I'm ready to be hurt again....actually not really because I expect the losses now.

WVU -2.5 sure sounds like free money...but I don't like betting against the bears.

Temptation will force me to check the game score but I'll be darned if I'm gonna waste 3 hours watching.

Tip has moved to 3:05CT awaiting the Texas v OU game to finish. Less than a minute of game time remain.

Thanks for starting a thread, Bradley.

I'm frustrated with this season, but my Bears are my Bears.

We're moving the ball on O so far better than we have in the past couple of weeks.

Agbim wants to keep hitting 3's, that would be fine with me

WVU strategy is in plain view. They feel like can back us down and out physical us down low. Bears D up to the challenge so far.

Long way to go...but right now i don't recognize this team. Great team energy to start.

As good of a start as you could ask for. Hope this can end up being similar to our game at Stillwater.

    WV is as bad as BU. This is definitely one of a handful of winnable games. Definitely needed the fast start the boys got

    Wow. Our D actually forced a shot clock violation

    How long do you want to ignore this user?
    West Virginia missing a lot of open shots. Hopefully that continues.

    15-8 at the 2nd media time out.

    Very sloppy second four minutes. Already have five turnovers.

    15-8 Bears

    We have 5 TOs and not even 10 minutes into the game. Gotta clean that up.

    But at least this has been the offensive Agbim I've been waiting to see.
    Johnny Bear
    How long do you want to ignore this user?
    Agbim misses wide open look then 2 straight TOs. Hopefully this isn't a sign the real BU team we've gotten used to is suddenly showing up again.
    Big12Fan2024
    How long do you want to ignore this user?
    As luck has it, just as I compliment he misses an easy one.

    Feels like a fools gold start. Will see if we can weather the inevitable run by WV that's coming

    Turnovers turnovers turnovers. This team is just ass
    Johnny Bear
    How long do you want to ignore this user?
    Make that 3 TOs in a row

    Williams is so bad every game. Can never make the easy pass.

    15-13 after a poor 2 minutes.

    Lead gone. Blowout incoming. Time to find something productive to do. Enjoy watching the garbage boys
