    3 Guys Before The Game - WVU Baseball Topped By Tar Heels (Episode 723)

    The challenge is familiar. The stakes have never been higher. West Virginia’s quest for a national championship took an unexpected turn Sunday when North Carolina handed the Mountaineers a loss that leaves no margin for error.

What followed was one of the most memorable stretches in program history. Now, another chapter awaits. In this episode, the “Guys” dissect Sunday’s setback, explain what went wrong and examine what West Virginia must do to keep its season alive when it faces Troy on Tuesday afternoon. Hoppy delivers his Obvious Observations, Brad brings another edition of Spreads on Stats, and the crew looks ahead to what could be another remarkable run. The “Guys” return Wednesday with a complete recap of the elimination showdown against Troy.
