Texts From Marshall Game Day

Texts From Game Day is back in business. Found a wonderful app to help me put this together for another year and it’s actually easier than ever — which is ironic because there’s nothing easier than publishing a post in which everyone else does the work!

Wait. Disregard that, OK?

Anyhow, another solid batch of dispatches from inside the stadium and around the country. We have nine states represented this week, which may be a record. I’m not worried if it is or if it isn’t because something tells me all the records are going down in 2012.

I’m talking about money and the power, power and the money. These texts are magic, Stan Van Gundy. My edits are  [in brackets].

Dabo Sweeney just had a chill run down his spine…


12:23
Dillon getting some words in on that kickoff

12:23
[Breathtakingly] beautiful

12:28
ALSTON 3:16 says BOOM, [SHAKE, SHAKE, SHAKE THE ROOM]!

12:30
Alston may be first ripped WVU running back since Zereoue so nice coincidence on jersey #20

12:36
Someone brought one out…and we COVERED PROPERLY! OH HAPPY DAY!! It truly is a new day!!!

12:40
Well, this game is over! Geno looks great! Goodnight and God Bless!

12:40
“We are NOT cheering for Marshall!” – my son upon waking from a nap and realizing the game was on.

12:46
Ironic play of the day – Clarke recovers a fumble.

12:46
5 year old son; “Daddy, do you like Marshall?” Me; “HAHAHAHAHAHAA *pause…dead serious voice* no.”

12:54
It’s miserable in the stadium. I actually wish I was watching this one on tv. It’s only Marshall, after all.

12:54
My legs are sweating.

1:00
QB sneak from the 4….interesting

1:07
Tour de France cycling ads on FX appropriate for Marshall game. Both have long history of cheating & disgrace.

1:10
BabaBuie

1:10
Peter Crouch > Eric Crouch

1:11
Was that the stick/draw for 6?!?!

1:12
ANDREW CUTS THROUGH THE DEFENSE LIKE A BUIE KNIFE!

1:12
Nice delayed draw for the TD! Somebody get Doc a beer!

1:12
Stick draw? Stick draw.

1:11
How do you feel that Marshall does not subscribe to the Daily Mail?

1:12
Nehlen just spilled his hot fudge celebrating that play call

1:18
And I thought Miller couldn’t cover !!  Jenkins makes Miller look like Deon Sanders

1:21
Oppa gangnam style.

1:22
Aaaaaand it’s officially football season…AUSTIN 3:16 just went a long distance untouched (mostly)

1:23
And the thunder rolls.

1:24
Our offense is like jennie finch’s hotness. We’re so good its almost comical

1:24
The entire defensive unit for Clemson just had a ‘Nam-esque PTSD style flashback. They’re in a corner weeping now.

1:28
Maybe the Big East should invite Marshall…

1:39
Tv coverage sucks, they don’t have a game clock

1:42
Man. Today I’ve seen more balls on the carpet than when [really dirty statement here]

1:47
Mountaineers have scored 114 points in their last 3 halves of foot all. You think about that!

1:48
413 total yds in 1H…and it was just an OK half.

1:49
34 in the first half == the 2nd highest output of the Stew Administration. Still, I cried during the Leave No Doubt tribute.

1:49
There is an Asian flag twirler for Marshall. If gangham style comes out its over.

2:00
Oh my sweet brick

2:08
My beers keep getting warm. I should have brought a coozie in.

2:10
The way wvu is playing this might turn into sexts from gameday

2:12
We will find out if Holgs has any serious dislike for Marshall if he uses this field position for an onside kick

2:15
Shawn Alston is a full grown man. And he is swole. And Chuck Landon can go _____ himself.

2:19
Tell Mr. Luck that Sedexo needs a good “talkin'” to!

2:20
Think Dana told a return team member to block in the back so we can get Geno more yards?

2:22
BabaBlockie

2:23
Yakety punt.  Decidedly not gangnam style.

2:24
Can’t do that in thebig 12

2:24
WVU Special Teams ain’t so f’n special!

2:24
Give me a [lunch] break. Never punt. Ever.

2:27
Eat [things] pitt

2:27
Remind me who our special teams coord is? Wanna make sure I’m pissed at correct guy. Deforrest?

2:29
Tick tick tick on the Joe D/ Steve D special teams honeymoon.

2:34
Holy [bovine]. That was exactly like the Major’s play. Busted play. QB keep. Touchdown!

2:34
Geno does the Major

2:39
Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuce

2:53
Facemask the ball carrier? Sure. Why not.

Bill & Ted appreciate this point total

3:20
I’ve never seen a team down 42 points talk so much [stuff (anything)].

3:22
Oh [say, can you see?]. Gotta punt again!

3:39
I like Holgorsen and all, but there’s no need for that

3:42
What does it say that the only part of that score that matters to me is that marshall managed to score 34?

3:48
That was pretty much a butt whoopin whadnyit

3:56
It’s a good thing those Marshall players had our hand signals, that might have gotten ugly
