What you need to know about Oklahoma

Oklahoma enters this game with some momentum following its overtime win over rival Oklahoma State last Saturday. The Sooners were on a four-game losing skid, but two of those losses came by a combined four points against Kansas and Texas. They led by as many as 14 points in the second half against the Cowboys on Saturday, but they were able to recover from the blown lead in overtime. 

Senior forward Tanner Groves, who is the team's leading scorer, had 14 points in the win. Senior guards Umoja Gibson and Jordan Goldwire are both averaging double figures as well, while Elijah Harkless (10.0 ppg) is out for the remainder of the season with an undisclosed injury. The Sooners are 10-5 in their last 15 home games. 

What you need to know about West Virginia

West Virginia will be trying to snap a six-game losing skid on Tuesday night. The Mountaineers are coming off consecutive heartbreaking losses, as they lost at Iowa State by three points last Wednesday and then came up one point short against then-No. 20 Texas on Saturday. Their last win came in a 79-63 final against Iowa State on Feb. 8. 

Senior guard Taz Sherman is one of the top scorers in college basketball, averaging 18.3 points per game. He was held to 11 points in the first meeting with the Sooners, so he will have revenge on his mind. West Virginia has only covered the spread four times in its last 14 games.
