Wish they were playing a little later in the day. Gonna miss most or all of it. Hopefully we can get a big road win!!!

 

[WVUBRU]

Yes, I will miss live also but will watch on replay.

 

[WVUALLEN]

A win not likely as Stripes will take over if it gets too close. I remember 35-2 (WVU 1-2 Kentucky 26-35) Losing by 8 points 77-69.

When does Tucker come back? I hope to catch part of the game on TV. Definitely will have it on the radio 📻

 

[locustwv]

13-3. WVU. Just looked it up. Very nice!!!

 

[WVUALLEN]

Great game so far. Hope officials keep their whistle in their pockets.

Syracuse vs Wake Forest is on ESPN2 and our game is stuck on sh*++y ESPN+

This game may or may not end well, but we’ve got ourselves a basketball coach

 

[WVUALLEN]

The stripes are taking over for KU it's 5 against 8.

Predictable. We have never won there for a reason. I’m not sure we’ve ever even been up like this before. No KU player with more than 1 foul lol.

Next year. Has to have surgery on his shoulder.

It's not the first Big lead we've had had at the phog.

This late in the half? Either way, hold on tight….this one is going to get dramatic

 

[WVUALLEN]

Crazy.

We were up 8 with 3 plus minutes to go in 2017 and lost by 2.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Looking like same song, different dance.

 

[jlaudiomaster]

Yep. Hard to overcome a 10 point free throw attempt advantage in a low scoring game. Unfortunately, I believe the trend will continue.

 

[xWVU2010x]

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss

 

[WVUALLEN]

They don't return to Morgantown this year.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Back on track yes!

 

[WVUALLEN]

Be prepared for heavy whistles and foul outs.

 

[jlaudiomaster]

Be prepared for heavy whistles and foul outs.

Must be nice to get a whistle on every offensive possession. Certainly doesn’t hurt your home record.

 

[xWVU2010x]

100% turnover coming

 

[xWVU2010x]

lmao wow I can’t believe we won that

 

[jlaudiomaster]

Give him a lifetime contract!

 

[The Bell Tolls for Thee]

WEEEEEEEEEEE!

 

[MountaineerWV]

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss

Ummm.......huh?

 

[MountaineerWV]

lmao wow I can’t believe we won that

Please, leave. Thank you.

 

[Phil1972]

I turned it on at 48-33. Glad I didn't jinx 'em.

 

[The Bell Tolls for Thee]

I guess everyone saying Huggins was so much better than any possible alternative over the previous 5 seasons weren't exactly accurate.

 

[xWVU2010x]

Ummm.......huh?

Oh shut up lol we literally repeated every single stupid thing we always do in the final minute in that building and KU just didn’t take it this time. Happy we won though

No you aren't.

 

[locustwv]

GOT EM’!!!! F@ck Kansas and their free throws!! Didn’t work this time!!!

 

[skygusty]

For a bit there in the second half I thought Kansas would have to pull out a gun and shoot one of our players to get a foul called. Small is Huge.
