WVU up to No. 6 in CBS Updated Top 25 poll
- Thread starter Soaring Eagle 74
- Start date
I don't know why anyone would doubt if WVU beats Oklahoma tomorrow that they would be a legit choice for #1. Win tomorrow and they will undoubtedly receive some first place votes. Look at the resumes WVU would have one of the best if not the best of anybody. Beating #1 and #2 consecutively while being a top 10 team should get you to #1. It definitely would in football. I think WVU gets it done tomorrow in a close game.
So WVU is among 350 also-rans. Would be bolder for you to declare what team is the best -- hang your hat.
I'm really liking my Mandalay Bay 80 to 1 bet made in November during the Las Vegas Invitational. NCAA Champs baby!
Yeh but most Mountaineer fans on here seem to biased against them so I'll take that with a pile of salt.[WVU]
It's simple for me: If WVU beats #2 Oklahoma IN NORMAN after being #1 Kansas, I'll be happier than a dog rolling in his own poop.
The rankings will take care of themselves. With 7 of the top 10 losing in a week, there obviously will be some major re-shuffling, and WVU, IF it beats the Sooners, will be a top 5 team.
But WVU has to play Oklahoma and Kansas again. So the Big 12 battle comes first.
Then March Madness. There's no Alabama in college basketball the way there is in college football. There's no John Wooden UCLA dynasty in college basketball. Take the top 15 teams, match them up any way you want, and on a given night, #15 could beat #1. Hell, #11 did.
So the national title will go to the team that has the most passion, drive and smarts and stays on an even keel, as Huggins says, throughout the 6 games that create a national champion.
For now, let's just turn on our TV sets at 4 p.m. Saturday to ESPN2 and hope Press Virginia unnerves and unravels Oklahoma the way it did Kansas. Wouldn't that be sometime for the ages?
