I doubt they'll be head of either when the bcs poll comes out tonight. LSU hasn't beaten any good team.

I don't think BCS comes out til next week.

How the fuck does Florida jump both K State and WVU? They beat an overrated LSU and jump 6 spots?

dude its the SEC!!!!

[stealthee]

Thats exactly what I told Jeremy.

AP poll doesn't matter anyway. Florida is #6 in the Coaches Poll.

I didn't think they came out til next week either, but according to espn it's today.

The sloppiest game WVU has played, and the bulk of the slop is on Geno. 2 fumbles, one that paid dividends for UT immediately.

Our D has proven they can stop the run. When I started screaming...when UT burnt us twice on the TE wheel route. Corner blitzing and not accounting for the open receiver. That play obviously needs some work. Biggest surprise of the game for me? Pat Miller. Punk finally stepped up.

In any event, ridiculously happy to come out of Austin, in front of a record crowd, with a win. Next stop, Lubbock.

LOL! Yeah, I bet that play drove Mack crazy. WHO called the timeout and WHY?!

It says a lot that mike watched this game and thinks Texas lost because of David Ash. We're watching totally different games, apparently. Ash did everything we wanted him to do. He can't make Bergeron catch that 4th down pass that hit him in the hands/chest. The only thing he did wrong at all was get the team to the LoS too late when Texas had a chance to take the lead late. The resulting fumble falls into this "shit happens" category for me. I thought it was a great game, and it played out exactly as I expected. Disappointed because we had a chance to win, but we're still building for the future. We'll get revenge next season, J Kristy really wants to make a trip out of it.

22/29 for 269 (76%) with a TD and only 1 sack is getting the job done. 165.2 QB rating in the 2nd worst game of his season so far... I honestly couldn't be happier with the leap Ash made from last year. No one saw this coming.

1. Geno Smith, WVU... 202.4
2. J.W. Walsh, OKST... 181.2
3. David Ash, TEX... 180.1

Ash did just fine, overall. He's really maturing and UT will be a force next year. WV won the game by making UT 1 dimensional. Totally took away the run. We allowed it co be close with JD Woods dropping 2 td passes, Buie tripping over the 20 yard line, and Geno fumbling twice. UT lost the game by running man coverage with two deep. With that coverage, UT was begging us to run, and we did, in a BIG way. I kept waiting for the adjustment, and UT never did(except in the 4th, but it was too late, WV flexed their muscle and still got it done on the ground). In their defense, there's just so many weapons to account for in this offense, you pick a poison.

Yeah, come on up, you'll love Morgantown.

There are plenty of people putting this one on Manny Diaz (our DC) for failing to make the adjustment and failing to have LB's ready to play. The D-line got a lot more pressure than I expected. I honestly, seriously hope you guys can keep it up and win an MNC. You certainly look better prepared to do it than any other B12 team right now. Your battle vs K-State will be an awesome clash of contrasting styles.
