3 Guys Before The Game – Texas Tech & Oklahoma State Preview (Episode 443)

The margin of error for the West Virginia basketball team is very thin.  (Really, really thin!)

The Mountaineers must win at least three of their final five games to have a legitimate chance for an invite to the NCAA tournament.

The first two obstacles are Texas Tech and Oklahoma State.  WVU hosts the Red Raiders on Saturday and then entertains the Cowboys on Monday night.

They may not be “must-win”, but losses in either game will be a massive blow for WVU’s NCAA chances.

In this episode, Brad Howe and Tony Caridi preview the games and provide the key analytics for Mountaineer success.

Listener questions and comments complete the episode.
