I see two pretty even offenses,but WVU has a much better defense. We will see how the home crowd favors OSU, but I think if WVU can manage to hold onto the ball, we win handily, 49-31???? I hate to get too excited too soon about WVU sports, heartbreak usually follows when I get too fired up.......Gooooooo Mounties!!

Never a truer statement.

Ain’t nobody gonna be nervous Saturday! Be sure of that...

 

[Slaton10]

WVU 52
Okie St 24

I was thinking the same thing...I think Wv makes some splash plays on Defense...and the RB's win the day...

 

[DCWV4life]

Okie St Dline can be a real force in this game...I think that is the biggest match our o line vs their d line....we win that battle and I think we will be in good position.

 

[Mac_Bridger]

LOTS of money is going on WVU in this one. So, I tend to think OSU at least beats the spread. A late score gives WVU the win. 34-31

The boys on ESPN picking Okie St to win... well... all except former Heisman winner Desmond.

Them boys must be thinking our current Heisman candidate gonna suck again today.

 

[WVUDAD]

With both Oklahoma and Texas alive for the B12 title game, I am VERY interested to see how the WVU-OKST game, the Texas-IAST game, and the OU-Kansas games are officiated today, you have to figure the league is drooling to have OU-Texas in the CCG..........Officiating needs to be taken out of the leagues hands and the NCAA take over the task

That IAST loss has got a lot of folks down on us away from home, they remember that one, but forget the win at Texas.....

 

[WVUDAD]

Well, there was the heartbreak.....got to root for Texas tonight!!!!!

 

[ralphiewvu]

There is no excuse for this. That defense was piss poor terrible. WTF is Gibson doing? That shit RB they have ran on us all night, we got absolutely no pressure on the faggot lurch and the secondary was 10 yards back on every short pass. What the fuck is that dumbass idiot Gibson doing?

An can someone hit Spavital in the dixk for his bubble screen shit he calls? That’s ridiculous.

 

[Anotherwvufan]

Injuries on the OL, and LB hurt but losing a 17 point lead really hurt.

B12 officiating going from making lots of bad calls to no calls. What happened to pass interference?

Bottom line is that coaching failed. Better calls on offense and defense would have overcome our injuries. Grundy made adjustments at half and we had no answer. Our play calling was very predictable.

 

[GoldRusher]

1st half Dana breaks the golden rule as set by Bill Parcells years ago. Take the 3 early and let it win you the game later. No, not our boy Dana, gotta go for it on 4th down in the 1st half...with a lead and..QB sneak Will Grier cause we are GRRRREEAT at short yardage run plays .

Oh and when we get DEEP into the red zone early 2nd half with McKoy having a career day, lets get cute and run Will on an option which we should NEVER EVER do and give up on 3 more chip shot points..
Guess what, dumb decisions costs your team ballgames.

Boys its like a broken record, Dana has been doing the same dumb sh*t for years now. Its not even a surprise anymore.

Its honestly time for WVU to quietly start the search for Dana's replacement. He just isnt the creme de la creme

Could not agree more

 

[bbwvfan]

WVU is in control of its own destiny of a Big 12 championship.

Get it this Friday...
