WVU gets another kick blocked and then CANNOT FUCKING TACKLE.
Jesus Christ. You could put 10 in the box against UC and they're still gonna run, and they still get run through.
Fucking free safety hits the linebacker rather than the QB. Worst fucking defense I have ever seen at WVU. Completely worthless. OLine isn't worth a shit either.
Basically everyone thinks WVU is loaded with talent, but really have about 4 skill people, Bruce Irvin and everyone else is young or sucks, or both. Stewart didn't recruit worth a shit.
EDIT: Can't punt either, apparently. Unbelievable. It'll be a miracle if they win this at this rate.

No, it isn't even close.
I never gave up on the team. I never declared the game over and a foregone conclusion. I said the way they were playing was poor and if it continued, would get them beat barring some miraculous event.
What I said about the O Line being poor and the defense being poor and the talent pool being shallow is fact. IIRC, I think WVU is down something like 15 scholarships right now because Stewart only brought 16-17 per class and a lot of them didn't make it just like happens in classes of 24-25. Stewart's recruiting classes on paper weren't terrible, but what you don't see is most of those players either didn't even make it to campus or didn't stick around, got homesick, were busts, etc. and Stewart didn't recruit enough players to make up the difference or provide depth. Holgorsen is trying to get people enrolled early enough that they count in *last* class for NCAA max reasons, so he can bring in more people to start to try to make up this deficit. WVU's special teams is terrible and IMO a lot of is attributable to this lack of depth resulting systematically from Stewart's recruiting um...philosophy?
Basically, the only Big 12 caliber players that Stewart appears to have recruited are Smith, Austin, Bailey, McCartney and Irvin. 3 of those are from the same high school, coached by a WVU grad. This season would have been a disaster if Stewart was still coaching. Bowl eligibility would be questionable. That'll never be provable because Holgorsen has kept things going pretty well, even if there have been some setbacks.
The defense is terrible. Pat Miller does not belong in Division I, I don't know why teams don't just throw to his side every down. LSU all but did and we see how that worked. The linebackers are young and cannot cover. The safeties don't tackle. Irvin is out of position as a down lineman on a 3 man front.
And it would have been a miracle if WVU had won if they kept sputtering on offense and being spectators on defense. Basically, Holgorsen decided if he was going to go down, it would be with his best and tried as many ways as he could to get Tavon Austin the ball, including lining him up as a running back in the diamond.
A blocked field goal to prevent overtime may or may not be a miracle, but it's a pretty unlikely play.
Understand now?
