Mountaineers' Worst Five Losses During The Holgorsen Era - Last Word on College Football

 

[Mac_Bridger]

Brings to mind a question. What is the worst loss in WVU history?

To me, the opening day loss to Purdue under Nehlen is the worst. That Purdue team would only win one other game.

Nothing can top 13-9

Nope,

Most PAINFUL.. sure (though the ND loss in the NC game was its equal imo) but Pitt football > Kansas football, far worse loss was to KU imo.

The KU loss only proved that Ollie screwed up by bringing in Holgerson and running Stew out of town

We were 28.5 pt favorites over Pitt.

We were 7 pt faves over KU.

Shows how far wvu football had fallen under luck and Holgorsen that we were 7 point favored over Kansas. Spitt football at their worst is head and shoulders better than Kansas

It was the last game of the season and they were beyond beatup...and the game was in Lawrence...the PITT game was by far the worst loss in programs history...I would suggest

I would suggest this loss was worse than Kansas...

All they had to do was punt the ball to win the game....

Yeah... the ‘13 season was a mess. Billy Stewart left the cupboard so bare, Dana had barely enough kids to field a team by the end of the season.

Thank the lord we had Luck... who was smart enough to fire Billy and hire Dana. Can you imagine what our program would have looked like with Billy and his anemic offense playing in the Big 12?

Dana put WVU football back into the national limelight.

I am not convinced and I am sure that DAD would agree. While Dana brought offensive innovation, recruiting sagged, and the Defense sucked most years. Looking at the records of Dana, I believe that HCBS would have had similar success in the B12. He may have even been able to beat Oklahoma... again.

Recruiting sagged? How so?

He couldn’t recruit a full class and signed a large number of kids who never made it to Morgantown. Once Doc took the Marshall job, he was in bad shape recruiting.

Wv is about to have 6 kids get drafted...its NEVER happened in Wv football history...

But the team could only muster up 8 wins with all that talent.

When you look at the recruiting rankings for both coaches, HCBS takes the crown.

Since DAD is a lying sack of shit, I guess it makes sense to use recruiting rankings.

Another Finau sighting...

pot, meet kettle.............BB can't back up his BS with facts, so returns to namecalling

With the defense WVU played under coach Stewart, we may well have won the B12, in case you forgot, Holgorsen's best year at WVU was with those bare cupboard bums...........

THAT speaks volumes about the lack of effective coaching that was taking place, loads of talent, but our strength program and work ethic were sorely lacking......
