Did I really just watch a game where 500+ passing yards...

[UNTstormchaser]

...is not good enough to win, and is overshadowed by the other QB's performance??

Did anyone else watch the Baylor WVU game? Absolute insanity, I've never seen anything like it before. Geno Smith of WVU threw for well over 600 yards and had 8 TD passes compared to 6 incompletions, and on the other side of things, poor Baylor QB Florence threw for 500+ yards and led an offense that put up 63 points and lost. What the hell did I just watch?

I'm not sure whether to be happy about witnessing something so remarkable, or to call the police to submit an official statement about what I saw as a witness to the brutal assault on both defenses today. 70-63 final, around 1200 combined passing yards...TWO RECEIVERS WITH OVER 300 RECEIVING YARDS.

Seriously, what the hell did I just watch?

North Texas vs either SMU or Navy during the Dodge era.....only with much better players.......and a great audience.

Saw it too... clearly football does not need defense for its entertainment value

I saw the Navy UNT game mentioned in the notes at the bottom of the ESPN box score. Jesus H, crazy game.

That was fun to watch. The Big 12 will be interesting this year.

Cant wait til WVU goes to Austin

[SilverEagle]

Did anyone get a load of that crowd? In the words of Stormchaser....Jesus H! Not only was the stadium full but you saw nothing but their school colors.... alternated between sections (in the lower bowl).

I also liked how they placed their band. Right on the ground behind the end zone. That way both sides of the stadium got the full sound.

Assuming UT takes care of business tonight, the winner of WVU vs UT will have a good chance of winning the conference. Will defense or offense prevail??

[emmitt01]

Im gonna favor WVU. Not because i think they roll up anywhere close to 70, but because i think they'll get to at least 28-30 and I think they can manage to force UT to eat a lot of clock on slow sustained drives.

I say 28-24 or 30-27. Something like that.

I saw that too, and thought for our Tuesday night nationally televised game versus U of Louisiana that that wouldn't be a bad place to put our marching band for just that one game.

GMG!

West Virginia is beautiful country and I am looking forward to our visits up there against Marshall.

I am starting to like to watch WVU as much as I enjoy turning in to watch Oregon.

I was at the game tonight and did not see any such animal. I saw a defense that was not going to let us lose. It was awesome!

Somehow I never realized they did this at every game. I like it.

That. Is. Awesome.

Good find GP1. Beautiful

Better video taken from the field.

Think a Mountaineers game will probably have to be added to my list now. I'm a sucker for loud drunken crowd singing.

Interesting coincidence?

So after the Fight Song/Alma Mater are played by the Green Brigade, what should we start playing over the PA? I think there is a ton of local music to consider adopting.

Have Eagle1885 whip us up an original number.... Or we could just steal their bit and sing Country Roads.

Maybe this one?

You guys are getting way ahead of yourselves. You have to get people to go to the games first, before you talk about what to sing as a crowd.

Are we not paying enough attention to you? You're trying a little too hard here buddy.
