This state sucks. This arena sucks. WVU can't budget parking passes, but they're too dumb to check at the gate, we talked our way into the lot. All of their stadiums require media members to walk through the concourse, and their media room is a bunch of folding tables set up in some empty room.
You can't go to the bathroom, because all the dumb rednecks are busy pissing out the cases of beer they drank in line at the gate. The mess left behind by fans waiting outside for the gates to open rivals that of the biggest rock concerts.
Visiting student media members are put up in a booth where a camera used to be, accessed by walking through a row of people and then down a ladder. The food is terrible.
WVU never deserves to win a game again, and Panther Sports Network hopes to bring you good news along that front throughout the night.

In-game Women's Update-Pitt vs. #1 Uconn
Any hope Pitt may have had of snapping UConn's 59 game win streak was thwarted by a series of early steals and lay-ups leaving Pitt with a huge mountain to climb with a 25 point deficit at the half. UConn shot 63% from the field and received impressive performances from All-Americans Tina Charles and Maya Moore. Charles has imposed her will in the lane going 8-11 from the field to account for 18 points to go with her six rebounds and three blocks to pace the #1 Huskies. Moore has 16 points, five rebounds and four assists. Pitt has struggled with the press, but has mustered 32 points against a team that is holding opponents to only 44 a game. Pitt has been lead by Jania Sims (nine points) and Shayla Scott (eight points, four rebounds). If the Panthers are going to make a game out of this they need to shoot a very good percentage, break the press and limit turnovers.

Postgame blues
Well, after witnessing my first loss in the Petersen Events Center, a few things are on my mind:
- apparently Pitt used up all their miracles for the week on Saturday, here's hoping they find some more in the tournament
- Pitt needs to improve their defense and rebounding, as it has been lacking in the last few games vs Louisville and Connecticut.
0Jamie Dixon noted in the postgame press conference that a team that can't defend, and gets outshot and out rebounded can't win a game unless they make open shots, Pitt did not do that tonight, as Gibbs went 3-16 from the floor
- Wanamaker is still a hit or miss player, he makes brilliant plays, and holds on to the ball too long on others
- the unnamed football player from the previous post was Scott Mckillop, not Heath Miller
- was that really Jeff Reed or was it Pauly D?
