tough loss

- Start date
Being a WVU fan is perpetual torture. We suck. It doesn't even bother me anymore, you become numb to the **** like you know what's about to happen lol
Since when did WVU print diplomas with the name "Marshall" on it? Yeah, it does suck especially when you suppose to have one of the biggest offense geniuses in the game and still struggling to land that quarterback who will lead WVU to the promise land. I still remember when 9 wins weren't good enough for Bill Stewart. Dana has had plenty of time. I still favor Dana being the head coach but time has to be dwindling down.
Dude that is not your mom an dad's Oklahoma. That being said, WVU is a very good team. I predict only one more loss along the way.
Are you now saying that you didn't go to Marshall? The silly comparison of the Big 12 and Big East surfaces after every loss. I doubt that there are many fans who think that Stewart along with his coaching staff would be having 9 game winning seasons in the Big 12. When you can come up with the name of a coach who will likely get us a win against Oklahoma in Norman OK, maybe then we can seriously consider your suggestion that a coaching change will soon be needed. And Doc Holliday doesn't qualify in my opinion.
So Stewart coaching rich rods team for one big win against a mediocre ou team like 9 years ago is enough evidence to say he would be more successful in the big 12 now? The schedule Stewart went against was a joke compared to what Dana has faced. Wvu is about to play 4 ranked teams in a 4 game span, who are all undefeated (3 in the top 10). That never came close to happening in the big east. Didnt Dana win the big east and stomp Clemson in the bcs bowl in his only opportunity in the big east?
Oklahoma isn't winning 47 straight anytime soon (no one will) but they still have top ten talent and a good coaching staff. They have only lost 7-8 times in Norman since 1999.
You do realize you are talking about teams who REGULARLY lost to Southern Florida and Syracuse, right?
Hell, the same eam that beat Oklahoma also lost 13-9 to Pitt...remember that one?
Wow...
I said at the start of the season OU and WVU would be the two best teams. I still believe that. TCU has been decimated on defense but still very good on offense. Baylor isnt as good as they were last year with Petty and there defense struggles. SMU put 21 on them and Lamar put 31 points on them. OSU has no running game.
Now that Skyler has a conference game under his belt he should settle in ok. Go Kick some Puke's ***

Do you support the Nazi Mentality or do you support a free society? Not everyone has to agree on everything, people are allowed to have opinions, no matter if you agree or disagree with them. Are you the type of person who demands celebrities to apologize when they speak out on something that you disagree with? Suppression of free speech is killing this country and one of the big reasons behind it is political correctness. PC doesn't imply in this instance but you still seem to be a supporter of suppressing opinions if they don't go along with the status quo or majority opinion.
And even if I did not attend WVU (I did), why would it even matter? You do know that most West Virginians don't attend college yet many are WVU fans, right? For the longest time, being from WV and attending college was a bigger hassle as people could land jobs straight out of high school that paid as much or more than many of those who do graduate from college without the burden of paying back loans and making money faster. With the coal industry taking monster hits left and right from the EPA, natural gas, etc.....things are slowly changing. And you do know that many of those who do attend other colleges in West Virginia (including Marshall) are also WVU fans, right? I have several friends who graduated Marshall who are die hard WVU fans. There use to be a guy who was a regular poster on here that went to Marshall but was a die hard WVU fan but intolerable folks like you deterred him away from posting. He rarely posts on here now.
Facts: 1) That Oklahoma team was ranked #3 in both the AP and coaches' poll on selection Sunday in 2007. 2) The Sooners won the Big 12 and were the #4 rated BCS team. 3) "Mediocre" opponents don't achieve those things.
While the Clemson bowl win was awesome, the reality is that Holgorsen did exactly what Stewart did: Win a BCS game with somebody else's players, but go 5-2 in Big East conference play each year. We're all grateful that the tiebreaker worked out favorably in 2011, but you can't imply that Holgorsen ran roughshod through the league because that simply isn't true.
Facts: The ou team that played wvu was a shell of its regular season self. Injuries and suspensions decimated the roster. The team that played in that fiesta bowl was mediocre by ou's standards. And Stewart didn't do the same thing as holgorsen. Stewart only coached 1 game that season, while rich rod coached the team all the way up to the fiesta bowl. Dana coached the whole season and the bowl win.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You do know there are videos on the interweb thingy that show the Fiesta Bowl and OU's regular season games and you can easily compare and see they played the Fiesta Bowl with all of their starters, right?
"shell of its regular season self" - that's why all the talking heads predicted OU to win, right? That's why Lee Corso said "it wouldn't even be close", right? That's why many talking heads said "they were the best team in the country", right?

You sure bout that, Red?
Starters who did not play off the top of my head...Demarco Murray (dislocated knee cap), Demarcus granger 5* DT(suspended for stealing a coat from Burlington coat factory), Malcolm Kelly NFL wr, Reggie smith NFL db, Lendy Holmes 4* db who was academically ineligible..
I don't put much faith in guys like lee Corso to do their research. Most sooner fans knew that wvu was grossly underrated going into that game too.
Nobody said otherwise. My original statement was 100% true: They both won a BCS game with somebody else's players, and they both went 5-2 in Big East play each season.
If that Oklahoma team was "mediocre", then I have some land to sell you.
