MORGANTOWN, W.Va. - It's another two-day turnaround for West Virginia and TCU when the two meet tonight at the WVU Coliseum in a 9 p.m. game that will be televised nationally on ESPN2.
 
While West Virginia is coming off a disappointing, 88-85 loss to eighth-place Oklahoma State on Saturday, the Horned Frogs are riding high following their big, 87-71 victory over Texas in Fort Worth the same day.
 
TCU shot 54.8 percent from the floor and got 25 points on 11-of-19 shooting from Vlad Brodziansky and 18 points from forward Kouat Noi in the win over the Longhorns.
 
Brodziansky (15.6 ppg.) is one of four TCU regulars averaging double figures heading into tonight's game. The others are guard Kenrich Williams (13.7 ppg.), guard Desmond Bane (12.0 ppg.) and Noi (10.3 ppg.)
 
Earlier this year in Fort Worth, guard Alex Robinson scored 17 points and handed out nine assists in an 82-73 victory over West Virginia. After trailing early, the Horned Frogs took control of the game in the second half by cashing in at the free throw line where they outscored West Virginia, 23-16, at the charity stripe.
 
TCU also had a 46-40 edge on the glass while making nine 3s.
 
Robinson has been the most effective TCU player against West Virginia, scoring 45 points in three career games while handing out 14 assists, grabbing 13 rebounds and making four steals.
 
Brodziansky's six-game totals against the Mountaineers include 60 points, 29 rebounds and 12 blocks.
 
TCU's victory over Texas on Saturday snapped a two-game losing streak (Texas Tech and Kansas) and boosted the Horned Frogs' record to 17-8.
 
TCU is in great shape RPI-wise this week at No. 24 and is projected as an eight seed in the latest Joe Lunardi Bracketology updated earlier today.
 
West Virginia (18-7, 7-5) is also in pretty good shape with an RPI of 34 and a projected five seed in Lunardi's most recent bracket, but the Mountaineers let one get away from them on Saturday when Oklahoma State came back from six points down with three minutes remaining to clip WVU at the end.

"They made shots," West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said. "What we didn't do was get rebounds when we needed to get rebounds. There were a bunch of run-stoppers."
 
The Cowboys also benefitted at the free throw line where they made 30 out of 36 attempts compared to West Virginia's 24 of 28. West Virginia's opponents have taken more free throws than the Mountaineers in all five Big 12 losses this year, the widest disparities coming at TCU (minus-11) and at Texas Tech (minus-9).

"It's hard to guard them at the foul line," Huggins said.
 
On Saturday, Oklahoma State's advantage included an 18 to six edge in the first half.
 
Clearly, West Virginia is going to have to figure out a way to foul less and keep its better players on the floor with six important regular season games remaining, including tonight's.
 
Texas Tech is now in the driver's seat in the league with a 9-3 conference record, one game ahead Kansas in the standings.
 
West Virginia is alone in third place at 7-5, followed by Kansas State and Oklahoma at 6-6. TCU is in a four-team logjam in sixth place at 5-7 with Baylor, Oklahoma State and Texas.
 
Iowa State is at the bottom at 4-8 but has won two out of its last four games.
 
TCU, which defeated West Virginia last month for the first time since the two joined the Big 12 in 2012, is seeking a season-sweep over the Mountaineers.
 
Rich Hollenberg and Chris Spatola will handle the call for ESPN2. The Mountaineer Sports Network from IMG's radio coverage begins at 8 p.m. on affiliates throughout West Virginia and online via WVUsports.com and the mobile app TuneIn.
