Is it possible for the majority to support a team that is depleted on D in this final quarter?

[torontoeers]

Probably not I know....but under the circumstances they're doing the best they can....a final game for quite a few seniors....let's go here!

 

[Atreides]

The D is only part of this. Going three and out on one series and tossing an INT in another isn't on the D

 

[Atreides]

You can't beg these guys to shut the Door.

 

[Atreides]

Of course ASU's holding noncalls don't help

 

[torontoeers]

True enough Atreides indeed...but imo this team has done plenty on O in the first 3 quarters to earn the win....our regular D starters are in (across the board) and this is a no contest....

Most of us have never stopped supporting the players. These poor seniors deserve a bowl win. They came into a top 20 program and have suffered through Dana

 

[MountaineerWV]

Great....starting at the 8 yard line. Will this mean 3 runs and a punt like usual when backed up in this territory? We shall see.

Exactly. The homers can't take it that the realists all want to win, and are cheering for WVU...

I wouldn't worry about the players, I'm betting they will be just fine. Probably ought to worry about the poor fans.

 

[Atreides]

I think the D is losing the game right now....third down and long seems to be a Killer and the arm tackling and missed tackles on the edges....We could score TD's all night and not stop anything on D.

It was frustrating to watch, but stood tall in the end and Barber with a big play to end it...nice to see.

It's our first bowl win since joining the Big 12. Nothing comes easy and I'm hoping that this win gives the team confidence that it can compete and win against power 5 teams. Let's see how they build off of this.
