WVU/OK STATE PREVIEW

The West Virginia men’s basketball team got back in the winning column on Saturday, with its comeback win over Kansas State. The Mountaineers started slow, and their deficit grew to as large as 17 points, before senior guard Sean McNeil led WVU to a 71-68 victory. McNeil tied his career high with 26 points. Fifth-year senior Gabe Osabuohien had the biggest impact for the Mountaineers. He led the team with a season-high 12 rebounds, took a handful of charges, and led WVU in plus-minus with a +18.
