If we were a “blue blood” and lost to Arizona we wouldn’t have.

I agree. A 4 loss Gonzaga at 16. Be different if we had no significant wins but we have 2 huge ones and 3 very good ones with really no bad loses.

No big deal. Use it as a motivator for the upcoming games. But that probably doesn't matter much either with this group. They have their heads on right. Just need to get healthier and against Houston, need to shoot 50% from 3. Rankings has nothing to do with that reality.

This guy should be booted from college basketball. Or at least banned from doing WVU games.

Houston plays pressure d and is very effective at it. Full court, half court or man to man.

Dribbling all over floor will not work. Need to pass the ball and no unforced turnovers.

Force Houston to play up tempo and fast.

Odds of winning this one is not good.

I agree but this team surprises me almost every time they play.

Yes surprise they do. But the lack of depth is going to catch up with us soon.

Never said it was a "big deal". Just pointing out the hypocrisy of the polls.
