GO ahead, defend this cluster.........
- Thread starter MountaineerWV
- Start date
I've said all along we can't recruit well enough to be a big 12 contender! We have a decent year once in a while and finish in the top 2 or 3 but that's it
Yep. Can't be competitive in the worst Power 5 conference out there. Think we can join the Colonial Athletic Association or the Northeast Conference?
I'd rather 2nd or 3rd in a power 5 conference than win the mac or the aac every year
We did some good things.......no doubt......but they **** themselves in 4th quarter offensively for sure.
Last year it seemed like after we beat TT 48-17 this team gained a lot of confidence and became really good. I hope the same is true this year.
Let me gues, you sleep with rubber sheets on the bed
All that really matters is WVU won the game - the record book doesn’t care how that win happened, it only cares about Ws and Ls.
It's frustrating to see little to no improvement.......forgive me for not being hyped up for 7-5 seasons.
Everybody made a big deal about not beating a ranked team in 3 years, but we have'nt had a 7- 5 season in 3 years either.
I don't know about that 7-6 in 2014, 8-5 in 2015, and 10-3 in 2016, I see steady improvement
I didn't see the game, listened to it. But that has to be among the best if not best halftime adjustments that have ever happened by a WVU team. That kind of turnaround is not accidental.
This is a nice win. Ranked opponent in conference. This will give them confidence. Good coaching by the staff.
How many ranked wins last year? Hell, under your thoughts, we should play FCS teams and go 12-0........great season!
Oh, and "real fans".....
opcorn:I don't understand how these games and losses or wins can affect people so much. I watch the games and enjoy college football, but win or lose, when it's over, it's over. It's not like the outcome is gonna pay the bills or affect my life that significantly.
Watch and enjoy. Watching is a stress relief for me. If it causes me stress, it's not enjoyable. If you can't enjoy it, then why watch? Why choose to do something you can't handle? I don't get it.

In the Big 12! That's unheard of. WVU offense and defense both cranked it up when it counted and gashed a gassed Texas Tech team with the best Mountaineer comeback since 1992.
My heart is still pumping 80 mph a day after witnessing the ambush for the final 21 minutes and singing "Country Roads" in Mountaineer Field.
It really was a great day to be a Mountaineer!!!!

Oh, and "real fans".....
We only played one FCS team last year and still had a great season.
I'm sorry that we can't win every game to make you happy. Do you hold yourself to such high standards?
Think you have it wrong. B!tching was taking place down 35-17 in 2nd half.......nobody complained about the "W".
Beating ranke teams ain't easy, only 8 teams have winning records against ranked teams, and then just barely. we are 29-107-2 all time. https://sites.google.com/site/collegefootballhistory/record-vs-ranked-teams-game-time

That sounds like a Marshall plan from a Marshall fan.
You are the exception. I used to get waaaaay more stressed & took me a long time to realize how stupid that was. I still get disappointed over a loss but no where near how I used to. i see others & think thank God I've moved on.
