Wv 45 OU 42

I think the defense builds off second half performance vs Maryland ....WVU 38 OU 24

 

[Bat 20]

WVU 41 OU 39 in 2OT

We lose because Stoops burns all 3 of his time outs in the first half and Dana only burns 2.

WVU 41 OU 39 in 2OT

So WVU gets a safety in OT??

 

[GoldRusher]

I'm torn here, I feel like if OU pulls away early then Dana and Co. Will go desperate/high risk and the game will get out of hand and OU wins a blowout. On the other hand, if we get up early and some defensive mistakes from last week got corrected then the mountain witch may be out on an early fall night Morgantown. A lot of homer heart in this pick but.... WTH

WVU 28
OU 24

Hum... Might! WVU has scored a safety in the last two games.

I'd like to see that, but not against my team.
Push a team back 75 yards in 3 plays, then a safety on 4th down.

Could happen.

 

[Mac_Bridger]

The entire ESPN College Gameday crew (except Corso) picked WVU to upset OU... These are the same guys that said WVU would be lucky to win 3 games this year...

I was thinking a fluke bad snap kicked out of the back of the endzone.

Quick...jump on the bandwagon.

Hell... we have a poster who said he'd be surprised if WVU won more than 4 games again this year. Then he bitches about the way the team beat a favored Maryland last week. SMH...

 

[Mac_Bridger]

Well, if Corso had picked us we'd lose for sure. Just remember, I picked us to win this before the season began.

But with all due respect, he claims to be the #1 Mountaineer fan when it is convenient. Remember, we are the delusional ones. It's everybody else, not him. A voice of reason in these troubling times in Mountaineer football.

Wow, I have no idea what the hell I was trying to predict there, so I guess I'll stay with the safety. There is a lesson here, don't post while on the phone with the boss while at work

 

[Scapegoat]

Good game. White is a beast. I sure wish you would have beat bama. It sucks that you're 2-2. Good luck the rest of the way.

OBSESS MUCH???????? WOW, yes BB, when WVU damn near gives away a game due to errors that will causes losses later in the season I will bitch. This OU game turned on a special team error, that run back gave OU a serious shot in the arm, the ST gaffes are killing momentum.

In all fairness poor play calling by OU helped keep WV in the game also. If OU would have just lined up in the jumbo package with two tightends and a fullback in the I formation they could have scored inside the 20.

Indeed, OU made effective adjustments at the half, WVU, AGAIN, did not.

Convenience has nothing to do with it, I am a WVU fan and alumni, and I want to see the team I root for do as well as they can, and I do not think the current HC is up to the job. I love America as well, but do not think Obama is the right man to be president. Not liking the way these two men are doing their jobs does not mean a person in any way cheers against WVU or America.

I see where you are coming from, BUT I'm not sure there was much they could have done. OK is looking like a National Champion.

Bama killed FL, MD killed Cuse, OK is a special team this year I think. This has been a rough schedule to start the season. I think MD will surprise a few teams this year also. I think this team barring major injuries will surprise a few people also.

Trotter from ESPN was sending love WVU's way after the game. You don't see much of that from anyone at ESPN.


Rank 4 in the Big 12 power rankings
The Mountaineers have to be the best 2-2 team in the country, with both of their losses coming against top-5 opponents. West Virginia's defensive front just had no answer for Perine or Oklahoma's experienced and powerful offensive line. Yet despite the two losses, there's a lot to like about this West Virginia team, which could inflict plenty of damage the rest of the way in the Big 12 with the firepower that quarterback Clint Trickett and receivers Kevin White and Mario Alford bring.
