I know it's not defense, but how about that hit on st kickoff?

isn't the guy with the bad back that can't turn around really good?  can't remember if he's evans or what, but that's pretty badass to be playing d1 fball for an undefeated big 12 team when you can't even turn around.

Adam Davis.

yeah, what a badass.

was it just me or we were delivering more hits at all levels of the game last night, harder than at any point in time this season?  Special teams, especially the LBs and secondary were just flying to guys and blowing people the eff up.  Brown destroying Geno, kick off coverage.... i mean wow.  I don't know how many hits you could only describe with a loud BOOOOOM!

I also noticed that FOX had some mics on the field that were picking up a lot of noise - trash talking, etc.  Made the hits sound extra tough. 
Is that Manhattan?  My God, it's beautiful!

Don't know if this is the right spot to put this.  Don't know if luked.  But boy, I sure laughed at this article and thought maybe my friends on goEMAW.com might laugh and be happy at this little blurb so I'm going to share it with you all:

The Weekend in Shame
Kansas State 55, West Virginia 14: The most common complaints we get at College ShameDay are not about the teams we lambast; they're about the teams we leave out. The Mountaineers, likely incensed that their loss to Texas Tech went unnoticed, decided to do something about it. That something was laying a bigger and more putrid egg at home against Kansas State.

It is possible to overstate how ineffective West Virginia's offense was in this game, but only by resorting to outright lies like, "Geno Smith started hacky-sacking in the second quarter and claimed that he didn't even know what football was." A more measured statement: Going into the game, WVU was averaging six plays of 20 yards or more per contest; its longest play against Kansas State went for 13 yards. The Wildcats disarmed every Mountaineer weapon. For the first time in 25 games, no West Virginia player finished with at least 50 receiving yards.

Dana Holgorsen's offense could muster only 243 total yards by the final whistle, and—here is where we really twist the knife—West Virginia hadn't been held under 250 at home since Dec. 1, 2007. The winning coach in Morgantown that night?
