The Shotgun/Throwdown: West Virginia keeps tournament hopes alive with win over Oklahoma State

Welcome, By-Godders, to The Shotgun/Throwdown, WVU’s best place for sports links, information, sophomoric humor and daily distractions.

The West Virginia men’s basketball team should stay on the right side of the NCAA Tournament bubble with its big win over Oklahoma State, 85-67. Points off turnovers ended up being the difference for WVU. The Cowboys suffered from 18 turnovers, and the Mountaineers capitalized by scoring 28 points off of those turnovers.

Fifth-year senior Erik Stevenson did his thing, leading the team with 23 points and five rebounds. The WVU guard also made five of six three-pointers.
