12/20/2014 8:27:09 PM

hope I didn't jinx the team with this >.<

12/20/2014 8:28:19 PM

I played this game on College Hoops 2k8 this morning. I hate to say it, but WVU beat us on a last second 3 pointer to win by 1 .

our record is 193-46 since FTW began making game threads

we're pretty much fucked now

12/20/2014 8:37:56 PM

Jaybee was gonna make the thread but he ate his keyboard

12/20/2014 8:43:29 PM

Billy Dee Williams plays for Arizona

12/20/2014 8:46:33 PM

Apparently WV has a pretty aggressive D and press. Their O stats aren't all that impressive.

Gotta take care of the ball

12/20/2014 8:51:12 PM

It may be a small sample size, but our adjusted scoring margin is over twice what West Virginia's is.

Using our ASM and West Virginia's averages, we win 84-40. Using West Virginia's ASM vs our averages, the expected outcome is we still win 65-60.

I think we score somewhere in the mid 70's and they score in the high 50's.

12/20/2014 8:51:17 PM

if we would've beat Wofford, we'd be top-20

12/20/2014 9:01:17 PM

Anyone else at MSG?

12/20/2014 9:19:43 PM

Im at LES. ARe there good scalp options?

12/20/2014 9:20:58 PM

Probably. I bought one on Ticketmaster yesterday for $19.

12/20/2014 9:21:44 PM

This is too late a tip time for me. Going to games this late is just exhaustive

12/20/2014 9:26:25 PM

Agreed. I'm going to bed. Got to get to church bright and early in the morning.

12/20/2014 9:29:33 PM

Stop talking about fucking volleyball and take us to the damn game already.

lol at Gott using the "they gotta guard us too, pal" line regularly

12/20/2014 9:32:49 PM

they gotta guard us too pal

12/20/2014 9:33:00 PM

Just played the "they Gotta guard us too pal" speech.

W.

12/20/2014 9:33:01 PM

well at least now I know there's a Shawn Kemp Jr.

12/20/2014 9:33:13 PM

Bob Knight looking miserable in his terrible sweater

12/20/2014 9:33:25 PM

God damn that is a great sweater

12/20/2014 9:33:37 PM

after we win the 2018 ncaa championship theyre going to print "they gotta guard us too, pal" shirts

12/20/2014 9:34:11 PM

after we win the 2018 championship, i'm gonna get "they gotta guard us too, pal" tattooed across my chest.

12/20/2014 9:35:27 PM

after we win the 2018 ncaa championship I'm going to print "they Gott guard us too, pal" shirts with the likeness of Gott on them

12/20/2014 9:36:59 PM

please block out thanks guys

12/20/2014 9:37:57 PM

just a hunch, but I feel like Rec Specs is gonna light us up

12/20/2014 9:38:10 PM

The fuck is the point of the jump ball when they're just going to let the guy tip it the second the ref let's it go? lol

12/20/2014 9:39:16 PM

i see West Virginia employs the Duke style "they can't call every hand check" style of defense

12/20/2014 9:41:04 PM

yep, its Turner

12/20/2014 9:41:40 PM

As long as the refs stay consistent throughout the game I love this style of officiating

12/20/2014 9:42:05 PM

is that already 4 fouls on WVU?

12/20/2014 9:44:22 PM

solid start.

that press/trap is scary

12/20/2014 9:44:48 PM

it's scarier when they're able to be as physical as they are without getting called for fouls (on the press... i realize they are otherwise)

and also when they play 10 deep

12/20/2014 9:46:30 PM

seemed like kinda a bullshit charge there

12/20/2014 9:47:19 PM

yep

12/20/2014 9:48:44 PM

can't have unforced turnovers (abu's walk, turner's charge) when we're played a D that already forces a lot of TOs

12/20/2014 9:49:58 PM

cancerous spin-move

12/20/2014 9:52:10 PM

barber's spin move > purvis' spin move

12/20/2014 9:53:38 PM

one more foul and we'll be in the bonus... need to hit those shots.

12/20/2014 9:53:41 PM

lol at this in depth critique of abu's free throws.

12/20/2014 9:55:29 PM

When we move Abu to the point?

12/20/2014 9:57:06 PM

2 abu turnovers vs the press

12/20/2014 9:57:18 PM

abu handled it well against the press last game... not sure what's going on here, except that WV's execution is better

12/20/2014 9:58:37 PM

Imagine Lewis against this press

12/20/2014 10:01:12 PM

yo cat...don't pick your dribble up along the sidelines.

12/20/2014 10:01:23 PM

This is like seahawks pass d. Foul every time since you know they can't call everything.
