Jonathan MartinHostJustin WalkerHostObviously, I gave everyone my thoughts on last week's game, the Oklahoma State loss.
So go ahead and share with everyone your thoughts on that game and where you stand after the Mountaineers lost to Oklahoma State.
Yeah, I mean, I'll be semi-brief, but to the point, I think, Kuz, that there can be multiple things true at one time.
And I guess the first thing I would say is I'm not quite ready to cancel the season and fire a bunch of people and do all that.
Now, as you said, there is a pretty important game coming up this weekend, and...
I also think it's true that we're liable to look up six weeks from now and say, yeah, okay, I don't think that Oklahoma State loss is too bad.
But I also think it's okay and understandable if a lot of people, including myself, are literally frustrated.
Look, Kuz, I ended the show last week kind of recapping the Virginia game saying we saw what we saw.
And meaning we saw the defensive stands, we saw the offensive performance, we witnessed every bit of that with our own two eyes.
I would also just remind you it's not an excuse, but as bad as that performance was, it's also the Oklahoma State team that put up almost 600 yards against Oregon just prior, a couple weeks prior to that game.
So I don't – while it's not an excuse for Zach Alley in this defense, I do think at some point maybe, just maybe you have to tip the cap and say – That team and that offense is pretty darn good.
I would also kind of just put a bow on it by saying I did change my prediction against Oklahoma State just after the Virginia game.
But if you go back and look at our preseason predictions, I even said then, and I said before the show, that I was more concerned about the Oklahoma State matchup than I was the Virginia matchup because Oklahoma State's positive was West Virginia's weakness, and so it shouldn't come as a huge surprise, but we'll see how this team bounces back this weekend.
I agree, and I got on my thumbnail, Jonathan, and we'll do our score predictions later so we won't get too far ahead of ourselves here.
Some people might think it's way too early in the season to be throwing this term out there, but I think this is a must-win football game for the Mountaineers.
When you look at the state of the fan base right now and how frustrated people are, how tired the fan base is of mediocrity and losing and all that, not being competitive in the Big 12, and when you look at what's ahead on the schedule, I think it's a must-win football game.
