Sat., Oct. 15 at Texas Tech: I've not embraced the Big XII as far as rivalries go. We really don't have a natural rival yet, but one of the two teams I abhor is Texas Tech. I think Kliff Kingsbury is vastly overrated and I would love nothing more than to head to Lubbock and kick their arses! But we have our hands full with these guys. They have Patrick Mahomes who many think is the best QB in the Big XII and he can sling that pill around the yard. But they also have a pitiful defense that couldn't stop me and Hoss from gaining 200 yards on the ground against them. If you like high flying offense and high scoring games, this one will be for you! Whoever has the ball last probably will be the winner.
WVU: 52 TTU: 49

Winds forecasted out of the southwest, 10-20 mph. Skyler better be ready.

10-20 is probably pretty mild for there and we have more of a ground game.
I had this as as an L preseason, but I'm calling now for a 44-42 win on a last second Molina Fg into the wind.
Editor's note: Every time this joker gets optimistic and switches to a W we lose. But he's not a jinx.

Have these officials ever heard of pass interference?

That was perhaps the worst coverage I've ever seen...

You're suggesting that was coverage???

Furthermore, you take a TD off the board AND assess 35 yards in penalties, all the while being oblivious to pass interference calls?

That was a HUGE 14-point swing! Went from possible TTTD to a turnover and touchdown WV!

Just an observation...
Am I a HUGE WVU fan? Of course I am. Very optimistic and slightly delusional fan.
But I still can't get into the Big XII. I just don't like Texas teams...any of them. I don't get excited like I did for any Big XII team we play.
While I want to win, it's just not the same.

I want to win but the games all blend together....there is nothing special or unique about any fiven game. ...except the big rivalry with Iowa State, of course. |

Great drive and touchdown there by Skylar!
Now, to hold them for the remaining 4:22 of the half if we can.
Maybe even score again?

Great first half of football, despite the penalties. Now what worries me is two things...
1) We left at least 14 points if not more on the field that half. In all honesty, it should be around 38-0 right now.
b) We never play two good halves of football, so if this was the "good half" where will be be the second half?
If we can just keep scoring and play some semblance of defense we win. We are the better team today, but as in many WVU football games, the "better team" doesn't always win.
Nevertheless...I think we will win!

TT will need at least 4-5 huge plays by Mahomes to have a chance. He's good but just keep him throwing several more scramble TDs and we win.

I'm in favor of declining any penalties against TT's offense that don't eliminate a big gain and would make it a 20+ to go situation.
Obviously.

Just like Rutgers, UConn, USF, Cindy, Temple...if we're going to live in the past I didn't five a shit about playing any of them. I like new things. |

There's your officiating Randy...Brown was hurt and the refs let the play run over top of him.

Assuming this review does not overturn the call, and I don't think it will, McKoy needs the next carry to score. This is his drive.

Of all the places to fake a punt, that doesn't seem like an optimum one. Oh well.
