"I thought taunting before you cross the goal line negated a score," Herman said. "I've got to brush up on my rules and get some questions answered."

Seems like Herman is already understanding the expectation that refs should always keep Texas in the game.

I don't think holding the ball up like Grier did before he crossed the goal line is taunting but it is pointless. You're going to be in the endzone in a second anyway, why bother unnecessarily moving the ball around?

As for the taunting after the TD, why do it? What point does it serve (other than give UT a better chance to win)? Why not just go celebrate with your teammates?

While I agree entirely with both points, I don’t see either as so agregious as to deserve the refs’ attention.

And this dude would be happy about winning a game over one of the weakest ideas for a penalty in football history? What a baby he is, and the entire TX team.... you just cant even begin to respect such a group of weaklings. I feel bad for their fans to have such a spineless coach who wants a win handed to him over something so lame. They obviously had the refs in their pocket, and we beat them anyway. With a competent group of neutral refs, we win by 2 TDs easy.

WV at the end received the benefit of doubt on most calls.

Like I have said the Big XII officials are incompetent more than biased.

If the officials wanted Texas to win do you really think they would have reviewed the spot of the field on the 4th down play or they would have reviewed the spot of the ball on the Andrew Beck third down play.
Close to half of his body was across the line but they called it 4th down.


All sports have become scripted to some point.
In CFB the Big XII is the worse.
Not even close. This is what people are upset with.

If a player scores on a play then it is a matter of timing on if this penalty is called and if score counts or not. Just like a holding call or block in the back.

If the player “taunts” while still in the field of play then a penalty can be called which would nullify the score.

Celebrating a touchdown after you have crossed the goal line will still result in a touchdown with a penalty that will be assessed on the point after or the ensuing kickoff.

Rule 9-2-1d lists eight examples of violations, ranging from “Pointing the finger(s), hand(s), arm(s) or ball at an opponent” to “Going into the stands to interact with spectators, or bowing at the waist after a good play.”

The spot of the violation is not reviewable via instant replay. Officials must determine when ruling whether a player crosses the goal line before celebrating.

I saw none of this by WVU. No celebration occurred before crossing the goal line. Herman is mad because we went for 2 and beat him.

His helmet came off so the ball was dead and thus the play as well. Go take your Texas crap and yourself to a hole and horns down. Cry baby.

Never seen so much crying over a winning conversion in all my life. So horns up must be legal. Grow a pair of balls.

His helmet didn't come off till the end of the play.
Point is WV was suppose to win the game. It is very obvious at the end.

Like I said the real issue is that at the end of the day WV cannot pull a national audience by themselves.

Hopefully one day they can.
Even if everyone in WV watches their football game the ratings of their game will be horrible.

At the end of the day football is a popularity contest that people vote on.
Even with the CFP.

Your a dick but you continue to post here. Don't you have a Texas board? National Audience? WVU sold the place out for you. Largest crowd. Take your jealous arse elsewhere. WVU 42-Texas hornies 41. You lose a-hole. The helmet comes off the play is dead. He wasn't across the line as his hip touches before the line. Continue crying and getting your panties in a wad. Perhaps your mommy should wipe your butt and change your diaper.

You have to accept reality...

The reality is WV needs to grow their brand and fanbase
1) The Big XII stays together and WV becomes an important team to the conference
2) The Big XII fails and WV gets thrown another life raft.

Point is unless WV grows their brand and fanbase neither will happen.

You were put on FS1 again for a 11 am /12 Eastern start.

If WV cannot pull a bigger audience than before the game the Big XII will rethink their decision

Texas hasn't been the king in quite some time

Texas is still the King in revenue and it is no where close but they may end up like ND.

ND's decline started because they weren't the only show in town on the National Scene anymore starting in the late 80's and early 90's.

The state of Texas is the most fertile ground from recruiting to fans and the University of Texas is not the only show in town anymore due to the SEC.

The SEC is pretty much Public Enemy #1 of the Big XII.
Reason why WV fans should no longer watch SEC football.
Because Texas will abandon the Big XII in a minute if it felt its throne threatened.

Losers always want to talk about anything but the game. Also, moron, no one can pull a national audience by themselves. It takes two teams. No one but a few team fans watch televised spring games.

But if we’re going to talk about something other than the game itself let’s talk about what losers you and your team are. Let’s create a list of things losers do:

1) Cry to the league that down horns should be a penalty. ✅

2) Cry about the other team’s player taunting before a touchdown. ✅

3) Refuse to shake winning teams hands after loss. ✅

4) Cry about penalties when the other team was penalized twice as many times for twice as many yards (WVU 14/120 Tx 7/64). ✅

5) Have fans who rather than congratulate the other team’s fans on a win in one of the best games of the season would rather talk TV ratings smack. ✅

6) Have an open racist as your biggest booster (http://www.dailytexanonline.com/opi...rong-show-racial-tension-is-alive-and-well-at). ✅

Texas—losers on and off the field.

You are taking this a little too far out there

You really don't get it....
Texas has offers from every conference on the table right now.
Everything in the Big XII is coming to an end at the same time.
Either Texas stays or go. Without Texas the Big XII doesn't exist.
So like I said television ratings are important.
Don't be so insecure. It is the truth and not trash talking at all.

Just take your toys and leave. But the issue is Texas would be nothing in the SEC. Just one voice of the many. Texas really likes to lord over people from their perceived high horse. Texas is the reason the league lost teams. It is like my brother always said, No matter how good looking a woman is, there is a guy out there who is tired of her ****. Well there are 9 other members who are tired of Texas's ****. You lose and you are going to leave? What kind of BS is that. You are not relevant and have not been since WVU joined the league. Get over yourself because you are nothing.
Congrats on your athletic budget, TV ratings and 5 star recruits. Now shut up and sit down.

I don't know what is best for UT in the long run but realistically they have as many if not more options than any other school. Literally any conference would take them and on top of that they're probably big enough to be independent like Notre Dame if they wanted.

Even big names like USC or Michigan or Penn State don't have those options. USC can't get into a midwestern or eastern conference and Michigan and Penn State can't get into the Pac 10. But Texas, being in the middle of the country, could get into any conference it wants.

Of course, they couldn't dictate the terms and would have to give and take on the negotiations, but they could get into any of them.

It is not about the loss....

Texas has been stuck in mud since 2012....
I wonder why.
Put the pieces together.
They have been attempting to replace the teams who left by their own choice.
Colorado because they always wanted to be in the Pac and the rest because of revenue issues.

Problem with the Big XII is the schools and the states they are in and not Texas.

Don't kid yourself that television ratings are that important.
If Texas has offers please leave.
Big 12 ending matters how?
With Texas the Big 12 still isn't existing. You have sucked for the last 10 years.

Texas will fail in other conferences. Oh wait, they're failing in Big 12 as well.
Texas controls the money and reigns in Big 12. They leave they won't control anything.

You don't like losing we get that. You especially don't like losing when you pay top dollar for the calls you want.

I heard a rumor earlier this year that Texas was back. I guess it's not true.

Your narrative doesn't work because at the end of the day WV won.
So if the refs were wanting Texas to win they would have thrown a flag on WV's last touchdown.

You can call a penalty on every play in football.
Plus there was a false start on the play as the OT was not fully set on the snap.

Point is in the United States you must capitalize on any chance you get.

Iowa State is probably in the worse position out of all Big XII schools and they understand this.
WV's situation is not much better.
The Big XII is given WV the chance to become a big brand in CFB.

You must have forgot the 3 BCS wins. WVU has a brand and it adds to the B12. If it makes you feel superior to try and talk down to other fan bases, have at it. We will just keep kicking your *** in football and basketball while you talk about our lack of brand and how we better bow down to the Texas. Your ignorance is boundless.

It is hard to be insecure about all thing UT. You lost, we won and you are on our board. The insecurity is on you weather you see it or not. But your ignorance is blinding.
