West Virginia 2, New Jersey 0

West Virginia downed Seton Hall, 89-68. I saw and heard none of it. But I bet it was great. This is where I will look at the box score and pretend to know what happened.

Looks like Huggins was able to clear the benches as 12 different Mountaineer players scored in the game. Where was Cam Thoroughman? He almost single-handedly helps us beat Providence then he can’t get on the court in garbage time against Rutgers or Seton Hall? Maybe it’s an injury thing but I haven’t seen it mentioned anywhere.

Jeremy Hazell scored 30 for the Pirates so I guess he was lighting somebody up. WVU again came close to having a better 3-point percentage (.458) than free throw percentage (.462). Wellington Smith with 6 blocks, when did he suddenly become a stud blocking machine? John Flowers was getting quality minutes earlier on and now he’s kind of faded away completely, what’s the deal there? Ted Talkington was heard from for the first time in weeks. All in all, a pretty good day for the Mountaineers but as I said after the Rutgers game, let’s temper our enthusiasm until we get another real test. Playing at suddenly-alive Villanova this week should do.
