It feels like we should be down by 10 or so. The gals are hanging in there.

BF always plays the percentages. I don’t expect WV to keep shooting so well from outside and I hope we can get loose to connect on a few 3s.

Will be interesting to see how this game is officiated. I hate this style of basketball.

Just like the men, mugging our players with no calls.
This is 1000% worse! Addy B was grabbed in the thigh as she was making a move earlier in the quarter - no call. AJ and AC both were body checked on balls that were headed out-of-bounds - nothing called! I am just livid with this sh**** reffing! Call it tight right away & set the tone. UNACCEPTABLE and INCOMPETENT officiating!

Need to give up fewer wide-open corner threes and need to start making them pay for pressing with 4/5ths of their team.

It's the formula Texas used to rout them in Morgantown.

My favorite is when a coach chooses to play this style of ball…and then complains at foul calls

70% of their shots are 3s.

Unless ISU is dumb enough to foul 3 point shooters they should have almost no fouls.

I was talking about this very thing with my wife. The past two years of MBB, our opponents usually shot more FTs that us - that, to me, was to be expected because of our aggressiveness. IMO, there should be even way more fouls against WVU tonight.

Officials within 3 WVU possessions with a travel that eventually leads to a 3 point shot. They need to catch the violations BEFORE they score.
