Twitter Reaction: WVU Basketball Furthers Roller Coaster for Fans with Close Loss to Virginia

The same WVU basketball team that lost to Monmouth hung right with a ranked Virginia team on Wednesday night. This, of course, continued the inevitable roller coaster of this season for the Mountaineers.

Below includes some of the comments made by WVU fans while watching the game. Virginia ended up beating West Virginia 56-54 in a low-paced game.

Struggling with WVU is a very bad omen of things to come for Virginia…

#WVU is so quick to keep pushing the pace…why? You’re under manned…late in the game…up by two & chance to go up four. Slow. Down. They’re too excited.

Watching this WVU game.

We have almost as many coaches on the sidelines as players in uniform, lol. #WVU

This result, win or loss, had to be taken with a grain of salt because of UVa’s style of play.

If this were any other ranked team who plays with any sort of tempo, it’s exactly like the SMU game.

They will be unranked by Monday. Not sure they are very good. But it would have been a nice W
