Welcome, By-Godders, to the Shotgun/Throwdown, WVU's best place for sports links, information, sophomoric humor and daily distractions; Now nationally recognized! We're being brought to you today by Bit Copa beer, in honor of today's Miss Throwdown.
The men gave us another scare by almost blowing another big lead on Saturday and the women just keep on rolling. I won't comment on the baseball team because it hasn't been pretty to this point. Oh, yeah...and the rifle team just won it's conference over the weekend. We got Big Monday again tonight, this time on the road at UConn. Let's keep the Huskies tourney hopes squarely on the bubble and let's not be another quality win for their resume. I can always use tips, suggestions and requests. Time to get started...
Let's GOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
