I have not seen 1 WVU snap this year, cause I just went on about living my life. Are they that bad? Does Austin Kendall suck?

They looked good against NC State at home, but the pack are pretty shitty this year (along with the whole ACC). Mizzou beat the fuck out of them.

Kendall is good at quick timing stuff, but his long ball is godawful.

Running backs are solid. Might be their best position.

Their secondary is crazy young and thin. Eagles and DevDuv should feast.

predict kickoff line will be down to -6.5.

vegas is stupid.  aggy biting on 3-score lines makes vegas think the entire state is batshit.

They give up 172 rush yards a game.

[Jersey Man10 3562]

I assume they'll have a similar game plan like okie state. We should win...unless we keep shooting ourselves in the foot.

[Sgt Hulk 13934]

What’s the line on at least 2 Herman specials and the Orlando tax?  Their strongest position. Is the run and no one runs on us 

[TexasMan 10992]

2 years ago, Toniel Carter was the star of the game in Morgantown.

We've come a long way. 

[mdmost 43081]

Maybe we beat them by 11 points.

Trap game. And we play down to our competition in the big 12. Prove me wrong texas

 

we win by less than 10

no clear pattern at all.  i wouldn't touch this line either way.

[maninblack 7974]

Think we'll cover that

[Hagbard Celine 10969]

we should, but parcells.

Texas will rip their arm off and beat them to death with it.

You stay outta this Horn80, this isnt about you...

[sushihorn 3233]

Seems a bit low based on results.  I'll wait a bit to see if the pessimists drive it under 10.  If so I'm giving the points.

Lmao -6.5? We are going to fuck this team, and it isn't a night game in MoTown. -11 is being generous to Mountain aggy.

burnt orange money is not falling for the banana in the tailpipe at -11

[perfectchaos007 6679]

If our special teams is just AVERAGE we should win comfortably

We owe these fuckers an epic beat down. Make it happen Herman.

[Texasborn91 973]

Easy money 

[texasstrong12 4668]

This game should be won in the trenches. 

WV is starting a true freshman at NT and a Sophomore at DE. The interior OL is also all underclassmen with 2 RS FR. They're young on both sides of the lines. 5/ 8 of their starters on the lines are underclassmen.

Already seeing some books have it at -10

[Poolflood 845]

We're winning by 3 touchdowns.

It may end up a little closer if they go hard after we pull the starters, but we will be way out in front in Q3

With the proper focusness, we will rip off their heads and shit down their noses.

[Horn Dog 9989]

Taking my son to the game  for his bday.  Hoping for a Mountaineer beat down...and to make it out alive.

31-24 wouldn't surprise me and neither would 44-17. I guess I'd bet the -11 if you made me choose.

Etsablish the run game with Ro Jo, Ingram and Sam and we'll be just fine. WV has a terrible rush defense this year.

[PittsburghTiger 6226]

I wish all of you who will venture to Morganhole safe travels. I’d be there with you but I will be at Pitt v Duke.

i hope you destroy them.

[Mossyhorn 143]

Glad we have so much depth in the secondary. We’re pretty beat up

[TexasMan 10992]

Checked the line again and it's at -10.5. It keeps hovering around the 10-11 range, which give me confidence that Texas will cover. 

[Mossyhorn 143]

Just a few stats to mull over (yes, I know we’ve played two, top-10 offenses. Just raw numbers):

Total Offense:

Texas, #19 (497.8 ypg); WV, #118 (326);

Scoring Offense:

Texas, #13 (41.8 ppg), WV, #94 (25);

Total Defense:

Texas, #102 (436.5), WV, #56 (374);

Scoring Defense:

both tied at #62, (25.5 ppg).  

Turnover Margin:

Texas, #34 (+.5), WV, #50 (+.25);

Net Punting:

Texas, #102 (35.75), WV, #79 (37.36);

Punt Returns:

Texas, #130, dead last (-.63), WV, #59, (8.8).

Texas didn’t lose to Okie State & fumbled 2 punts away. If we lose this game, it will be on total breakdown in ST play, penalties, & turnovers. It could happen. We need to stay humble.

As long as the Horns don't turn the ball over multiple times, Texas wins this one going away. The score will be much like the osu score should have been. I would say 38-17 sounds about right.

[gecko 1104]

It would take a ST meltdown like 2019 OSU + a referee rip-job like 2015 OSU to lose this game......so WVU certainly has a chance.
