Post-Game Hangover: Miami Hurricanes (12/11/11) Edition

(Photo by Joe Sadlek All-Pro Photography). via www.wvmetronews.com

Saturday was another good day for WVU basketball, as both the women and men picked up victories in their final contests before the short break in the schedule for final exams. While the women were never really contested in their game against North Florida, the men were locked in a close game at halftime against Miami. Miami was hitting just about everything they threw up in the first half, only to go without a FG for the better part of the first 9 minutes or so of the second half. Truck and the Turk had big nights as the Mountaineers went on a 31-5 run to start the second half and cruise to an easy win.

Reminds me

of the Marquette game a few years ago. Except we were on the winning end this time. That game was just a soul crusher. Let’s hope it propels us to a better season than what has been predicted.
