When the buzzer sounded for halftime of West Virginia's game against No. 15 Duke Friday, the Mountaineers were down 23–20—and the score was the least of their problems.
In the wake of a shoving match late in the second quarter, the game's referees threw out West Virginia's entire bench on the grounds that they entered the court to participate. That forced the Mountaineers to roll with just five players for the remainder of the contest.
