Players to Watch:

Darryn Peterson (KU): We could spend time talking about another player, but with all due respect to the rest of the roster, it would be a waste of time. This team's success hinges on the play of Peterson, who is a lock to be a top-two pick in the NBA Draft.

Brenen Lorient (WVU): The senior forward looked rusty in his return to the floor after missing the Big 12 opener against Iowa State. Against Cincinnati, he had minimal impact on the game, finishing with just two points and three rebounds. In that game against Ohio State earlier in the year, he was active on both ends and went for 18 points, seven rebounds, four assists, and four blocks. If they get similar production out of him in this one, they'll be in a position to win.
