Interested to see how WVU's physical, pressing, and fouling style will travel on the road vs a team similar to Iowa St, that likes to score.
By the same token, we've already beaten WVU on the road so assuming we beat them at home itd be nice to have the tiebreaker if we get tied for 2nd with WVUI think we root for OU here... OU will get swept by KU. WVU might split.
We will be competing with these two teams for second place. Really think WVU has more losses ahead than OU.
Looks like OU is gonna paste them anyway. Wouldn't be surprised at all if OU goes 8-1 in their last nine.
Most of you seem to have given up on the possibility of ISU winning the conference this year. But WVU is only 1 game behind KU. With two head-to-head games coming up, WVU is in control of their own destiny. So why aren't you guys rooting for WVU tonight in hopes that they can dethrone Kansas? Or perhaps you want KU's streak to continue until ISU can dethrone us.
I see no difference in 2nd or 3rd in the conference. Here's to WVU winning all but one to win the conference.
What am I missing here?
West Virginia showed what happens when they don't play TCU or Texas Tech. Break their press and take care of the ball and force WVU into a half court offense and they are doomed. Only Texas Tech is worse at shooting the ball than West Virginia. WVU will lose at least five of their last 10 games including last night.
WVU also sucks on the road where the refs aren't going to pass on half the fouls they commit.
I dont' think thats it.... I think WVU doesn't commit as many fouls away from home. They still get roughly the same amount of fouls called. But their bullying on the BB court doesn't travel.
