[QUOTE="Buckaineer, post: 132165579, member: 1428007"] Do you have a bad memory? Just like to create fantasies about what really happened? Will Grier had beeen hurt near seasons end and then opted out of the bowl game just a short time before the game. Thus Holgorsen had about a week to get the backup Allison ready for the game. Some key offensive and defensive starters also opted out of the game. WVU was facing a 9-3 top 20 Syracuse team in that game, yet WVU hung tight with them up until late in the fourth when SU pulled away. With so many key personnel out and the short turnaround. not many expected WVU to pull out a win and they weren’t able to. Has nothing to do with where WVUs offense was, where they were ranked, etc. During the season unless you are trying to spin away the success the team had that year like the great victory at Texas. Heres what CBS said at the time: [I][URL='https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/teams/WVU/west-virginia-mountaineers/']West Virginia[/URL] was one of the nation's top teams and fielded one of college football's best offenses this season, but both those declarations will be in question, in a big way, when the No. 16 Mountaineers battle No. 20 [URL='https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/teams/CUSE/syracuse-orange/']Syracuse[/URL] in the Camping World Bowl in Orlando, Fla., on Friday. The Mountaineers will be without record-setting star quarterback Will Grier, who has chosen to sit out the bowl game on his way to being one of the top quarterbacks available for the upcoming [URL='https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft']NFL draft[/URL]…. Wide receiver Gary Jennings. Jr., who played the last six weeks of the season with a high ankle sprain, and offensive tackle Yodny Cajuste are also going to skip the Camping World Bowl.[/I] So stop pretending WVU was nothing to try and make Browns failure better in your mind.
