Life in the Big 12 is going to be even more difficult now that there are 20 league games instead of 18. Newcomers Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, and Utah further increase the depth of what is already considered to be the best basketball league in the country.

WVU will also play a pretty competitive non-conference schedule as well. They will open the season with Robert Morris on November 4th which will be followed by key games against Pitt, Gonzaga, and Georgetown. As part of the Battle 4 Atlantis, the Mountaineers will also see two of the following: Indiana, Louisville, Arizona, Davidson, Oklahoma, or Providence.

“We made sure we challenged ourselves right away in our first year here," DeVries said with a laugh. "But no, it’s a good schedule. It’s a good non-conference schedule and we know what the league schedule is going up to 20 games. We understand that in order to be successful, we’re going to have to be really good in certain areas and those will be the things we continue to focus on.”
