I like the points of course. Trying to convince myself why lol.... Why would WV not want to renew? Because Marshall isnt an attainable win any longer? And could have ruin future tourney hopes for WV? Marshall sure ruined it for the Blue raiders. Then ended wichita st's hopes. Can they play another good game against WV defense?
Not my write-up: but I liked it enough to play them, mainly because of the state rivalry, and then the points were just to tempting for me to pass up.
copy and pasted this for you
There is no love lost between Marshall and West Virginia and the in-state rivals present perhaps the most tantalizing second-round matchup in the NCAA Tournament when they meet Sunday in the East Region in San Diego. The 13th-seeded Thundering Herd won their first-ever tournament game with an 81-75 upset of Wichita State on Friday, presenting them with a chance to meet a hated foe, although the initial reaction was to downplay the bitterness.
"Hell, I’m still celebrating this one. You’re off on the other one?" Marshall coach Dan D'Antoni told the media when asked of a matchup with the Mountaineers. "I have no idea. ... Let's enjoy this a little bit and we'll get ready for West Virginia and I really don’t have to worry. These are all gym rats. They're going to be ready to go when it's time to go." The two schools - separated by about 200 miles - played every year from 1977 through 2015 before the Mountaineers elected to end the annual clash in a somewhat contentious decision. West Virginia coach Bob Huggins, who shot back at D'Antoni in 2014 when the latter suggested that the Mountaineers were planning to back out of the series because they were afraid, initially dodged questions about the renewal of the rivalry after his fifth-seeded team defeated Murray State 85-68 in the first round. "Can I say one thing?" he said later in the press conference. "I've got great respect for Danny and what he's done. He took over. They were down and I've got great respect for him since he's become the coach. ... This is not a Hatfields and McCoys thing. We have great relationships [between the] staffs."

Should be happy that I ended up in the + for the day, but I'm not. Feel like Purdue got away as did X, and tried to play WV the 2nd half and was a tad to late hitting the button.
