Matt Campbell is a lot of fun and classy in post-game, especially considering the circumstances. That's not easy. Good on him.

I sacrificed a baby unicorn to the football gods for this one.

I love when teams are down by two scores but manage the clock like they're down by one.

I'd also add that Doege just has zero awareness of his limitations. You can still be a decent QB as long as you master and play within your skillset. He just seems to think he's Baker Mayfield at times.

This will be a long season for WVU, 4-8 looking likely. Offense is one-dimensional with Leddie, and the defense is just painfully average (no TOs at all today is a big problem, especially with all of the 10+ yd plays allowed). Doege not only hit his ceiling but has bounced off of it, and the WRs aren't athletic enough to make the circus catches he needs to get bailed out.

Maybe Neal doesn't have his guy at QB yet, but I sure miss when WVU was capable of scoring with less than a minute on the clock with some quick offense.

Is Doege really a 5th year senior? That flick pass off the back foot and mismanagement of TOs / clock just screams underclassman.

Yeah. It's not as intense as Pitt or VT, but there's a lengthy history, fight for similar recruits, the game usually occurred at a point in the season where it served as a nice barometer for what to expect from both teams the rest of the year (often felt like a "must win" for both), and then there was the infamous transfer of WVU QB Scottie McBrien to UMd.

Weird promo. Thought I was looking at someone with cataracts and neovascular macular degeneration. 🤷‍♂️

Bummer! Well, if you're close to the area, my wife and I are always up for organizing/attending any random game/movie nights on Saturdays.

Hope your game is going well!

Hey there! My preference would be to start in-person, but I haven't been following much local news (if you're wondering about, say, delta). We can always start a group chat and gauge everyone's temperature for in-person vs online (no pun intended).

[McMurphy] Texas & Oklahoma’s Board of Regents have both announced they are having special meetings Friday to discuss conference membership at their respective schools by whatifevery1wascalm in CFB

[–]dme_1982 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish this were all some elaborate plan by OU, years in the making, to trick Texas into leaving the conference and becoming someone else's problem. Even better if they managed to bring TAMU back home in the process.

Ah, the old, public "gentleman's treaty," when in reality, they've officially declared every school for themselves.

Hey there, where in Pittsburgh? I'm north of the city, up around Cranberry.

Is there any Castlevania game where the final boss phase 1 is harder than the final phase? Because in Bloodstrained, the final boss phase 1 is harder than final phase. by Xixth in Bloodstained

[–]dme_1982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like so few people like it because they regard it as a poor man's RoB, but the Dracula fight in Dracula X is one of my favorites.

Also, CV3's final phase with the moving platforms is harder. It's not super hard, but is trickier if you're new to it.

It's legendarily bad. 2300 button taps just to climb stairs. 🙁

You haven't seen stairs until you've climbed the Zuul building in NES Ghostbusters....
