Three Guys Before The Game – Texas Three Step (Episode 271)

The Mountaineer basketball team is about to begin its version of the Texas three-step with three games over six days starting at the University of Texas on Saturday. 

The Mountaineers, who have been off since last Saturday’s double-overtime loss to Oklahoma, will try to avenge a last-second 72-70 loss to No. 12 Texas in Morgantown last month.

WVU will continue the Texas swing with games at TCU on Tuesday and a meeting with No. 2 Baylor next Thursday. 

On this episode, the “Guys” analyze the matchup with Texas and explain the key analytic WVU must avoid. 

Listener questions and the opening of a gift box rounds out the show.

The crew returns Monday with a review of the Texas game and a preview of the TCU matchup. 

Three Guys Before The Game is brought to you by Mardis Gras Casino and Resort, Wheeling Island Hotel-Casino-Racetrack and Burdette Camping Center. Look super cool by wearing Three Guys merchandise.
