Game Thread: West Virginia Mountaineers vs. Marquette Golden Eagles
Marquette Golden Eagles at West Virginia Mountaineers, Feb 24, 2012 9:00 PM EST
The Buzz Williams brings his #10 ranked Marquette Golden Eagles to town tonight looking at the possibility of claiming a piece of the Big East regular season title. With only three games remaining on the schedule for the Mountaineers before the conference tournament, WVU is definitely in "must win" mode if they want to assure another trip to the big dance. Tonight's contest would only be tougher if it were on the road instead of at the Coliseum. The Mountaineers certainly have their backs against the wall and they better respond tonight if the NCAA streak is to remain intact under Huggs. Can KJ get some help? Will the other 2 upperclassmen offer enough support? Will any of the freshmen step up?

just down the road ???
brilliant ESPN announcer said Todd Mayo from Marquette was having a homecoming being from Huntington “just down the road” – that’s like someone from Cleveland would be welcomed as a prodigal son here in Steel Town – get a clue – guess they think all of West Virginians are kissin’ cousins
Yeah
at least the score doesn’t show it yet.

Well,
At least he didn’t get a three point play. We got that going for us. Maybe some of Buzz’s sweat will loosen their footing

Stop the penetration
WVU needs to stop their slashing-to-the-basket attack.

Is There...
a bigger douchebag than Marquette’s coach?
Dancing in front of our crowd…
And I swear to God, why is Truck always the guy taking the last shot….I can’t wait for him to graduate…
Now is the time boys to make a big noise.
No matter what the people say,
For there is naught to fear, the gang's all here,
So hail West Virginia, hail.
And Where Was the Foul....?
Truck may not have been my preference for a last play, but he was certainly fouled….

Burr don't call nothing
but what his first drink’s gonna be in the last five seconds.

Mu fan here
why was Jae Crowder getting booed every time he touched the ball? i feel like i missed something.
best case scenario: WVU watches a lot more Justified than the average group of 10,000+ people.
"Sportsmanship is just loser talk for losing."
Not sure
They might have realized he was pretty good. You obviously don’t respect Kentucky.

The fans throwing shit on the court (again) is embarrassing
Can we please put a camera on the student section, identify who does this, and kick them out of school?
T
One show of force is all that is needed. Put up notices stating that throwing anything will result in arrest, ejection from the property, expulsion from the university, and that you are under video surveillance. Then simply follow up when it happens. Once someone has a permanent arrest record, has been expelled from school, and is permanently banned from university grounds, word will quickly get around that this is not worth it.
I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard
to just ban them from home games. It’d be better to put them on the clean up crew for the bathrooms after the game.
