There were a lot of issues complicating this game even before tipoff. First of all, the second most hated man in West Virginia, Doug Gottlieb, picked West Virginia to win. That’s literally the kiss of death for us. Next, Coach K and their so-called star players Greg Paulus, DeMarcus Nelson, and McDonald’s All-American freshman Kyle […]

Well, I only wish the Mountaineers were 40 minutes away from going to Phoenix against the 15 seed Belmont Bruins. Thanks to Gerald Henderson that didn’t happen so now the Eers must play 40 minutes of solid basketball against ESPN darlings the Duke Blue Devils. The good thing about West Virginia is that […]

Big East Tourney Semi’s
I can’t wait for this one, revenge is the name of the tournament for the Mountaineers and we have a big chip on our shoulder when it comes to G’town. How can we forget this:
My Predictions:
WVU over G’Town: 74 - 69
Pitt over Marquette: 69 - 67
I’m a little concerned that the guys […]

Much thanks go to our new superstar Joe Alexander. He had a career-high 34 point performance yesterday which included a poster-worthy dunk over Stanley Robinson in the final minutes of the game to seal the Eers 78-72 win.
Tonight, at the world’s most famous arena, West Virginia and Georgetown will face off at 7pm. In the […]

Ok I thouhgt I would try this since I took a looooong lunch and have my fingers crossed going into the last 7 minutes of the game vs. UCONN.
7:45 4th Quarter: Smalligan fouled out after a nice dunk.
