Interpret as you will, but WVU apologists seem like they have a pretty futile argument. The old saying: "Statistics are for losers," may be true, but I see nothing here to be concerned about. So maybe they get a couple more steals or offensive rebounds. We can/will MORE than make up for those in most every other facet of the game.

I'm truly not worried about WVU.
