I have not seen 1 WVU snap this year, cause I just went on about living my life. Are they that bad? Does Austin Kendall suck? 

They looked good against NC State at home, but the pack are pretty shitty this year (along with the whole ACC). Mizzou beat the fuck out of them.

Kendall is good at quick timing stuff, but his long ball is godawful.

Running backs are solid. Might be their best position.

Their secondary is crazy young and thin. Eagles and DevDuv should feast.

predict kickoff line will be down to -6.5.

vegas is stupid.  aggy biting on 3-score lines makes vegas think the entire state is batshit.

Lmao -6.5? We are going to fuck this team, and it isn't a night game in MoTown. -11 is being generous to Mountain aggy.

This game should be won in the trenches. 

WV is starting a true freshman at NT and a Sophomore at DE. The interior OL is also all underclassmen with 2 RS FR. They're young on both sides of the lines. 5/ 8 of their starters on the lines are underclassmen.

31-24 wouldn't surprise me and neither would 44-17. I guess I'd bet the -11 if you made me choose.

Just a few stats to mull over (yes, I know we’ve played two, top-10 offenses. Just raw numbers):

Total Offense:

Texas, #19 (497.8 ypg); WV, #118 (326);

Scoring Offense:

Texas, #13 (41.8 ppg), WV, #94 (25);

Total Defense:

Texas, #102 (436.5), WV, #56 (374);

Scoring Defense:

both tied at #62, (25.5 ppg).  

Turnover Margin:

Texas, #34 (+.5), WV, #50 (+.25);

Net Punting:

Texas, #102 (35.75), WV, #79 (37.36);

Punt Returns:

Texas, #130, dead last (-.63), WV, #59, (8.8).

Texas didn’t lose to Okie State & fumbled 2 punts away. If we lose this game, it will be on total breakdown in ST play, penalties, & turnovers. It could happen. We need to stay humble.
