WVU redzone defense is lacking big time »

Interesting stat so far this year is that every time an opponent has reached West Virginia’s Red Zone, within the 20 yard line, we’ve given up a touchdown. Seven times to be exact. This is something that we will have to fix before Maryland and we only have 3 practice days to fix this. Hopefully [...]

First Impressions: WVU vs. Marshall »

I jumped the gun slamming the WVU/Marshall game. Marshall played a great WV style football game, my hats off to “little brother”. Their defense was impenetrable in the first half, Slaton only had 3 yards at the end of the 2nd quarter, and Marshall had the lead going into the locker room half way [...]

Louisville dodges a bullet… #8??? »

Weather: Little too warm for my liking for a tailgate but [...]

WVU, so good it’s boring? »

I’ve been reading a lot of commentary about the opening season today and have noticed something. It seems the story has gotten old. WVU has become so good and so consistent, there we aren’t “good story” for reporters anymore.
Last night on ESPN they were doing a run down of the top 10 college plays of [...]

Mountaineers Season Opener: First Impressions »

It was a great day of tailgating and football in Morgantown, WV yesterday. I’m back at the house, and recovering from a long day of sun and beer and pepperoni rolls.
I didn’t get to see all of the first half but my fist impressions are that we have a solid team that is going to [...]
