I think we may beat WVA. Our O is looking like it can score some points. Our D could stiffen up and stop them. I'd take the spread

and then they all lived happily everafter!

The standard ending to a fairy tale.

And you are probably right. This is not last years WVU team. It is not the same offense which the Huskies are used to defending. This is more like the Texas Tech, Houston and Oklahoma State offense. You last saw an offense similar but not exactly like it in the Fiesta Bowl. I hope that UConn is able to keep this one respectable. I know you won last year but so much has happened to both teams in that time. UConn lost their coach and somewhat their identity and WVU gained an offensive mastermind who has had success wherever he has coached. Good luck Huskies.

I see a few scenarios where keep it a game, many more where it gets very ugly. Need another 7 turnover game.

Somewhat ?.... how about completely ... The offense as of late has stronger passing than running, the defense blitzes and is aggressive but often misses assignments. Heck there are names on the uniforms.. NAMES ON THE BACK OF UNIFORMS!!! :confused:

The over under for WVU fumbles is 6. I'm praying for 8.

I think we play tough early but.......

We have to find some way of getting that WVU coach all liquored up.

Honestly, I'm not focused on winning Saturday. That was the toughest date on our schedule from the time it was announced in March. We need to play hard, and smart, and well, so that they think they can beat USF the following week at home.

I'll take the under on that. We aren't as bad with the turnovers (particularly fumbles) as we were last season, and Ryan Clarke doesn't carry the ball anymore. I think we're somewhere around +3 or +5 on the season so far.

Too bad the game isn't in East Hartford, easy access to casinos...

He's probably already banned from there though.

The one he was asked to leave was the Mardi Gras in Charleston, WV. He hasn't had any altercations at Wheeling Island yet (that we're aware). :D
