Enjoy These Saturdays While You Still Can.....
- Thread starter Humptod
- Start date
At least we will have something to look forward to on Saturday. Top 25 matchups, national tv, Game Day, games that matter...
It would suck knowing that, even if you go undefeated, you will be playing in some ****** little bowl, that no one will watch nor care about. You might as well go back to IAA, where you belong, and stop wasting taxpayer money...
I just turn the channel when the option is watching the blundering herd beat up high school teams. Makes Saturday more relaxing.
Dread is knowing you have no chance of winning....you are familiar with that humpy...like mooU against WVU!!!
In order for you to have a " Top 25 matchup", you'll first have to crack the Top 25.
We were once again involved in more top 25 matchups last year than the herd.. but you have that mercy ranking at the end of the season... 13 wins to barely crack the top 25? Ouch!
A charity ranking by voters so the big boy games against you and your hapless band of clowns seem more interesting.
Vegas would have us ar 14 pt faves. Add everyone needing points to convince them with everyone who would atill take the points to the list.
Speculation? That is pure Comedy Gold. You won 13 games and just barely got ranked... Per the AP 19 schools ranked ahead of you had two or more losses. Right now you're a 1 TD favorite, at home, versus a team predicted to win 2-4 games (most seem to think 3).

No surprise since about 28 DIAA schools played a harder schedule. True pussies...
Good, give you boys something to fell good about in December if Santa only gives you a lump of dirty burning coal!
We all know how much Marshall fans value quality wins... Meeeeeeeoooooowwwww!
I don't think pity rankings are funny. Cheapens the process for those who chose NOT to play a DIAA-quality schedule...
The only funny thing about it is how herd fans beat their chests despite the fact that it was clearly a pity ranking...
As many quality wins as they have wins vs WVU...
Humpy said: "You're delusional."
delusional:
1.having false or unrealistic beliefs or opinions
2.Psychiatry. maintaining fixed false beliefs even when confronted with facts
Seriously? We know who the delusional one is!!
Humpy and I somewhat disagree on this issue, I don't think you boys will have a "bad" season, you 'll swept throug hthe OOC chumps on the slate and beat KU and ISU the two worse so called P-5 programs out there. You'll ambush one other half *** bunch and thus get to 6 wins...which ain't all that bad. But nobody will mistake the 2015 edition of WVU football as being a "good" team, good teams will blister you boys ***!
We did beat more good teams, last season, than Marshall has beaten in the past decade, as we will beat more this season...
Last year don't mean much this year....going by that theory BU shouldn't have lost to you last year as the year before they scored a 100 points on WVU! Every year the game' s start 0-0!
My prediction for WVU is 9-3 or better. TCU, Baylor (2 of the top 3 or 4 teams in the country is tough), Oklahoma, and KSU, all on the road is, again, tough. I think we get KSU on the road, and win one of the other three. If we hold serve at home (TX and OkSt) that puts us at 10-2. But, I'll stand on 9-3, and take a hit on 8 wins. Seriously considering putting some large coin on the Over in Vegas.
I'll be here in December to either eat my crow or wallow in the success.
Have a 138 QBR under center. A plethora of fast, big, and talented WRs. One of the better defenses in the country. A stable of good and versatile RBs. My big question is the ability of our OL. If it comes through, look out.
Tony, you just dismissed your juggernaut, Georgia Southern(who would be favored at home over Marshall) as a "chump". They have a higher preseason ranking than Purdue, much higher. Thought it was going to be a "dogfight", not a "sweep through"?

I do think GSU- WVU will be a dogfight but I've always thought that WVU would win the game! I don't doubt WVU has some raw talent but not much proven talent yet...I'm giving you boys all the OOC games and KU, ISU. You'll find a way to beat somebody else...which makes a not bad 6 wins!
