GAME THREAD West Virginia vs BYU men's basketball

[Vernon]

WVU (17-11, 8-9) will travel to BYU (20-8, 10-6) on Saturday. The tip is set for 10:00 PM ET and the game will be on ESPN 2.

 

[locustwv]

10:00 tip sucks but it’s a Saturday so I’ll try and stay up!!

 

[WVUALLEN]

We always get the crappiest time. But at least it's not on ESPN PLUS.

[WVUBRU]

The start time makes sense for Provo. Has nothing to do with screwing over WVU. Only thing matters is playing well and hopefully winning. But BYU have been playing very well this month

Start time makes no sense for me though!!!

 

[WVUBRU]

Start time makes no sense for me though!!!

I understand. Me neither. I will be asleep

 

[WVUALLEN]

Just 3 games left. I will be happy with a split on this road trip and win at home over UCF. Finishing the Season 19-12 (10-10).

I agree. I do think we can win all 3. Tonights will be the toughest.

 

[WVUALLEN]

not a smart shot Yesufu.

 

[WVUALLEN]

If they kill us inside we are toast.

 

[locustwv]

To many fouls!!!

 

[WVUALLEN]

Right now it's a recipe for a blowout loss. WVU one shot and then give up easy shot in the paint.

 

[WVUALLEN]

In the bonus at 11:28 game over if you don't make baskets.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Not the refs fault that we are hacking.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Work it with the defense. Should have been a foul call on the dunk.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Not the refs fault that we are hacking.

Nope. They are good calls.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Imagine that......a team face guarding our best player.

 

[WVUALLEN]

First team to 20 wins

 

[MountaineerWV]

We have a whopping 8 points in first 13 minutes........is Neal Brown on our basketball coaching staff now?

 

[WVUALLEN]

You got to finish that drive Powell.

 

[WVUALLEN]

BYU only has 13. So Brown is not coaching defense.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Stupid foul Harris.

 

[locustwv]

We are playing ok, keep the defense up!!!

 

[WVUALLEN]

We are playing ok, keep the defense up!!!

Need to finish this half without collapsing like we tend to do.

 

[WVUALLEN]

That Saundera is a cry baby.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Three fouls on Small and no Whistle.

 

[WVUALLEN]

There's the collapse.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Do they even call 3 seconds anymore? I don't think I've seen that called all year in any game.

 

[locustwv]

There's the collapse.

Yep terrible end to the half!!!

 

[WVUALLEN]

If WVU can't make their 3 point shots they can't win. Right now we're 2 of 13.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Yep terrible end to the half!!!

10-0 run for BYU.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Run continues 15-0

 

[WVUALLEN]

Why does Okani throw the ball in. Not smart.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Bad call ref. I guess crying works.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Finally called a foul on BYU when Small has the Ball.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Saunders lowers his shoulder and bull drives into Small chest. He missed the shot thank goodness.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Stupid foul Harris.

 

[WVUALLEN]

This game is over except final score.

 

[WVUALLEN]

BYU enjoying moving screens and pushes. Andre knocked down with a shoulder and no call.
