The West Virginia Mountaineers are back on the NCAA Tournament bubble after a major upset win last weekend over the BYU Cougars. However, the Mountaineers still have plenty of work ahead of them if they're hoping to return to the NCAA Tournament for the first time in three years.
To make it to the Big Dance, WVU will likely have to start by closing out the final week of the regular season with a pair of wins. That starts on Tuesday night, as West Virginia travels west for their final road trip of the season against Kansas State. Here's the information you need to follow along with Tuesday's game.
