Big 12 Conference Tournament Matchups + Schedule

March Madness is officially here!

The long, miserable regular season for the West Virginia Mountaineers has come to an end finishing with a 9-22 (4-14) record. Based off of winning percentage (.290), that's the worst season WVU has had since 2001-02 (.286).

Now they look to shock the world with a magical run in Kansas City to backdoor their way into the NCAA Tournament. Unfortunately, most expect their stay to be a short one.
