Why? For one, because I think teams that play on the first day have an advantage over the opponent playing their first game the next day. IMO, tired legs don't become a problem until that third game in three consecutive days/nights. Two, WVU isn't a bad matchup for us. Three, I think MU has gotten "the piano off of their back" so to say in terms of that pressure of having to win a game to feel comfortable with their NCAA chances. Think we see a loose group tomorrow night that wins by 5-10 points.
Lets hope we defend the three a little better.
Of course we can win. WVU has mulitple losses this year and we beat them already. Its going to be tough but obviously we can win this one.
Need some clutch shooting. No turnovers and we cant have brick hands on loose ball rebounds because they will eat us alive.
I agree. I think we'll win tomorrow and get smoked big time on Thursday (which is perfectly fine).
Also, we've already beaten WVU this year...

Me too, and not get smoked because of not being as good as Ville, but just not enough gas in the tank which this team has to have moreso than most teams to succeed.

I haven't looked at the stats, but I would think if you're bad at defending the 3, WVU would be one of the better BE teams to play. I don't think that's their strength. Gotta keep the Dancing Bear from dancing.

Just stay on Casey Mitchell like crap on a fly and we'll be okay.
Can Jae duplicate what he did New Year's Day? I'll settle for half those points and the Warriors prevail.
