Backyard Brawl

[yermom]

go Panthers!

Slaton is gooood....

7-7 4:00 left in the 1st

[Harry Beanbag]

Is it too late to bet the Over on this game?

[Octavian]

51 yarder :rolleyes:

[Rogue]

I'm still not used to Thursday night games.

WVU - 17
Pitt - 14

5:58 to go, 2nd quarter.

[Octavian]

tied up at 17

C'mon Panther D

[Octavian]

OMG

Play of the Year

[Octavian]

Herbie agrees :D

[yermom]

what a return, damn

that was a HUGE block

[yermom]

24-17 Panthers 2:18 left in the 1st half

[Octavian]

de-cleating 2 guys at once is pretty cool

[OUinFLA]

dang, what a run

I will be thrilled it Pitt wins this game.
then to top it off, Ill have to root for the mountain men to beat the rutties.

[oumartin]

in this modern era of high tech junk. somebody post that play already... i am too lazy to find the remote

[BOOMERBRADLEY]

i am too lazy to find the remote

Wow, that is the laziest thing I have ever heard ;)

[Octavian]

damn...Slaton just burned him.

24-24

[yermom]

again, damn Slaton is amazing

he looks like Reggie Bush out there


24-24 :59 left in the half

[Octavian]

it'd be nice to get another score before halftime...

these defenses are pitiful

[yermom]

looks like whoever gets the ball last wins :eek:

Herbie agrees on the Bush thing, heh

[Octavian]

no times-out left for Pitt...hope they don't do something stupid and run out of time here.

even a FG would be huge before half

[Octavian]

Herbie agrees on the Bush thing, heh

when's someone gonna offer us our own show? :D

[Octavian]

27-24 Pitt w/ :03 left in the half

They'll be lucky to keep 'em from scoring ;)

[yermom]

either one of us would be better than Holtz :D

[TUSooner]

I'm for WVA. Rich Rodriguez was the offensive mastermind behind Tulane's undefeated season. He got cruelly screwed out of the head coaching job, but he stayed on under the new coach to run the offense in the bowl game. He's a very good guy.

[yermom]

i just want teams ahead of us to lose, and i like seeing the underdog win :D

normally i'm rooting for WV though, especially back when they played Miami every year

[yermom]

31-27 WV 14:12 in the 3rd

nice run for White

heh, turf toe

[yermom]

in other news, OU is killing Liberty 63-36 with like 6 minutes left in the game

[afs]

i would challenge that almost pick being drop by the ground.

[yermom]

i think that might have been a pick :D

[yermom]

the way he came down, i guess it could have been a touchback

[OUinFLA]

nice punt

[yermom]

i call BS on this turf toe thing

White looks pretty dang good

[IronSooner]

I still can't get over how WVA essentially runs the option...aside from a periodic passing game they basically run their offense for 2 guys. And it works. Over and over. Makes the defense look like they didn't even see it coming. Amazing.

[OU Adonis]

God I love the option

[yermom]

and White runs into the endzone... 38-27 WV 5:03 3rd

[bluedogok]

On that last replay of White running the ball in my fat self could have got 5 yards running through that hole. I guess defense is optional in the Big Least.....

[IronSooner]

Pssst. Pitt. West Virginia's gonna run it. Seriously. Watch. See, told ya so. Wait, they're gonna do it again. Here it comes.

[IronSooner]

Slaton has 276 all-purpose yards. That's just sick.

[yermom]

damn, Slaton is is killing them now too 55yd TD

45-27 WV

[BOOMERBRADLEY]

Slaton has 276 all-purpose yards. That's just sick.

I thought he had over 300 ?

[Texas Golfer]

Slaton may have solidified his position on the Heisman.

[bluedogok]

I thought he had over 300 ?
The 276 number was up to that point of the game, here was his final line from Yahoo Sports.

S. Slaton, RB
23 Rush, 215 yds, 2 TDs
6 Rec, 130 yds, 2 TDs

[wishbonesooner]

Did you hear one of the guys on the broadcast ask Herb if Slaton was the best RB in college football? He said "as long as Adrian Peterson isn't in uniform, yes he is"
Cool.

[Jason White's Third Knee]

The Big East is taking the old Pac 10 stance. Good offense and the worst defense in the universe.

[Tear Down This Wall]

I could never be for Pitt. Their fanbase screaming for Larry Fitzgerald to win the Heisman instead of Jason was too much. They kept pointing to the Kansas State game...while ignoring the fact that Fitzgerald disappeared in about four games that year against good teams, namely the Miami game.

Fags. Plus, it's fun to watch Wannstedt lose. He got too much credit for his time in Dallas. Everyone ignores how he tanked in Chicago and Miami as a head coach afterwards. Plus, he was an assistant at Oklahoma State. Screw him.

Yea, Mountaineers!
