WTF on the camera switch during Devines last long run in the WV game? They switch to a close up shot of him as hes racing for the endzone so you cant tell wheres at on the field or where the defenders are.

They should have had Ray Lewis in the booth for the whole game. He sounds like a great color analyst in the making.

I, too, was amazed at how good Ray Lewis was at analysis

why the hell is the guy who is only on the air for 4 minutes making the most intelligent and insightful comments?
The play where Lewis called for the out after one step of the QBs drop and explained why afterward was fantastic.

I feel cheated as a viewer that I don't get that type of insight on every play.

Absolutely. Wouldn't it be great to have an analyst in the booth who actually explained coverages, patterns, formations etc... As someone who never played above junior high, I would love to have the complexities fully explained, but instead we usually get total idiots, who do nothing but tell me the blatantly obvious. I think Gary Danielson is just about the best of the current crop at actually talking about formations and coverages on occasion.

My gosh...Noel Devine just gave WVU's offense another option

this backfield is unreal

MyTurn2Raise · #15 09-13-2007, 10:30 PM

amazing how WVU's defense has completely taken over

also, TCU's redzone offense is making me sweat my bets more than I should

MT2R...sorry if this is the wrong forum, but what do you think of Alabama -3 against Arkansas on Saturday. I love the Tide here.

MyTurn2Raise · #17 09-13-2007, 10:40 PM

I love the tide as well

Why did Maryland kick the xp?
They score a TD to go down 31-13 with under 6 minutes left.
If they are still trying to win, they have to go for 2 there.
I realize there is less than a 1 in 20 chance of it mattering, but it still seemed absurd.

Oh well...

MyTurn2Raise · #18 09-13-2007, 10:46 PM

interesting that he onside kicks it down 17, but didn't go for 2....more like idiotic

MyTurn2Raise · #19 09-13-2007, 10:48 PM

taking a sack on 4th down there is pretty bad

West Va's offense is indeed explosive, but I didn't see much consistency. That might come as the season progresses. Their defense was solid, not spectacular.

Overall, unless Maryland is a lot better than I think they are (and I don't think they are that good), I'm not sure West Va is a top 10 team, much less #4.
