- Thread starter Vernon

Should have had
Taylor & Evans on the field to block the ball down and/or block out the down field receivers.
In b12 need practice this drill, this "hail marry" drill, daily.
Both on offense & on defense.
Hind Sight is 20-20.
Beat Oklahoma State.

It is the biggest play for the game, but a mostly irrelevant play for the season. Sure an ugly win is better than a pretty loss. But regardless of the outcome of that play, the fact that the whole game came down to that play shows that WVU hasn't really improved much from the start of the season nor from last season to this season. WVU is still the team that got crushed by Penn State and barely slipped by bad Pitt and hobbled TTU. WVU is not the ascending team that beat TCU on the road. Unless we start winning games against all other opponents, not named Oklahoma, on the schedule easily, it will be hard to say that any improvement in W-L record from last year is NOT due to the dumbed down competition. And by easily I mean that a win for WVU is not in any serious doubt by midway through the 4th quarter while staying that way until the end.
What's this tell you about Pitt, TCU and Texas Tech if they couldn't beat poor ole WVU? That bad Pitt team just beat the hell out of an undefeated ranked Louisville team.
Every team in Big 12 from 3-14 is about as equal as any teams can be. I would think that's bad for Big 12.
Speaking of hobbled teams, WVU was down 3 starting players on defense and 2 starting offensive lineman. RG and RT.
Yet people only use the excuse of injured players for WVU winning when it's the opponent of WVU that's hobbled.
One thing is for sure Neal Brown has not fixed the depth problem on WVU. He might have the numbers for it but not the talent. There will be a lot of work for the next coach coming in.
