Game Thread: West Virginia Mountaineers vs. #14 Oklahoma State Cowboys

Coach Huggins has the men back in action today at the Oliver Garden when they take on the Pokes from Oklahoma State. Make no mistake, this is a very good Cowboys team that just lost a heartbreaker in double overtime against Kansas earlier in the week. Couple that fact with a Mountaineer team that is so maddeningly inconsistent and we could have a recipe for a blowout. This is new ground for Huggs as this team has no realistic chance at the big dance. Does he finally give in and try playing for the future or does his over-competitive nature win out?

Maybe even more importantly, do we try and spend the whole game thread avoiding talking about basketball as we did in the podcast earlier this week?
