Just 11 days ago, West Virginia bodied backsliding BYU for a 79-71 win, helping secure a higher Big 12 tournament seed than the Cougars. “I want to start out by giving Coach (Kevin) Young and his team a lot of credit,” West Virginia head coach Ross Hodge said following Wednesday’s loss. The Cougars were carried by a dominant defensive effort, as West Virginia managed just 48 total points at an average of 0.8 points per possession.
