No. 25 Texas will look to build upon Wednesday’s dramatic victory when it takes on West Virginia on Saturday evening.
On Wednesday, the Longhorns relied on heroics from Max Abmas to down Cincinnati; Abmas sunk a pull-up jumper in the game’s final seconds for the eventual game-winning basket.
The former Oral Roberts standout — and March Madness hero — is flourishing in his first year with Texas. He leads the Longhorns in averaging 17.1 points and 4.5 assists per game while shooting 40 percent from beyond the arc.
But the most encouraging sign for Texas in Wednesday’s win was the play of forward Dylan Disu. Fully recovered from a long-term foot injury, Disu tallied a career-high 33 points in 34 minutes against Cincinnati.
West Virginia is in the throes of a difficult season, sitting at 5-10 and carrying a three-game losing streak into Saturday. The Mountaineers have opened up Big 12 play with a pair of lopsided losses.
As a bright spot, two-time transfer Raequan Battle received eligibility in December and has hit the ground running, averaging 21.4 points per game across his first five contests. But West Virginia is just 1-4 in that stretch.
