MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Some handle prosperity by going to the bank. Others handle it by splurging on a 64-inch plasma TV.
Neal Brown was a bit concerned that his team looked like the latter group at Kansas, though the Mountaineers ultimately made enough plays to avoid a trip to the proverbial pawn shop.
“We didn’t have a good week of practice last week, and it showed,” Brown said. “We didn’t handle prosperity well, and it showed. Which isn’t unusual for a young team.”
Coming off an emphatic 44-27 win over North Carolina State, West Virginia was taken to the limit in its 29-24 win at Kansas.
