LAWRENCE, Kan. — West Virginia has gone from the frying pan to the fire.
A week after upsetting then-No. 2 Ohio State, the No. 16 Mountaineers (11-1) will try to make it back-to-back wins over teams in the top-3 by knocking off No. 3 Kansas (10-2).
There is a caveat when it comes to beating the Jayhawks at storied Phog Allen Fieldhouse — the Mountaineers have never actually done it.
There have been painfully close calls.
The Mountaineers squandered an 18-point lead before falling in overtime in 2015. Two years later, it was a 14-point advantage that went by the wayside before another Kansas overtime win.
