Pass defense is a four-letter word to the Mountaineers

The saying goes "a win is a win is a win." Can't disagree. This was about as ugly of a win as I can recall in my 64 years of following Mountaineer football.
There were two Arizona touchdown passes where there was not a Mountaineer defender within 5-10 yards of the receiver. (Those don't include the
Arizona TD pass into the end zone where our defender fell). On one of the two TD mentioned earlier - we had two defenders who were not on any Arizona play
while the pass went to a guy wide open in the middle of the field.
AND don't forget the guy who was wide open near the side line late in the game who dropped a certain TD pass.
Indeed a win is a win is a win. But the gross errors noted above have happened in every game this year. And no adjustments have been made to the pass coverages. There I feel better now.

Pick'm Week 9

I don't have much to say about KSU, that has not already been said. Except look at the BIGXII standings and think what could have been. For those going, enjoy AZ and the views.

27 games on the slate this week. First game THUR 10/24 7:30PM Tie breaker, total points scored WVU vs AZ. LGM.
