Game tips off at 6 p.m. Saturday and will be televised by Big 12 Now on ESPN+
 
Walker is the guy for UAB. In seven games this year, Walker is averaging 25.7 points per game in addition to almost 5 assists per game. KenPom rating him the game MVP in four of the Blazers’ seven wins.

I expect this will be a tight game. Especially since UAB is looking for a signature win in their first true road game.
 
First game I don’t be able to watch. Gotta go to a stupid Christmas party. I think it’s

WV 88
UAB 81
 
We had a horrible team last year and beat them at their house. Walker was held to 13 points on 6 of 20 shooting. He also had 7 turnovers. Kedrian Johnson and Kobe Johnson could play defense then. Seems to be a forgotten duty this year.

Double-teaming in backcourt not working for UAB.
UAB on pace to 1/3 its usual scoring this season.
Johnson has hot hand with 11, same as Matthews.
Wague, too emotional as usual, in foul trouble with 3 personals. Rest of WVU team has only 6.
WVU 40-31. Good 1st half.

Please, sir, may I have more in the 2nd half!
 
Halftime longer than the Super Bowl. WTF?
Did they start the game and not broadcast it?
 
This is a helluva game. Mathews is having a good night. Love seeing it. We just have to put it away and finish.
 
Good win. UAB is good team and made for a fun game to watch. I like our team this year a lot. I like all the players and they are playing hard.
