WVSPORTS.COM WVU drops season opener to Buffalo in overtime 99-94
- Thread starter Keenan Cummings
- Start date
1. Once beetle went down we were done.
2 we have no go to player other than beetle
3 sags is worried about a perimeter game and he forgot what his strength is- the post
4 Chase may be a nice kid but he can’t defend at this level. Why did Huggs leave him on their best player. It’s shocking that he played so much.
5. We got out hustled, out toughed.
6. the lack of experienced pg is huge problem
7. Ahmad seems to disappear in close games. It’s like it’s just never clicked for him. And he’s running out of time
8. We should have pounded it inside against that team.
9. experienced guard play is what makes or breaks college teams.
10. Would’ve liked to see emmit Matthews or Trey doomes try to defend. Couldn’t do worse than what we had out there.
11 Mccabe needs another year in the weight room. He’s not ready yet.
12. Haley doesn’t seem to be what I heard. He looks slow and needs conditioning.
Huggs has his work cut out for him. I hope he can work some magic. Cause right now this isn’t a top 25 team.

He claimed Dax was easily replaced. Yeah right. Dax would’ve shut their guard down and would’ve made plays down the stretch. We had no one who wanted the ball. 14 seconds left and the shot we get is a 24 foot air ball
This team is very underwhelming. It doesn't have a player who can make a difference and take it to a high level, it can't play a style that will bother opponents, just nothing special at all.

People bitched about Dax disappointing and disappearing all season. JC is the big loss but he played bad in first game last year too. The young guards need reps, minutes to grow and get confidence. Harler needs minutes cut and replaced in starting lineup. Beetle, Knapper must start together. Horton should replace Harler.
We need Culver to get his head out of his ***. We got talent and bodies but have no chemistry. We must jell.
We are early November flat. We always are. December will be different. We will knock the rust off. Knapper will break out and improve. He’s rusty from health issues, injuries. Next month he will improve a lot. I think McCabe will do the same. His confidence is lost. He needs reps and time. He will get better.

Is Buffalo rated in pre-season polls? They darn well should be ranked in the Top Ten after whupping the Mountaineers. Warez
