GAME THREAD West Virginia football vs. Kansas

[jlaudiomaster]

I see Coach Brown has never defended the option offense before…

 

[EERs 3:16]

awful.......

I mean this is just sad

 

[MountaineerWV]

THEY.....HAVE....QUIT.


That is FOUR consecutive TD drives we have given up.

 

[jlaudiomaster]

Play prevent defense in first half, didn’t work. Come out in the second half doing the same thing.

 

[deedoubleyou]

Soft soft defense. Its Kansas, we are at home and they are taking it to us. The D looks gassed and uninterested.

 

[EERs 3:16]

The defense is getting worked by KU and there's no excuse for it....none.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Brown has realized he is in over his head. You can see it in his face. And his players know it too.

 

[mountaineermaniac34]

Defense is garbage

 

[Panhandleer]

We're in trouble, and not just tonight.

 

[jlaudiomaster]

Need to bring 5-6 and light up that QB. If he makes plays, so be it. He’s doing just fine right now with our help.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Play prevent defense in first half, didn’t work. Come out in the second half doing the same thing.

Maybe we don't want to tip our hand to Towson? Might be our only win this year.

 

[GoWVU]

If we lose this game looking like THIS, Lyons needs to fire this bum coach before he can even get back into the locker room

 

[MountaineerWV]

Defense is garbage

Looked decent last week. Got pressure. Secondary wasn't awful.

 

[MountaineerWV]

We look MUCH SLOWER than Kansas on offense, defense, and special teams. That's sad.

 

[jlaudiomaster]

I think it’s Xs and Os tonight. Not Jimmys and Joes

 

[MountaineerWV]

I've said it for a dozen years, but WVU needs a QB like what KU has. Mobile, Gives the defense fits. Having statues standing back there doing fake read options isn't fooling anyone.

 

[Panhandleer]

Defense needs a stop now.

 

[EERs 3:16]

This game just gets dumber and dumber

 

[deedoubleyou]

Neal Brown has the team fired up and ready to play in the second half.

 

[Panhandleer]

Get a break on the spot and special teams go stupid.

 

[mountaineermaniac34]

Absolutely terrible tackling

 

[Panhandleer]

Neal Brown should be toast, win or lose this one.

 

[The Bell Tolls for Thee]

Even if we eek this out, it should still count as a loss on the ledger of how Neal is doing as a coach.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Can we agree. This team needs a new leader at the top. The players aren't/don't respond to Brown.

 

[deedoubleyou]

 

[MountaineerWV]

Even if we eek this out, it should still count as a loss on the ledger of how Neal is doing as a coach.

What gives you any hope we eek this out? Fact is....KU looks BETTER than we do.

 

[mountaineermaniac34]

A running back fumbles the ball, and is being hit by three defensive players, and is able to run and jump on the ball tells you everything about how bad we tackle.

 

[jlaudiomaster]

At this point in the season, WVU is not a good or complete football team.

At this point in the climb, we are not a good program.

 

[deedoubleyou]

 

[deedoubleyou]

 

[MountaineerWV]

Mathis Jr. benched? Or Hurt?

 

[Rootmaster]

Climb?

 

[MountaineerWV]

Mathis Jr. had a hole large enough to walk in to endzone.....and gets 8 yards. WTF?

 

[EERs 3:16]

Grind, grind, grind and hope you can win on the final possession

 

[deedoubleyou]

I would've never guessed Kansas would be leading going into the 4th.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Does anyone think our defense can get a stop?

 

[jlaudiomaster]

Does anyone think our defense can get a stop?

Yes, if we attack. No, if we keep playing prevent defense.

 

[OlegeezEER]

We need to be running an offense like Kansas is running. There is a lot of variation in it. We have had success in the past running offenses similar to it. The years we have run the air raid just haven't produced the results we wanted in the W/L column.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Yes, if we attack. No, if we keep playing prevent defense.

We blitzed the last possession. Got a punt. Muffed it. Then quit. I don't have any confidence. Stills has been non-existent tonight.

I've been saying that since 2011.
