Game Thread: East Region Finals - #2 WVU vs. #1 Kentucky
West Virginia Mountaineers at Kentucky Wildcats, Mar 27, 2010 7:00 PM EDT

The story lines have been beaten to death. Now it's game time. Can we handle Wall, Cousins and Patterson? Can we fix the turnover bug we had against Washington? Youth vs. Experience. Speed vs. Physicality. Which wins? Can Huggs and the team notch another win in the state of NY (tonight would be 8 straight)? Let's show UK how we ball at WVU and send those blue-bloods home with their tails between their legs.
As always, and forever...

Stomach it Knots
A win tonight doesn’t seem possible in my emotional history of being a WVU fan, it seems possible based on the match ups. I can’t really handle it and I can’t drink because I have to drive 3 hours through the mountains after the game. I guess I will have to drown my emotions in Diet Dr. Pepper.
Damn. Let’s GO!

Let's go MOUNTAINEERS!
Down under they just don’t have US college basketball on their radar. I’ll be watching the scores progress on my blackberry!
Take it easy on that diet Dr. Pepper!!!!!!!!

MY PRE-GAME SPEACH
“OUT BLOCK EM, OUT SHOOT EM, OUT REBOUND EM, THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE PLAYED THE OLD GOLD AND BLUE, NOT THIS NIGHT!!!!! NEVER BAIL ON YOUR WINGMAN.
KEN
did you just
quote Bill Stewart for this special basketball team???? Please.
Half way there
But I’m too nervous. Can’t get 2 points in the paint? Can’t win that way.
But I like the attitude. They aren’t scared of this team. They know they can play with Kentucky.
We just need some inside presence.
Let’s Go Mountaineers!!!!

Great game Mountaineers
Got to give credit to Kentucky. They played well and tough. I think they just made WVU a little more tougher and ready for Duke/Baylor.
Fantastic Game. Can’t wait for next Saturday. It can’t come fast enough.
