West Virginia and Seton Hall squaring off today to start Big East play.
Right now, West Va. is winning 45-41 early in the second half. Although it does not appear MU is in a position to make any real noise in the Big East, I'm excited for the conference slate to start nonetheless.
1. Ebanks is a stud. 6'9'' with an incredible skill-set.
2. I imagine WVU this year to be how MU will be in a few years. A bunch of guys from 6'4''-6'9'' that can all rebound/handle/shoot/play defense with intensity.
We all knew WVU would be tough. But, "The Hall" look pretty darn good to me. That is going to be an extremely tough road win.
Good comeback by the Pirates, but WVU is just so deep. Def. don't see how we are going to match up to their size/athleticism.

Plus, WVU has a 6'2" veteran guard who isn't afraid "to get physical".
Hazell ties it at the buzzer.. onto OT we go.
That was a pretty sloppy finish for WVU, and and icy cold stroke from Hazell(sic).
It is nice to see the Beast schedule kick off with a good one.

Lesson learned to never switch games and assume the results are going to hold...stupid KU

Just don't take anything away from Seton Hall. That defense was nothing short of suffocating.
We will get absolutely destroyed on the road against these teams.

I know. Wasn't trying to diminish what Hall did. WVU just looked like they thought the win was a given at the end of regulation.
