GAME THREAD West Virginia basketball at Kansas

[Keenan Cummings]

Game will tip-off at 4 p.m. Saturday and will be televised by ESPN.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Not looking good.

 

[locustwv]

I think we can beat Kansas but it will take a perfect game. Minimal turnovers, no stupid technicals, and shoot well from the line.

 

[xWVU2010x]

KU is good for one wtf game per year at home, and it already happened vs TCU. We’re not going in there and winning, much more realistic chance at ISU on Monday.

 

[Cuyahoga Falls Eers_rivals]

WVU needs to show up fearless but not reckless. Winning AT Kansas is the Holy Grail of Big 12 teams! Why not? We're not behind yet. Put it to Dorothy and Toto, too.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Last place Oklahoma just spanked ISU 61-50.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Our turnovers lead to KU points. Their turnovers leads to WVU turnovers.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Gonna be a 20+ turnover game.

 

[locustwv]

At least we are still in this game.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Gonna be a 20+ turnover game.

WVU has 10 and Kansas has 11 It's already combined 21.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Our turnovers lead to KU points. Their turnovers leads to WVU turnovers.

WVU leads in turnover points.

Kansas killing WVU in paint.

 

[WVUALLEN]

14 turnovers a piece KU on another 7-0 run with favorable whistle in 2nd half. Their biggest lead of the game at 50-44.

 

[locustwv]

Crazy how a technical always sparks Kansas and always destroys us.

WVU leads in turnover points.

Kansas killing WVU in paint.

For about the 100th consecutive game, we can’t stop the opponent from driving the ball into the paint whenever it wants.

 

[WVUALLEN]

The empty possessions is what cause us the games.

 

[Rootmaster]

Mitchell has no court awareness. Johnson is a turnover machine. Bell can jump 3/4 of an inch on a good day. And then there's the rest of the gang...

 

[xWVU2010x]

Same old stale BS

 

[MountaineerWV]

I'm SHOCKED!!!!!!!! Cannot believe we couldn't have good offensive possessions with any consistency.

 

[xWVU2010x]

I'm SHOCKED!!!!!!!! Cannot believe we couldn't have good offensive possessions with any consistency.

Can’t believe we lost a tight one in Lawrence, unheard of!

 

[spreadoption_rivals80969]

Did anyone expect anything except what we got on that last possession: a total clusterf*ck? Predictable.

 

[locustwv]

Worst last possession of a game I’ve ever seen. Unbelievable!!!!

 

[Rootmaster]

Shitttty team....consistently. clean house.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Worst last possession of a game I’ve ever seen. Unbelievable!!!!

It's Larry Harrison's fault.

 

[muthed]

A 2 point loss to Kansas AT KANSAS. CFE puts this one in the win column.

The worst part is Toussaint passing up a look from 3

It will probably help our NET tbh as margin of victory under 10 points is a factor. I think our season comes down to KSU

Worst I’ve see by any college team since our possession in a Sweet 16 game against (I think) Villanova.

That game wasn’t close. We had a 8-10 point lead with like 10 mins left and it quickly evaporated and went double digits the other way when foul trouble caught up to us. I think you mean the Gonzaga game, that was one we should have had.

Toussaint loves to dribble more than pass or shoot.

The Gonzaga game was on the officiating for taking a half hour break to let them rest up for the final push. The press had them on the ropes.

 

[jlaudiomaster]

Hell of a try. Not saying officiating robbed us at all but that’s a W on a neutral court. If they play like that here on out, we will snatch a few wins in the big 12 tournament that might put us in the NCAA. The biggest IF is the consistency with this team though.

That's a W if Joe doesn't dribble off the last 24 seconds without a shot.

Absolutely. Shouldn't see the court. Plays completely out of control. Street ball stuff.

He wouldn't have been able to dribble the game away if he shot the ball. #1 mistake was Matthews giving him the ball.
