West Virginia opens the 2019-20 campaign against the Akron Zips

Welcome to the 2019-2020 West Virginia Basketball season! The West Virginia Mountaineers are back at the Coliseum since the most frustrating, irrelevant, unimportant and embarrassing game ever played at the Coliseum against Coastal Carolina. The last time we saw these Mountaineers, they were hosting Coastal Carolina on their home court. The team fell behind early and never recovered. Huggins and his Mountaineers went into the half down 50—36 and struggled even more in the second half, falling behind 90-66 at one point before slowly putting some effort into the final few minutes to make the final score somewhat palatable, 109-91.
