GAME THREAD West Virginia vs. James Madison

[Keenan Cummings]

Game kicks off at 2 p.m.

 

[locustwv]

38-10!!! Very pumped to see this new team.

 

[WVUALLEN]

31-17 it's the opener and it's a must win for Neal Brown to get it off to a good start. WVU might only be 4-8 or 6-6 but this is a must win.

 

[Darth_VadEER]

Sure wish I was there. This is longest ive gone without getting to a game in morgantown - 3 years.

Opening day in Morgantown is one of my favorite places to be.

TURNOVER!!!!

 

[muraca777]

I dont know who convinced Brown that McKoy is tavon Austin but hes not and he needs to figure that out before were 0-7

 

[RichardCranium1]

Team needs that killer instinct.
Mental toughness isn't there yet.

 

[locustwv]

It’s early. Kendall needs some confidence

 

[spreadoption_rivals80969]

Only one quarter in, but JMU is definitely the more physical team. And quicker, too.

Looks like the SOS.

[muraca777]

Ok I've had a crazy couple of weeks so I missed it, why no Leddie Brown

Rolled his ankle in practice.

 

[RichardCranium1]

Have to stop them on third down.
But not stopping the run is hurting.

 

[locustwv]

Special teams definitely a bright spot!!

 

[EERs 3:16]

So what’s plan B? Cause plan A seems not be working

 

[WVUFanForever]

Good grief....we just had a special teams player down our punt when it was going to bounce another 10 yards...stupid football.

Lowe and the option.

 

[WVUFanForever]

Are we sure this isnt air-raid....30 plays....22 passes and 8 runs.

 

[EERs 3:16]

On those rare occasions, when he QB does find a receiver........the receiver thanks the QB by promptly dropping the ball......not exactly a winning formula

 

[EERs 3:16]

Are we sure this isnt air-raid....30 plays....22 passes and 8 runs.

And 20 drops ....

 

[muraca777]

Hard to drop passes that are 10 yards off line

 

[MountaineerWV]

Kendall with 23 attempts. Only 90 yards. Option 2? If we have one.

 

[Pitt4Life34]

Hopefully JMU is a top 10 D1 and things get easier from here.

 

[Pitt4Life34]

Let’s see what adjustments Brown makes at halftime. Have to assume WVU athletes are better than JMU athletes so there are answers in the WVU locker room.

 

[locustwv]

I just think Lowe with his ability to run is a better option right now.

 

[WVUALLEN]

I think it's more us than it is them.

 

[WVUALLEN]

It's been a long time since I've seen halftime adjustments. I like it.

 

[Charleston Mountie]

It's been a long time since I've seen halftime adjustments. I like it.

The biggest improvement will come between this game and the next - thankfully. But, all most of us want to see is progression from one game to the next. We will not win a lot at first but we will later on. I do not mind that so long as we get the investment and the pay off.

 

[muraca777]

10 touches 16 yards. And they call it versatility

 

[MountaineerWV]

We are not very good.......IF we win 3 games, we will be lucky.

 

[WVUALLEN]

Defense waking up

 

[WVUALLEN]

He has telegraphed that pass all day. It's going to be a pick 6 if he's not careful.

 

[MountaineerWV]

Wait....was that Don Nehlen? Third down draw play.......[roll]

 

[WVUman11]

Is Spav back calling these runs?

 

[RichardCranium1]

Need an offense that can take over the game and not give the ball back.
Have to improve the OL and get a bigger back

 

[locustwv]

Run clock!! Need the running game!!!

 

[muraca777]

Better get Leddie healthy because Mckot is so extra. 15 touches 24 yards against 1AA. Excuses will fly but whatever. If in Brown and I dont get featured as soon as I'm back and all season, I'm transferring. No way I sit behind that just because hes older
