face the West Virginia Mountaineers. The Hoos have won 6 in a row, while WVU sits at 7-0. The Mountaineers will be the best team the Hoos have faced this year. Of course, the reverse is true, as WVU hasn't played anybody in KenPom's top 50 (the Hoos lone loss came at #46 GW).
