2020 Liberty Bowl - Army vs. West Virginia @ Memphis - 3pm ESPN

[texifornia 56547]

This should be fun. Army is the best they've really ever been in the modern era. The Big XII is undefeated in bowls this year and WVU throws a tremendous tailgate. Honestly, happy no matter who wins.

Well, after the chippy dogshit and pretty much attempted murder that was the Armed Forces Bowl, this has to be better.

 

 

[texifornia 56547]

Doege and Sam take "avoiding getting hit" advice from the same life coach. Just bent down so the Army LB could get a nice hit right on his helmet.

[NCMountaineer 99]

Pretty excited for this matchup. The matchup with the Vols was completely meh to me which feels weird to say, but this is a dang good Army team and something about teams well under 500 being in bowls feels very wrong.

[Horn80 6075]

Pulling for WV but how can anyone not like the Army guys that will defend America.

[NCMountaineer 99]

Army holds deep in their territory and Finkle shanks it.

The camera is giving us drunk-o-vision on NYE. Appreciate the effort.

Go army!  missed fg by WV.  Let's see if Army gives the ball back before the end of the quarter.

Yup. Welcome to a P5 DL. Hard for those undersized academy OL.

[ClubWhatever 12087]

Looks like Army’s center is going to have his hands full with the Stills bros

[NCMountaineer 99]

Doege picked on 3rd and a mile

[texifornia 56547]

Doege. No.

I fully intend to be joining it in about 15 minutes once I can close the office.

[VirginiaLonghorn 4750]

Army QB has attempted 4 ... FOUR ... passes all season?  Did I hear that correctly?

... no wonder WVU has 11 in the box.

[orangecat92 306]

Is this the set of linemen we were to be worried about during the year?  They do look great against an undersized center.

Yeah, the Stills brothers are legit

[texifornia 56547]

When WVU has Sam James and Sean Ryan on the field at WR it's just a morass of first names. But Bryce Ford-Wheaton has enough last names for everyone.

Now if they'd just quite dropping passes...

[ClubWhatever 12087]

Power lifter kicker says fuck leg day and just squeaks a 31 yarder over the bar.  In other news Doege missed a wide open TD on 3rd down.  Doege blows.  Neal Brown will be a problem if he ever gets a real QB. 

[texifornia 56547]

 

[texifornia 56547]

Well that was moronic

[orangecat92 306]

Well, #56 of WVirginia only reminds me of one player in Texas history, one Brad Shearer, All-American DL, Outland Trophy winner.  The quickness of a DL this good is what separates him, imo.  Many DL have strength, but pair it with quickness and you have Outland Trophy level, and first rounder material.  

I have no idea what Army will need to do to deal with this guy.

Darius Stills. Looks like a lot of outside runs and chipping him.

[orangecat92 306]

Who is this coach Neal Brown?  Is he another B12 coach better than Herm?  Whose coaching tree did he fall from? 

 

 

[dcar00 14036]

tell me someone has the gif of the 2 guys in the stands trying to do the double high five and low five at the same time.  big fail.

[Homercles 10205]

I’m torn here.  I love me some service academy due to their 1950s offense and that these guys will be future leaders of our defense department, but also want to see our  couch-burning brothers have a reason to celebrate.

No single mentor (if anything, Tuberville), but played for Mumme's Kentucky before transferring to UMass. Real country dude who did well at Troy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neal_Brown

He's no Austin Kendall.  I agree about Brown.  They've been respectable with pretty shitty qb play.

[RPM 26231]

Not sure Army can handle the WV air game.

I'm good with anyone from Big 12 winning a bowl game except OU.

Why the fuck is this the last football game of the day? 

Like people aren't staying home in record numbers tonight.

Arkansas - TCU was supposed to be the night game, but COVID

Greene could be a good one though he's undersized. Dude plays like he has the worlds biggest chip on his shoulder and is much more athletic than either of our other 2 this year.

Thanks - makes sense, but I am surprised that anyone decided that having simultaneous afternoon games was still the right thing to do once Arky/Fatterson was canceled. 

Maybe it was impossible to reschedule on short notice, but if so, that's still pretty poor planning by someone somewhere. 

[texifornia 56547]

Holy SHIT that was rock fucking stupid from Doege

[Jive Turkey 12568]

get rid of the ball, dumbass.

[Brothahorn 10085]

What sucks is there are only 4 games tomorrow. I think we used to kick off with the MAZDA Gator bowl and roll from there. Plenty of game on game action. Now we got 4 spaced out games with no options.

[NCMountaineer 99]

What the actual fuck was that Doege? You know what, fuck it, put in Greene.

[Valmy77 13094]

Wow what a stupid play.

[texifornia 56547]

You deserve that, WVU

[Al_4_ISU 12409]

There’s no way Doege plays in the second half, right? WVU would be legit with a decent QB.

Three straight horrific decisions there

[Al_4_ISU 12409]

Three straight horrific decisions there

This should be a 21-7 beat down right now

[ClubWhatever 12087]

Brown is kind of married to Doege NTTATWWT because he got him to transfer from other nowheresville and also because he coached his brother.   He’s gonna have to quit him though.  

[texifornia 56547]

 

[QuesoEspecial 255]

Army! Let’s get this W and 10 wins Black Knights!

[QuesoEspecial 255]

Man if that dude is a Senior Vice President at AutoZone I may need to join their board...sheesh

[CastHorn 797]

I wish we could ditch WVU & save Colorado from the PAC.
