I’m not worried about metrics with this team. Either we figure out the rebounding issues and we are comfortably in or we don’t and we aren’t close enough for it to matter
Pretty crazy we haven’t had a bubble team since 12/13
2 years ago maybe counts? We weren’t really on the bubble by the time of the ACCT but we were on it after the win @Duke.

I don’t count it since we weren’t on any ‘first four out’ or even many ‘next four out’ (want to say we weren’t on any but maybe there’s 1 or two places I don’t remember) lists by selection weekend. We weren’t even seeded in the NIT which suggests we weren’t one of the next 16 teams to miss the tournament

Not that he was expected to play tomorrow but I mentioned in the preview WVU’s RaeQuan Battle was waiting on his waiver appeal. Denied.

Game day. Let’s go Hoos!
Good performance today takes some of the sting out of Monday nights performance. Long season let’s see how we bounce back

Vegas has faith. UVA -9.5.
Not sure what I think. Probably put it closer to 5-6

Based on just how bad we played Monday? Because on paper -9.5 seems fair. WVU is really bad

WVU has a short rotation + plays zone defense which should mean much easier looks from the perimeter + a lot of new pieces so more Florida and less Wisconsin and less familiarity with our playbook on both ends

The Warren Commission didn’t study the Zapruder film with anywhere close to the amount of scrutiny we give a 10-second practice tape.

Sounds like a Warren Commission problem. Probably didn’t have anyone with expertise in deciphering Torvik. Rookie mistake

Nah. Just bc it’s a quick turnaround for us as well. Will be another loud crowd against us in a crappy gym and I worry we’ll be fighting our own head a bit today.
And crappy or not Edwards can do the same things Crowl did

Restoring trust. That’s what today is. At least, the first step in that process. We looked so bad against Wisconsin, it’s really hard to trust that we are a “good team”. It’s gonna take a number of games to get back to that.

Agree 9.5 feels pretty good actually. I wouldn’t be suprised if the hoos won tonight by double digits. The zone I saw WVU run was not impressive and with the shooters on the floor and a probing guard paired with an athletic big. It could be a long night for the ears.

My main takeaway from the vid is someone needs to track down Rohde’s misses, poor guy spent the whole video getting up one shot
