Harry Trotter is only effective from 1.5 yards and in, pretty tough spot for the ball coach there.

We should be up 7-0. Any other RB but trotter scores in that run around the edge. His slow ass can't get to the pylon and he doesn't have the strength to run through anyone. Where is J Wright?

We are still in this, this game is still within reach.  They have kept deuce in check but we may have something up our sleeve.  Klanderman needs a shutout in the second half, have to scheme the crap out of the secondary coverages to get it done.

LB fletcher lined up across from their TE spread out but left him to cover an already covered WR after the snap. left the field completely open on 3rd and long. not sure what is happening with our LBs. WVU certainly figured out our LBs have trouble with everything including just covering the man across from you

It didn't end up mattering, but our play calling on the 1st and goal from the 3 was some of the most scared play calling I've ever seen. Mess must think that Deuce sucks. Then once we declined the running into the kicker and one play from the 1 and a half line to get a touchdown, I knew what this was going to be. Not only didn't they trust the offense to get one damn yard, they apparently thought the defense would let WVU drive 99 yards if we didn't get the touchdown.

Just a complete chickenshit sequence of decision making.

all new OLs. worst OL in the league other than KU. No true offensive tackles. playing out of position players because Snyder couldn't attract a single OT. And Klieman couldn't convince a transfer to come to KSU. the team's roster is frankly a complete mess. we should be thankful we have won a couple games.
