It’s March 2026, and if you’re a West Virginia fan, you’re currently glued to the NET rankings. With the Big 12 being the toughest gauntlet in college hoops this year, every game feels like a play-in game.

The Bubble Watch Following the recent battles against Kansas and the upcoming clash with UCF, the Mountaineers are officially in the "Bubble" conversation. Coach Ross Hodge has this team playing with a grit that reminds us of the "Press Virginia" days. Whether we're headed to Dayton for the First Four or snagging a solid 10-seed, the energy in WV is electric.

Gear Up for the Big Dance Nothing says "I believed all along" like fresh tournament gear.
