Buckeyes Routed by Mountaineers

Ohio St. came into the game boating the nation's longest win streak at 14 games.

They left a humbled bunch.

West Virginia used a second half explosion and displayed Coach Huggins' legendary toughness to bully the Buckeyes all over the court. At MarchManiacs.com we talk a lot about "measuring stick" games. These are when similarly ranked teams from power confernces square off. It tells you a lot about the conference's relative strength.

The 76-48 drubbing of Ohio St speaks very well for a Big East conference that was surprisingly equalled in the early going by the Big 10. It is tougher to argue the Big East isn't the best conference in the nation after this contest.
