31-yard TD reception by Rodarte. Ohio 17-7. Believe that...
Chase.

This is not a close game.

Have to keep putting it on. Should be 24-7, at least 20-7.

OU is more than doubling up them offensively. 288 yards in the first half.
Got my receivers mixed up. Thanks.

Although it started off very shaky, it looks like the Bobcats have found their footing. On the flip side, what happened to this oh-so dangerous West Virginia fast tempo offense we kept hearing about?

A fascinating first half. Hauser always is active with adjustments on Defense, and it shows. Special teams a little better, but still plenty to clean up. I did not anticipate WVU looking so bad on offense.

Parker and the offense look solid. Thought Brian should have called a time out in that goal line situation to reset things.

HUGE advantage with time of possession and we flipped the script with that TD before half since they are getting the ball to start the 2nd.

I believe!

Rodarte is absolutely clueless on the field. If the ball hits him directly in the tits, we’re good, if it takes any thought or effort whatsoever. *fart noise*

1 more quarter to go, and up by 7. At least we got a chance.

Interception called back because of Pass Interference. That kind of game...

I was told scheduling P5 schools was a bad idea and our whole team would end up injured.


We're a couple of 4th down stops from being 2-0. Good win.

Impressive that we beat them while not playing a clean game. Defense balled out and the fact that no points were scored off the three turnovers is HUGE. Great job, Cats. Also, I feel like the incorrect adage that you want to just stay healthy playing bigger schools proved false again. WVU is leaving Athens far more beat up than the Cats.

Remember, you’re supposed to complain about how much WVU is paying us for this series. Are they going to want us coming to Morgantown now?

The Frank status: DEFENDED!

400+ yards on offense. We had no problem moving the ball. DOMINATED TIME OF POSSESSION. WVU only managed 56 plays and Rich Rod was hoping for 100+. LOL!

You can't say enough good things about Hauser and the defensive front. Special teams pulled it together, for the most part.

I thought Smith got a little to aggressive in the passing game in the 3rd, easy for me to say because of the picks but I would have tucked it in to #5 and kept churning that clock.

It was glorious seeing WVU fans leave early then looked stunned on ESPNU.

But-but-but...they have that cool elevated tram thing.

However.... the rest of Morgantown quite does suck ass.

That "tram thing" is less operational than a McDonald's ice cream machine.

Absolutely correct. This is one of football's biggest myths.

GREAT WIN!

What a great crowd and atmosphere. The much-maligned defense stepped up and won this game. When he's not throwing interceptions, Navarro is a real magician and has an incredible will to win.

How was the crowd ratio? On TV it didn't look worse than 50/50.

I know we’re all excited. Hell of a win. Parker was trying too hard in the 2nd. The offense became stagnant and he was trying to make Parker Magic happen. And it bit us. I’ll live and die with him all day. But damn if I wouldn’t love to have rolled 40 on them.

Buttttt over on BTN, Rutgers took Miami behind the woodshed. 45-17. Finn had a rushing TD. Otherwise, poo poo stew.

I think the MAC goes through OU - Toledo this year.

What a game. Cheers boys. Enjoy several (more) Jackie O’s tonight.

If you include all the students on the hill, and all the OHIO fans on the press box side and on the Sook center balcony, I'd say about 35 to 40 percent were WVU fans, but OHIO fans were definitely in the majority.
