Mission Accomplished

Senior night went off as planned for the most part. West Virginia was just a step quicker in the first half and they were able to get a lot of calls to go their way early. That helped them to build and hold on to a big lead in the first half. There was a definite let down in the second half as Georgetown made a game of it. But it was too little too late for the Hoyas.

In sad news, it was senior night. This was the last time we will see Da'Sean Butler and Wellington Smith in the Old Gold and Blue in the Coliseum. I don't want to go into lists of accomplishments, etc. That's something better saved for when the season is over, and there is a lot of basketball still to play for this team. For now, we'll just tip our hats and say thanks, guys!

Update: Here's Huggs talking about the game and the guys. He could probably say it better than you or me.

Let's Destroya the Hoya

We're basically going to steal from Hoya Suxa to get you ready for tonight's game against Georgetown.



West Virginia can lock up a top four seeding in the BE tourney with a win tonight. As well as adding in another win over a ranked team as we position ourselves for a high seed in the NCAA tourney.

We'll never match the hatred Hoya Suxa has for Georgetown. But for one night, one glorious night, let's destroya the Hoya's!

Peeking Through My Fingers at the Georgetown Game

Hopefully we'll make Matt proud! Consider this an open thread for tonight's game with teh suxa.

The good news is that D.C. still seems to be hung over from the inauguration as there are a lot of empty seats.

Woo Hoo! 75-58
