They do something completely different than anybody in the country. ... Its brutal. Having to play against a press for 40 minutes, its tough and they do not stop.

Its not just stealing the ball, coach Bob Huggins said of the press. Its a cumulative effect of making them work, not being able to walk the ball up the floor and play at their pace. We want them to play at our pace.Virginia: Winning is always a priority, but so is having options, and coach Tony Bennett was trying to get both accomplished late in the game when he had freshman guard Ty Jerome on the court for a long stretch. Jerome, like fellow freshman Kyle Guy, was a prolific scorer in high school and with the Cavaliers sure to scratch for points at times this season, getting all the younger options up to speed and battle tested will be key for the Cavaliers before ACC play commences. Bennett said Jeromes ball-handling ability made having him on the court important.LONG WAITThis was West Virginias true road win over a Top Ten team since the Mountaineers beat No. 5 Kentucky 77-70 in December 1957.EARLY SHOWERThe Mountaineers won despite losing Daxter Miles Jr., who was leading all scorers with 7 points, to a flagrant foul ejection with 2:42 left in the first half.
