Get a nice road win!!!

 

[WVUBRU]

We need a good game today. Looking forward to it.

Girls game ticked me off yesterday. We should have won that one.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Quit shooting so many 3's before running the offense.

 

[WVUALLEN]

See run the offense before the 3.

 

[WVUALLEN]

We're screwed 2 fouls on Andre.

We're screwed 2 fouls on Andre.

Yes that definitely hurts.

 

[locustwv]

Unbelievable that was called Colorados ball

Jake Auer gets in first half?

Injuries are killing this team.

Could Ofri play a couple games and still keep his redshirt? Give the team another warm body while we are dealing with injuries?

No. If they play now they would lose the RS.

 

[skygusty]

They are eating Auers lunch.

 

[skygusty]

So Tenner is injured too?

 

[locustwv]

We are gonna blow this if we don’t get our stuff together.

 

[WVUBRU]

We weren't screwed in the first half. SMH

Good game with heart and belief with all the players on the court for 40 minutes. Next two games are going to be tough but anything can happen. Believe.

Nice win!!! Small is getting a little hot headed!! He needs to calm down a little.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Perhaps the worst set of officials I have ever seen.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Nice win!!! Small is getting a little hot headed!! He needs to calm down a little.

I don't blame him with the one sided calls. Colorado went 12 minutes without a FG and came back by using officials whistle.

A LOT of pressure being put on him. And if he doesn't get consistent help, he's going to break down (mentally and physically).

 

[WVUALLEN]

This game is a blowout win without the stripes.

Yesufu helped carry the load this time.

 

[WVUALLEN]

8 Total FG on 23 attempts by CU in 2nd half with 24 points from the foul line.

 

[WVUALLEN]

If not for CU having to force the fouls in final 4 minutes we possibly lose.

Elevation was non factor. Stripes huge factor.

Kinda feels like we played at Kansas.

I agree but that shove at the end before we inbounded the ball gets called 90% of the time. I was stunned they didn’t call a Technical on that one.

The shove doesn't bother me. The one where he gave the small symbol after a made basket, they did T him up, Bothered me. He deserved that one. CU was allowed to play physical, shove push and hold WVU entire 2nd half. Somehow we kept the lead or we lose it.

 

[WVUBRU]

I thought it was an excellent officiated game. They made an adjustment at half and started to attack the basket including taking advantage of inexperienced players (Aure) and our bigs. Every foul called was a foul. Give them credit. Give us credit for keeping our cool and making some very good smart ball. Well done.

 

[WVUBRU]

DeVries deserves credit

I totally disagree about officiating

You can.

I don't understand why Elocovic didn't get any minutes. Is he also injured? He isn't great but he could have given us 6-8 minutes on the inside and had 5 fouls to give against their attacks to the basket

You shouldn't drink during games. It's affecting your eye sight. Yes a few of them were fouls but majority was total BS from Kippy. Calls were not made the same on both sides. F-Colorado and F-Kissinger. That game is a blowout if called the same on both ends. Thank goodness CU had to foul on purpose the last 3 minutes.

Playing Aure was a huge mistake.
