West Virginia defeated Kansas 74-63. The Mountaineers were fueled by Jaysean Paige, who came off the bench and poured in 26 points. Forward Devin Williams also provided a double-double with 17 points and 12 rebounds. (RELATED: Kansas Tops Oklahoma In One Of The Best Basketball Games You’ll Ever See)

The Jayhawks were no match for the high intensity home crowd for West Virginia, who controlled the game throughout.
