Paper...................I sure have missed you around here. Where you been? Michigan? Not! You never showed up for work!
We won. We're unbeaten. Not many teams can say that.
Serious problems with kicking game, so much so that we pooch kicked the last 2 kickoffs.
Defense hot and cold, but twice saved our ass when it counted the most.
Orlosky was pissed at Skylar on that fumble.
BYU had more yards and more first downs than WVU, but turnover margin favored WVU by 2, and that won the game.

The defense made a couple good plays.
The last interception was a good defense play. The one before that was luck...but that's ball.
White's drop was big.
The 4 & 1 in the Pistol drove me nuts. That's on Dana, terrible call.

Dana has to quit telling White to drop a pass on the numbers and seriously call a cluster snap from the 3. Shoulda won by 10 easily but it's on the players not Dana. Some of you are just too stupid to not allow your hatred for all things Dana to see what happened.
Good win. Now take our 3-0 record on to Big 12 play.

In the post game a couple players said that they put the fumbled snap in this week just for BYU.

We won! There were enough mistakes to go around for everyone. For the most part, the offense moved the ball well except for Dana calling for his wide receiver to drop a first down reception and a botched snap when he could have iced the game. The defense was pushed around but never quit. There have been some crazy happenings in college football this season. In spite of the mistakes, we are 3-0 headed into B-12 play. We should enjoy it while we can.
wow 27 - 26 in first downs. 40 more yards than WVU. Amazing. Sometimes you are too quirky.
Compared to our 2012 defense, like the 85 Bears. They'll improve as the season plays out. They always have under Gibson.
Also, we are missing pieces on both O and D.
No idea why DH is running shotgun at the 2 with game 99% in hand, or why there is a possibility of an audible. Get under center, hand if off 3 times, we get in its over, if we don't get in they have to score a TD with no timeouts in about a minute, a massive task for most college teams who don't have big armed NFL QBs going against 8 DBs
Lol the defense didnt bail dana out. It gave up 32 points. If anything, the offense bailed them out. Giving up 32 points often equals a loss.
I would normally agree with you but on Saturday the offense looked a lot better than the defense did for most of the game. A couple of opportunistic turnovers covered over what was otherwise a very poor performance by the defense. BYU moved the ball at will most of the time and only a poor decision by their QB at the end of the game prevented a loss. Our offense, with the exception of the fumbled snap, looked very good for most of the game. The game plan was solid and when executed, looked great.
You mean the guy that is the position coach of the worst group on defense? Our 5 LB's that played against BYU had a total of 13 tackles for the game of which only 3 were solo tackles. No solo tackles from our MLB Benton. That Coach Gibson?
You managed to send a post that makes the call (which, really, it was nothing more than a mix up between two players) look like a proclamation by Albert Einstein (if you don't recognize the name, look it up on the internet, presuming you have a third grader in the house to lead the effort.)
This will likely be the "barest" cupboard we have on defense for a while. Lots of new parts. Green 2nd team DL. Personnel-wise, this is the worst group we've had since 2012...and that's saying a lot.
I like Gibson's approach. I think he wants to blitz more, but he doesn't (and shouldn't) trust this group of CBs being 1 on 1 with a WR. At some point (not this week), he will have to bring it and pray we get there quick enough for a sack or a bad throw/INT. That is about as good as we're going to get this season on defense. Losing Worley was a friggin killer.
Correct about Worley. But, losing Askew-Henry and Ferns have hurt pretty badly. Henry may have ben able to cover up for some of the Worley loss, especially by allowing Tyler to also be in the backfield at the same time.
Damn, son....did you even read this thread? I posted this well before that fumble, which was (IMO) on the QB for signaling a snap and not being aware of the ball coming.
I wrote this after the INT that bailed out that God awful, 10 seconds to develop, QB "sneak" from a shotgun snap on 4th and inches when everyone on the team was already in the back field and had baked a cake by the time he got close to the line of scrimmage.
Reading is fundamental. Try it sometime.
