Mountaineers Jump to No. 19 in Both Polls

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. - Following last night's 16-point, second-half comeback victory over Missouri, West Virginia jumped four spots in this week's Associated Press Top 25 poll to No. 19.

The Mountaineers advanced one spot in this week's USA Today coaches' poll to No. 19 as well.

It's the 59^th consecutive week for West Virginia in the coaches' poll and the 39^th straight week in the AP poll dating back to the 2015 season.

West Virginia (6-1) is back in action this Thursday night at the WVU Coliseum against New Jersey Tech. The game will tip off at 7 p.m. and will be televised locally on AT&T SportsNet.

Meanwhile, Mountaineer fans can catch West Virginia coach Bob Huggins on tonight's Bob Huggins Show, live from Kegler's Sports Bar and Lounge at 7 p.m.

The show is carried on Mountaineer Sports Network from IMG affiliates across the Mountain State, online through WVUsports.com and via the popular mobile app TuneIn.

The entire two-hour show will be archived and made available online through SoundCloud and popular podcasting services iTunes and Stitcher.
