He was exhausted because he had to play so many minutes
That's why he was missing free throws late in the game.
The same reason that Maryland's shooting accuracy went downhill as the game progressed. Press Virginia just drained the energy out of the Terps.
Now, on to a giant-killers game against Kentucky. A victory over the Wildcats would be one for the ages.
I did feel for Maryland's top guy, out with the head injury. Visions of Da'Sean in the Final Four, and how I felt as Huggins bent over Butler, made me feel bad for the Terp. I never want any player hurt on either team. Just your best against our best all the way.
This Huggins team was more spirit and fight in it than any WVU team I've ever seen.
Other teams have shot better, but none has scrambled better than this one. A dozen guys go at it from opening tip to the final gun, no letup.
Now they have nearly a week to rest up for another Sweet 16! Sweet!
