WVU

NLAuburn,

Totally different offense this year.  Same great players, just less bubble screens, some I formation, a lot more of Pat White throwing the ball...oh yeah, have you guys heard of a kid named Devine?  Tell your DBs to look behind them...he's the kid who wears #7 and is handing the ball to the refs...

Your avatar is something to behold...

See ya in Mo-town!!!!

Yeah, I've heard of your boy Devine!

Do me a favor though, go look and see how many yards Darren McFadden had against Auburn's defense last year.  Even the best RB's in the nation can't do squat on our front seven. And we do have pretty much the same D as last year, so yeah I can talk about the past.  Tell you what...I'll spot your boy Noel 50 yards before the game so that you can come tell me he rushed for a hundred!

See ya in Mo-town!

NLA...Surely you are joking.  Some comments are merely a little extra bravato, but that was down right stupid.  You dont think Devine will get 50 yards?    I wouldnt be surprise if he got that much on one play.  As a matter of fact, I would venture to guess that there is a better chance of him having a 50 yard run rather than him not getting 50 yards total.  Come on NLAburn, some of your posts were making some sense but that was down right dumb...

You guys held McFadden down pretty good but Felix Jones ripped you for 7 yards a carry.  Knowshawn got ya for 5 yds a carry.  Didnt Miss St beat you guys?  The same team we smoked in Starkville....

Maybe you just need to let your avatar do the talking for you.  I bet you both of the those girls know about as much about college football as you do...

Ohoolahan,

Now this is what I came here for.  I just love to make you SEC boys look silly. 

First of all lets agree on some things...

1.  WVU is a rushing football team as we were the #3 ranked rushing team in the country at 297 ypg.

2.  Auburn was ranked #6 in overall defense.  That is good, but look who was right behind you...ahh yeah good old Blue and Gold.  WVU #7(we will take that, we dont consider ourselves a defensive team, although we were pretty good last year)

3.  Auburn had the #29 ranked rush defense in the country.(We were #18 by the way).

4.  WVU played against 2 teams that were ranked higher in rush defense than Auburn.  Cincinatti  was ranked #19 and we drop 280 yds on them.  Oklahoma was ranked #17 and ran for 347 against them(the most ever allowed by an Oklahoma team for a bowl). 

So I am confused as to why a lot of Auburn fans simply assume that they will be able to stop us just because their defense "are winners"???? 

And please come back at me with more than just our "easy schedule that we played"...I realize Aburn posters dont have a lot to hang their hat on these days other than their schedule, but you guys have to become a little more creative.  You can even start lying if you wanted to, that would at least be more interesting.

Then why do you assume that UWV will be able to run all over us just b/c their offense  "are winners"????

And in regarding my previous post...that was just a little fun trash talking. Don't be such a little girl!!!

NLA- The winners comment came from one of your buddies(blamemonkey). 

I guess I assumed that WVU will run all over you because you didnt show that you could consistently stop it last year(you were only 5th best in your own conference), and no one has stopped WVU in about 4 years.  Sorry, but when you see 300 ypg over and over, you just ASSUME that it will happen forever.  We have 5 returning starters on the O-line.  Devine does not have to split carries with Slaton this year, and Pat White is greatest rushing college QB of all time(or at least he will be in about 750 yards).  I could probably name a couple more reasons if you would like...

How do you know that I am not a little girl??

Jimmepenis,

Since you are so interested what West Virginia has done, maybe you should go talk to the folks on the Bama page.  They also love to live in the past.  Congratulations on your superior rushing defense from last season.  Good luck maintaining that standard with your four returning starters. 

Also, don't act like it is a good thing that "Devine does not have to split carries with Slaton this year..." Slaton was your starter, and believe it or not, you will miss him.  Keep thinking that WV is going to run wild on AU, and you will be in for a rude awakening.

WDE!

AuburnSoldier,

I will never bash a great Mountaineer such as Steve Slaton, but he was easily the 2nd best back on our team...probably as early as week 1.  RR slowly started working Devine in, then he went away from him, then he went back to him.  Go on the WVU board and simply ask the question, "Who was the better back last year, Devine or Slaton?".  I would almost guarantee a unanimous answer...Noel Devine.  We will miss Owen Schmidt, but not Slaton.  Oh yeah, since we havnt actually started this year yet, what else do we have to talk about?  What I do know is this...the defense dominated the offense the entire spring including the Blue and Gold game.  Does that make them special?  I dont know...they shut down one of last year's most potent offenses returning 8 starters including the entire O-Line and a Heisman trophy candidate.  But, we werent really talking about our defense...  Always like a good old SEC boy to change the subject though...good debating skills.
