Against Texas one td was a fumble in the enzone and one was against prevent defense. They didn't play that bad. Young defense that is getting better. They are not as awful as people say.

ive watched almost all their gms,,,above avg is a overstatement, not saying they cant or are not improving and they have played solid offenses for most part so yea maybe not as bad as some say but not good...they dont really have to be tho when they got that offense clicking like it is right now, no big 12 team can stop it that for damn sure..

Ok, maybe above average is not right. They are improving and only need to be average to win a national championship with this offense. I have watched every game twice and have yet to see a reciever drop a pass, it's unreal how good they are.

Comparatively speaking amongst big college football defenses, this is one of the least productive, possibly worst defenses in the nation. To call them "above average" is ludicrous.

The offense is amazing. The best and most talented imo. The balance of this team however is horrendous.

Have you ever seen a body builder who only works out upper body? He looks huge, but then you see his tiny little legs and he looks funny. That's the balance WVU has.

**eeezzzz** · 10-10-12, 12:08 AM

Imagine Arnold Schwarzenegger's upper body frame and a little girls legs.

LMAO. They have given up 108 points in two conference games.

So basically they're giving up 54 points on average in the Big 12 and you think they are above average?

No. They suck. With that said, their offense is awesome.

**WVU9494** · 10-10-12, 12:14 AM

Well, out of all the teams Texas has played we gave up the least yards to them with our offense being on the field a limited amount of time. So right there shows there are at least 5 teams with a worse defense the ours.

It's about points.

You do realize that Texas scored more points against WVU than they did against the likes of New Mexico, Wyoming, and Oklahoma State.

Are you seriously trying to say WVU has an above average defense when they gave up 63 to Baylor and 45 to Texas? Come on man.

Also, Texas doesn't even have that great of an offense. They ranked near the bottom in the Big 12 last year in a lot of categories.

**hougigo** · 10-10-12, 01:11 AM

It's sitting at -3.5 on 5D
So damn tempting

In all fairness 7 of those were scored by the defense, lol.

Itsvnot "all about pts". That's a stupid statement. 7 pts were from the d, and another 7 were in the prevent d. They gave up less yards to Texas then any other team, so at least 5 teams are worse on defense.

**ZINISTER** · 10-10-12, 12:56 PM

If I go one minute with Mike Tyson and go the distance with all other fighters is my defense good or bad? You should have answered good. ALL teams are putting up big numbers on WV's D. This team has not been a good tackling team for the last 3 years. The secondary is nothing but a bunch of trippin machines, if they can't trip ya they miss completely. I stayed off of Texas last week not sure if it was going to be Geno's meltdown week. This team does not handle adversity well. When things are going good they go good, when its time to gut one out they are OUT! Typical of a team with speed. Tech controls the line of scrimmage, the clock and keeps WV off the field which takes them out of rythym. Tech wins 35-31 Peace

Based on what? They haven'y lost a game and they came from behind a few times against Texas.

**5mike5** · 10-10-12, 05:24 PM

dont listen to the haters

all of them said same shit last week vs texas, and they were all SILENT after the game

will be the exact same result this week

Texas had a drive of 7 mins in the second half. Wvu scored on 6 plays next drive. Looks like they were out of rythem. Wvu 42 TT 17

**M.W.** · 10-10-12, 08:15 PM

Where do you get this stuff? The win at Texas was a great win, but WVU struggled with Baylor and Maryland at home. Texas Tech is better than Baylor (7-pt win at home) and WAY better than Maryland (10-pt win at home). Based on WVU's past results this season, this game is a toss-up.

Why is Tt better then Baylor? Baylor has a top 5 offense.

**ZINISTER** · 10-10-12, 09:12 PM

The inability to handle adversity will come when the WV offense gives the ball up via fumble, int., or sacks start occuring. The other team walks it down the field and the offense is helplessly behind and pressing knowing they have no way of stoping the other team from scoring. I'm not sure if I am palying this game as of yet. I feel there are better plays. The WV train derails at some point, I'm thinking it is now. That's all. Best of luck! Peace

**ZINISTER** · 10-10-12, 09:16 PM

Based on watching them play! They can't tackle it is abundantly clear after watching them for a quarter this year.

Anyone that plays against WVU has a top 5 offense that week.

Look bud, I realize you're a WVU fan and I'll admit they are pretty good because of their offense. I even picked WVU to beat my Sooners this year. Geno Smith is a stud and those two receivers are really good.

With that said, their defense sucks and you can't say otherwise. They're giving up a shit ton of points to everyone. So what if 7 points was scored by the Texas defense.

Are you trying to argue they gave up 38 instead of 45? What does it really matter? If you give up 63 to an unranked team at home, you're defense isn't any good. Period!

There will be a time when WVU turns the ball over a few time, gets behind, and they won't be able to catch up because their defense won't be able to stop the other time.

**BigDofBA** · 10-13-12, 03:10 PM

WVU defense couldn't stop a nose bleed.

Are you starting to see what I was talking about earlier in the week?

Texas scores 45 against WVU but their offense can't score at all against OU's starters today.

Texas Tech is up three TDS and has already scored more points in the first half than they did all game last week.

WVU has given up 5 TDS to Texas Tech in 7 possessions. Their defense sucks!

42-17 WVU huh?

They ended up giving up over 650 yards and 49 points. Will you at least admit that their defense sucks now?
