February 9, 20196 yr So, following the usual script of an impressive and rather unexpectedly easy victory over the Big XII's at-the-time best team, the question now is... how low can you go? Loss at Huggiesville. Edited February 9, 20196 yr by phdhorn

Loss at Huggiesville. I would normally be there with you but in all honesty I kind of expect us to at least cover the spread if not win handily. I won't be putting any money on that myself, but I have been betting against WVU this year because they are just bad. Bottom line, if we play the way we've been playing as of late, where we've been slowly but surely improving in key areas, then we will beat them today without much drama at the end. I mean when was the last time you saw West Virginia ranked 348th in the nation in steal%? ranked 106 coming out of a major conference. that's bad bad. Edited February 9, 20196 yr by Goo Punch
February 9, 20196 yr Let’s see. We’re on the road in conference, so that means a loss. But WVU is really ordinary this season, so maybe not. Then again, we’ve lost to some other ordinary teams, even at our place. I wouldn’t wager much either way.
February 9, 20196 yr Any W at this point in the season is big, but a road win over Huggy Bear would be especially sweet.

February 10, 20196 yr Roach and Hayes on the bench early with 2 fouls each. Someone else gonna have to step up.
February 10, 20196 yr I'm a little impressed that WVU draws this many people to watch a losing team when it's like 20 degrees out.
February 10, 20196 yr My happiest day will be when I no longer have to watch DO miss every single two footer.

February 10, 20196 yr Hopefully, Hamm will see some early action. This has all the makings of a 50-foul game of attrition, so we'll need as many bodies to spread the fouls out as possible.

February 10, 20196 yr Shaka, that's called a "back door cut." Google that when you get home. It's a basketball play.
February 10, 20196 yr Author You're not going to get playing time if you can't set a proper screen, Hamm.
February 10, 20196 yr I've seen more moving screens called on us the last 2 games than i have all rest of the year. Just sloppy.

Players look like they're thinking and stiff, especially on defense. I don't know what's up with the moving screens but that's a regular staple in today's basketball.
