scary creek, I agree with the weaker schedule, I believe they schedule the games 4 years in advance, so some schools that were good at that time may fall off and poor teams improve. the only fix is soon coming with the playoff, I hope!!

Kinda interesting you posting this . Mack is kinda in the hot seat. I read a report yesterday or 2 days ago that said if Saban were to leave Ala. where would he be interested in going . His reply was Texas . Look out for a merry go round ride at the end of the season for some of these coaches .

Yep. Whats left for Saban to accomplish?.. I mean really what top coach would turn down a boatload of money and the biggest college football program in the country? We sure as heck can't afford him!

There's been way worse! Is it possible that Millard should have been starting all year? That's an extremely good Texas team that just barely beat us!

Wvu should have never lost though instead of punting it on that 4th and 1 they should have went for it

if we could win out and sneak in a small bowl win that would sure put a jump start in next years program . we really haven't been blowed out except Maryland . we should've beaten Oklahoma , and texas tech in my opinion , Kansas st . who knows but had we won them two and not let Maryland embrass us we would've been on the path to possiable the big 12 champions , I think were on the right path , just needs alittle time .

They got a good recruiting class coming in if they get a few more good recruits I think they will be alright

WV out played Texas until the very end but anyone that knows anything about College Football knows that Morgantown on a Saturday night is a very hard place to come out with a win. I would not give up on Dana just yet. I do believe WV will win out. Ricky Allen

WVU fans witnessed seven lead changes in overtime loss
Monday Morning Quarterback
November 11, 2013
By Blaine Myers , Parkersburg News and Sentinel
Save | It was an emotional, exhaustive night for WVU Mountaineer fans Saturday. Four hours of football. Seven lead changes. Punches and counter punches. More turns of momentum than one could count. A remarkable 43 nail biting 3 and 4 down conversion attempts by the two teams. But after it was all over West Virginia had suffered a 47-40 overtime loss to the Texas Longhorns, and the drive home across U.S. 50 seemed all the longer.

For the first half and much of the third quarter, the two teams played less than stellar football. Turnovers and missed opportunities were the norm. After taking a quick 9-0 lead in the first quarter fueled by a blocked punt, the Mountaineers had opportunities to increase their lead with two Texas turnovers near midfield but couldn't capitalize. For their part, the Longhorns forced two fumbles and an interception deep in WVU territory, twice inside the 10, but came away with only three field goals for their efforts.

Late in the first quarter, quarterback Clint Trickett left the game with a concussion after several hard hits, and backup Paul Millard initially struggled. Texas was dominating the line of scrimmage and Millard had no time to throw and the Mountaineers couldn't run. In one stretch, six consecutive WVU possessions resulted in no first downs and netted minus 31 yards. But just when things appeared hopeless on offense, Millard found his rhythm and the Mountaineers were efficient thereafter, as Millard led sustained scoring drives of 51, 76, 91 and 52 yards, three of which ended in touchdowns. He later hit Mario Alford in stride on a slant pattern for a 72-yard TD.

The West Virginia defense performed as well as it had all year through the first two-and-a-half quarters. In its first 12 possessions, Texas ran 46 plays, gained only 143 yards and managed only one touchdown. But as we have seen so many times in 2013, the Mountaineer defense was unable to sustain a good level of play throughout the game. Beginning midway through the third quarter, the Longhorns scored touchdowns on three consecutive possessions and ended up with 435 total yards.

As can usually be said in any close loss, WVU was one play away from sealing a victory or extending the game, but couldn't quite close the deal. The Mountaineers were 3rd and 1 with three minutes remaining and couldn't get a first down which might have clinched a victory. Texas was down to its last gasp with a 4th and 7 on its last drive to tie the game and was able to convert. And when West Virginia had its back to the wall on 4th down at the 5-yard line in overtime, they were unable to score.

The Mountaineers gave a good fight. They came off the mat with a backup quarterback, twice came from behind in the fourth quarter, but the better Texas team just made a few more plays. Unfortunately this scenario has played out several times this season, as West Virginia has had second half leads against four good Big 12 opponents (Oklahoma State, Kansas State, Texas Tech, Texas) but could hold on only once for a win.

One has a feeling that in the Big East days of playing Rutgers, Connecticut, South Florida, etc., these kind of games would have turned into wins. The significant upgrade in the quality of opponents week-to-week in the Big 12 is showing up in the win/loss record.

This Saturday: The Mountaineers still have an opportunity to be bowl eligible if they can garner wins over the two league foes who have been unable to win a conference game thus far in 2013. But the trip to Kansas Saturday will be no easy task. West Virginia has played two consecutive overtime games, and left a lot on the field Saturday night. On their side of the ledger, the Jayhawks are desperate to break a humbling three-year 27 game conference losing streak. West Virginia 28 Kansas 21.

I see a correlation between the SEC and the 10 poorest states in the USA. Do they work down there or just play football?

Got the 10 poorest states thing from another thread.
