YEAH. OTHERWISE, IT'S RUNNING THE TOUGHEST GAUNTLET IN COLLEGE BASKETBALL, THE BIG 12. EVERY GAME WILL BE WORTH WATCHING!
We are gonna have to play smothering defense and get huge games from Taz and McNeil to compete in the upcoming Big 12 games.
The Big 12 is insane basketball this year. But we cant overlook Youngstown St tonight. Have to handle business.
McNeil has already passed up a couple of looks. And we have ZERO post players with any skill offensively (Cottrill may play post, but he's not.a post player).
Against teams like Baylor or KU, or the entire league, WVU would be down by 15+ points already. We must find a way to score the ball.
Nobody is whining. Just stating facts. I think everyone just wants WVU to be successful.
Well, if you were watching, we missed about 8-10 shots from inside 5 feet or layups. That's not whining, that's a fact....and has nothing to do with the YSU "good defense".
I don't think anyone would have imagined we'd be on verge of 80 points in this one after that 1st half. Whatever Huggs said at halftime should be his pregame speech!
58 point second half? Well if we can't do better than that might as well just forfeit the rest of the season.
Sean McNeil 8-9 FG, 4-4 FT, 23
Taz Sherman 4-12 FG, 6-7 FT, 16
38 by Sean & Taz despite a first half when WVU couldn’t hit the ocean from the beach with a basketball.
Curry had 12, Bridges 9. That’s 21 points by a needed supporting cast against the Big 12.
WVU defense caused 20 turnovers.
Yes, the first half shooting was atrocious. At one stage WVU had as many points with free throws (10) as it did with field goals.
Reminds me of the Texas Tech-Tennessee game when two good teams missed 112 shots!
I suspect the Huggins halftime “chat” lit a fire.
There were 40 fouls called in the game, 25 on Youngstown. It was not a patty-cake game.
My alma mater is 11-1. No complaints.
Now comes the meanest, rootin’ tootin’ gauntlet in college basketball, the Big 12. There is NO team in the country that could go undefeated in Big 12 play. TEN games against Top 25 teams when you’re a Big 12 member!

UCONN AND VIRGINIA TECH, LIKE WVU AMONG THE ALSO RECEIVING VOTES IN THE TOP 25 RANKINGS, ARE THE MOST IMPRESSIVE VICTORIES SO FAR. WVU IS 27TH & 29TH IN THE NATIONAL RANKINGS. UCONN IS 27TH IN ONE. VIRGINIA TECH IS 37TH IN ONE.
You didn't play Virginia Tech in basketball. Are you counting the football win against them as being impressive for the basketball team?
What the Hell are you talking about? Virginia Tech? Have you confused them an Pitt?
Read it for yourself:
Others receiving votes: Oklahoma 65, West Virginia 57, UConn 55, Illinois 49, Loyola Chicago 42, Michigan 9, Arkansas 9, BYU 8, North Carolina 7, San Francisco 6, Wake Forest 5, Virginia Tech 4, Oklahoma State 4, Iowa 3, Minnesota 3, Creighton 2, Memphis 1
When did we play VT? Please, explain that to me. You said "are the most impressive victories". I'm confused.
Cfe never had it except in his fantasy world. He secretly wanted Trump to win you realize don't you?
We have not played VT. UConn is not a top 25 opponent and they we’re down 2 starters against us.
If you were a journalist (I believe I read you said you once were), then aren't you supposed to admit when you're wrong and write a correction?
Standard racist tactic. What else should we expect from such a racist like CFE?
