GAME THREAD West Virginia football at Pittsburgh
- Thread starter Keenan Cummings
- Start date
Felt the energy disappear when BFW let the ball slip through his fingers for a pick 6.
The right side giving up a huge sack at the end was terrible as well. Can we just agree that Nestor is terrible. ???
I wonder what that last Grier team would have looked like with Kneel as coach. We definitely would have lost that Texas game. That was Dana's greatest moment as a coach and I'm including the Orange Bowl win. Clemson had no answers for the jet sweep, but that Texas game took some balls.
" Hey...you want to win this game?" Is an all time classic. One of the few times I was truly proud of having Dana as our coach.
We would have been at midfield, so the fire drill would have been in full progress had he come down with that.

Beating Texas with Geno was a good one as well.
Regarding DH vs NB, I was always lukewarm on DH and out on him following his final loss to OU. Had he stayed this program would have followed a similar probably less disastrous trajectory. They both weren’t the guy, but overall DH has a superior resume to NB. That much is undeniable at this stage.
Hey you can blame BFW for the ball slipping out of his hands, but he should have NEVER been in that situation. 4th and .5 yards and his concern about his job tried to make the other team bail him out for making a mistake. He decided to let the opponent decide the game and he lost. This was the wort decision by a WVU coach in 20-30+ years because of his insecurity. Neal is a coward trying to suck out as much as he can before he becomes an assistant in the MWC. Loser mentality. No climb is trusted. Horrible, weak, pansy, loser, decision. LOSER MENTALLY AND LOSER AGENDA
Would be nice but it ain't happening for 2 more years. You can thank our AD for that move.
Yeah you tell em. Maybe you should hire a sniper and knock him off and put us all out of our misery!
He's not my AD. I formally renounced the Shame Lyings/Kneel Clown regime...
Why is it so hard to have a coach that can beat Pitt AND not be a Marxist?
I feel like this should be easier...

We need Kendrick and other big boosters to start getting that money ready to bring GOAT Rod back home.
We can thank idiots like you who kept declaring NB the next coming, excuse away his mistakes and libeled a coach who won more games than anyone outside Nehlen And pushed it all over social media pushing change to the leadership of WVU athletics. You can’t win with stupid supporters who push out quality coaching in place of their warped idea of “fit.”
I don't even think Donaldson was the right call there. QB sneak. If you are afraid for JT after the QB sneak TD that may have injured his shoulder, put any of the back ups in there.
When you’re averaging 7.78 yards per rush, the options are endless.
Quick count sneak would've been the best call, I agree. But Donaldson couldve probably got it as well. We have to see a lot more of this kid. He could provide the spark we need on offense tov maybe finish the season with a winning record this year.
The drops hurt us the most in this game though imo.
They are. But with that distance and situation, the QB sneak was not only the safest, but had a high percentage chance of succeeding. The game could've ended the exact same way had WVU gone for it and not gotten it as it did last night. I would not be upset about it at all because Pitt would've earned it. Instead we rolled over like an impotent, mewling kitten and then got all desperate when we realized we screwed up.
So what? We are not beating UT, OU, OK St, and Baylor, and we are at best taking 3 of VT, TCU, TT, ISU and KSU. That is 7 Ls. Maybe we steal one we shouldn’t, and maybe we drop another of the 5 winnable games. So excuse me if I’m not getting excited over the prospect of a fool’s gold 4-1 start because the schedule is front loaded with winnable games.
At this point it wouldn't bother. Especially if he brought Trickett with him.
I'm tired of almost wins. That game was a win and we snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.
Four years now and still saw the same mental mistakes, stupid penalties, turnovers and coaching bloopers as previous 3.
Thanks to Shane we are backed into a corner for the next 2 years.
We “almost” beat OU last year as well. I don’t doubt that we will be in a bunch of games, pull some out, and give some away. We just simply never dominate any team with a pulse. It’s pretty crazy how many 1 score games Brown has had with such a small sample size.
He coaches every game like it’s Troy vs LSU where he is always happy to keep the game close, rather than WVU vs OU 2007 where we might not be better overall, but we’re better in some areas and we will absolutely boat race you if you’re not ready. Throw caution to the wind and try to force the ball into the end zone at the end of the half FFS. Go and get the damn inches and then shove the ball into the end zone again to spoil your rivals banner raising night.

Yes we should of won, but we lost to a very good Pitt team and not to a bad xyz school.
I think we will rebound in a big way.
Pitt is overrated and an average WVU team proved it last night. Lucky for them they play in ACC weakling conference.
Exactly. With both being great at their previous G5 schools. Not so much at the next level up. I'm willing to pass the hat to raise money and move on from Neal.
Snatching defeat from the jaws off victory has pretty much defined Wvu since Rod left. After 15 years the natives are restless.
His style is antiquated and he hasn’t sniffed success of any note since 2014.
Totally unrelated, but just thinking about that era, it’s interesting to think back to 2006 as to what the entire college landscape would look like had Bama taken Rod over Saban. Would Saban have landed somewhere like Texas or USC and maybe the SEC wouldn’t have had that power that it does now?
You guys appear to have a QB that throws guys open. Most QBs attempt to throw to open guys. Good NFL QBs throw guys open. He is a good one if you can piece together an OL to protect him.
