The Mountaineers are hoping to keep getting big-time contributions from Teddy Allen off the bench. He has led the Mountaineers in scoring the past three games. If Teddy Buckets can get hot again, look for the Mountaineers to roll to another victory.
The Bears are led by Manu Lecomte. He is averaging 16.8 points per game and has firmly established himself as the second best Manu is Texas basketball history.
The Mountaineers control the game, but never are completely blow out the Baylor Bears. Big games from Teddy Buckets and Jevon Carter combined with the defense in the paint from Sagaba Konate lead the Mountaineers to a relatively easy win.
