WVU playing like they're pissed off about the Pitt loss.

Fire Bob Stoops!  ;D

Late hit and unsportsmanlike conduct puts ball at the WVU 25 for OU.

Great field position, and OU settles for a FG.

Holy crap! WVU's fullback busts a long one for a TD. WTF? How can you let a FB score from that distance?

schmitt rules.

everyone's finally getting to see the wvu that I talked about all year.   definitely making na interesting case for the  tin-foil-rodriguez-sabotaged-the-pitt-game  debate.


i really hope slaton stays for one more year.

undefendable at the edges.

OU's trying to set the Fiesta Bowl record for most penalties in a game.

9 and should have been called for 10.

that was one blatant *goshdarn* hold  and it wasn't even called
 [sm_shock]

nice job of officiating  ::)

announcers and "berry dingle"   LMAO

Unbelievable. Bob Stoops might have made some halftime adjustments that actually work. Lame-ass 2pt try though.

wvu stuck in conservative mode.

weak

Even worse onside kick.

Big 3rd down for the Mountaineers.

Another penalty negates a good return.

Fiesta Bowl??.... without reading the thread it sounds like some bizarre taco love in..

wow,  wvu needs to get this guy signed as their head coach, even if he can't recruit  you can hire for that.   he's got this team up to play more than i've seen all year.   the rodriguez   wvu squad would have folded after letting oklahoma get within a td again.   this team comes right back and reburies them like a  jv squad.

how many times is stoops gonna chase that 2 pointer? 

hahahahha,  just remember "white can only hurt you with his legs"

lmao.  that was on a rope.

3 straight years, 3 straight january bowl wins  .  pretty impressive

Unless OU can get some big defensive plays, this game is about over.

Penalty #11 coming up.

Yup.

They need to stop going for these 4-yard pass plays.

WVU trying to catch up to OU in the penalty department.

or wvu with some idiot penalties and then a DB falling down in coverage
 [sm_disgust]

Those two PATs would have come in handy right about now.

Let's see if OU can come up with a couple of defensive stops.

QFT.

about the only way they could do that is having someone off the sideline tackle devine at the edge
 [sm_devil]

Last 2 WVU drives: 14 points on 3 plays in 78 seconds.

They can start by not overpursuing.

Why the *fudge* are the Sooners running the ball?

That's a catch!!!

Not wanting to be outdone, OU picks up a quick 25 yards in penalties to take the lead, 115 yards to 110 yards.

Game ovah. This will be 4 consecutive losses in BCS bowls for OU.

fire stoops !

hire stewart ! (wvu, that is)

Rich Rodriguez = moran

wow, looks like the AD  saw what the rest of the world saw.

Ummmmm.  Please disregard what I said in that other thread about the Sooners being one of the 3 teams playing the best at the end of the regular season.

Spanked!

Could a good starting defensive tackle have turned the tide in the game?

I wondered how much his absence was felt as well.  WV ran for almost 9 yds / attempt.  Go ahead and give some kudos to WV for a good game, but 9 yds / attempt???  Mr. Stoops' boys were not ready to play.

 :punchballs:   Wow that game was very similar to the USC game.  I haven't seen our defense play so bad in a long time.  Granger was a big loss but I think the biggest loss was to the secondary.  Reggie Smith is one of the best DBs in college football and not having him and Lindy Holmes hurt bad. 

But the offense was pretty much inept in the absence of DeMarco Murray (one of the fastest guys on our team) and Malcolm Kelly our best WR. 

I will give credit to WV they played awesome though so hats off to them.  First team all year that was faster than us. 

I also wonder about our O line blocking schemes.  We had no answer for their pass rush and no idea where it was coming from.  I wonder if losing Kevin Sumlin from the offensive coaching staff hurt us there. 

I won't say fire Bob Stoops though because as tough as it is to lose 4 BCS games in a row at least we get there. 

How about

Hire Mike Stoops back as Defensive coordinator.  Ever since he left our defensive has been beatable by the big play.  Fire Venables.

yeh, but not much of that was up the middle.  hard to say what impact an elite DT would really command against speed edge running

He's only elite, if he's wearin' a new coat!

If you can clog the middle with a good DT, you can cheat the LBs a little more to the perimeter or even bring up a safety for run stopping.

yeh, but would it really be enough? thats why it's a tough call

9 men in the box!   [sm_hump]

This game lends credence to the theory that Rodriguez tossed the Pitt game so he'd be able to take the Michigan job.  I'm absolutely stumped to think the same WVU team played in both games. 

Coming out of the conference championship games, I was convinced OU was the best team in the country.

What a bizzaro season!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?????????!??????????????!????????

Craziness.  I thought this game would be lopsided the other way.
