Twitter Reaction: WVU Fans Both Proud of Effort, Still Frustrated After Ohio State Loss
So close. That’s the overwhelming feeling around Mountaineer Nation right now after WVU came up just shy, losing in overtime to Ohio State 78-75 in the Legends of Basketball Showcase on Saturday night.
The reaction from this game is a mix of being proud of the team’s effort and some optimism about this group gelling together, but also still a frustration over another loss and a sense of the bad luck continuing.
That’s okay! We are getting there. The fight and drive of our guys was on display coast to coast tonight. pic.twitter.com/k5SuCeClTH

We were sunk by their 3-point shooting and some mistakes. However, they really coming together just wish we had the entire team at full force and someone to hit some 3’s! They are fin to watch and I haven’t said that in many years.

COMMENTARY: 2023 has been the most adverse, transformative and uncertain years in the history of the WVU men’s basketball program.
The way these guys came out and fought Ohio State to the brink is admirable. Brighter days are coming

I love the fight in this WVU basketball team… But damn you gotta put together some stops defensively to give yourselves a real chance at the win

Just so we are all clear.. @WVUBasketball should’ve had the last position in regulation. How do the officials miss that should have been .03 or more left?

#WVUBasketball cannot afford to make dumb mistakes. Yet they do.

This is a not great WVU men’s basketball team but these officials are gonna make sure that they don’t surprise OSU in their home state.
