I don’t know, Saturday wasn’t what you wanted or what you expected. But then again, it was a home game at night against Oklahoma and it had a major say in the Big 12 championship picture and perhaps even the College Football Playoff. That’s what you sign up for, what you sell your fans, teams and boosters on, when you jump off the Big East and onto the Big 12.

Is that enough? The outcome wasn’t enough and the full performance wasn’t enough, and I get that. But the opportunity and the stage and the fact that being in Morgantown, West Virginia, was, for a little bit, a factor, was that enough? Here we are talking about how this was the biggest home game since 2007 or maybe 1993. It took a lot of time and work and ups and downs and planning and patience to get to Saturday night.

I really do believe that matters and that should matter. I just don’t know how much that matters or how much it should matter. I’m back for revenge. I lost a battle, that ain’t happening again. I’m at your throat like strep. I text, strapped with a pen. My edits are in brackets].

4:48:
The last time my kid was at a game at Mountaineer Field (Tavon) Austin 3:16 opened a can of whoop [anatomy]…just sayin…

5:35:
Everybody freaking about the weather & I’m like “pffft! I survived the Brawl in ’05. This ain’t [bad]!”

7:31:
Thank god the cursed (literally I think) Gold jerseys were left in the locker room tonight.

7:31:
For the record I’m 1 row from literally falling out of the stadium and it IS cold as [SIBERIA] up here.

7:53:
Oklahoma gonna get that [anatomy] kicked after those shenanigans

8:02:
Fighting already. [Truck] yeah

8:03:
“Baker Mayfield” sounds like a cheap furniture line “designed” by a b-list celebrity. Am I right?

8:03:
What’s with the empty seats?

8:19:
Sitting here, i find myself missing the Godzillatron

8:19:
And there’s Jennings with the Fall

8:19:

 

8:22:
That one’s on us, Oklahoma.

8:24:
This weather will not be conducive to good Skyler

8:27:
Now McCoy. [Not] great

8:27:
Oh good. Our one healthy RB is now laying on the ground after 1 play.

8:31:
gonna be a long night

8:32:
Yep. Bad Skyler. This [skit’s] not auspicious

8:34:
Here i was about to politely ask the jackass in front of me to sit down. But i dont need to see this [snow].

8:35:
Justin Arndt having a great game

8:35:
Arndt whiffed on 2 big plays now

8:36:
Stiff armed by the smallest Sooner. Quite an an achievement

8:37:
Okay…this isn’t good. We always fold when the bright lights come on in prime time! Get it together!

8:37:
ou brought a pep band. hearing “boomer sooner” bringing back bad memories of navy playing “anchors aweigh” non-stop

8:38:
Surrounded by Trump supporters. Lord help me.

8:38:
Run it all nite long.

8:38:
But maybe w/o false start penalties.

8:38:
WTF?

8:39:
I hate skyler

8:40:
Big game Skyler is here. Wildly inaccurate, not seeing open receivers

8:41:
Better get a stop here

8:42:
This is getting ugly fast, and no healthy running backs

8:44:
Steve Aoki at mountaineer Field on the sound system. I am the only person around me excited about this.

8:44:
6:30 to go in the first….this game is over. Can’t and won’t stop the run.

8:44:
13

8:45:
Only question is how many points OU scores.

8:45:
So many opportunities to make a tackle missed.

8:46:
Such generous spots…

8:47:
So. Uh. Christmas with Mickey Mouse?

8:48:
Need a Bill Stewart hologram on the sideline.

8:49:
Oregon hire Dana yet?

8:49:
Well the snow was cool

8:49:
This team is scared

8:49:
To death

8:51:
Well…I mean….ah mango farm it. I should ha brought some ‘shine.

8:52:
Ballgame.

8:53:
Sad when you look at our snow covered red zone and realize irs the end of the 1st and the only marks on it are from the band taking the field in pregame.

8:53:
Is it just me or are we not passing the eye test so far?

8:53:
desperation already in the air.

8:53:
What a show

8:53:
This will be a beat down

8:53:
Dana coaching like he’s got a new job

8:58:
Is Arndt playing football? Like tackle football? Doesn’t look like it.

8:58:
Guy to my right reeeeeeeally doesn’t like HCDH. Like…more than I dislike certain orange skinned cheetos.

9:00:
Special flash sale on chaise lounges by Baker Mayfield at Chuck’s Furniture Mart!

9:00:
Well at least the other end zone will get snow plowed.

9:00:
All in all, we’ve done well with an NAIA QB

9:05:
To borrow Mike’s line…head down, sleeping! Goodnight folks.

9:05:
Looks like winter. Feels like fall.

9:07:
Look up [calamity] on Wikipedia and you’ll see live video of this game. Geez.

9:07:

9:07:
I bet Justin Crawford makes the spiciest Gorditas but they fall apart before you can bite into them

9:09:
My God. I can’t.

9:12:
We were not ready for this game.

9:12:
What is this? What is this team that’s never played before?

9:12:
This is why we cant have nice things

9:12:
Lots of quit in this team tonight

9:13:
We have got to fire Dana! Did I get here late? Sorry. Went to dinner with the wife.

9:19:
Can’t get rolled like this & garner respect. Still a lot to play for.

9:19:
People are going home.

9:19:
Jennings thinks he has 15′ long arms

9:20:
we deserve to lose this

9:21:
Should’ve thrown the fade … Thats right. I said it.

9:21:
Get in the red zone, turn it over.

9:24:
Video of this game should appear under the Urban Dictionary entry for “Stepping On One’s [Doormat]”

9:25:
I hope we fall out of the top 25

9:25:
There goes noble. At least he landed some punches

9:27:
#Big12Refs CEARLY want Bedlam to be a defacto Big 12 title game. HORRIFIC officiating

9:27:
Attitude reflects leadership

9:27:
This is brutal. [Palm] slapped and total loss of composure

9:36:
Win some, lose some, but can’t put this out there for the world to see.

9:36:
A guy in a red truck ran over a girl’s foot at the tailgate – little did I know it would become a metaphor for this game

9:36:
Crazy thing is we don’t fumble inside the 5 twice, muff a punt, muff and rough the kicker and muff another, it’s 14-14.

9:38:
This is why you always agree on a safe word first.

9:38:
Yay. They missed the extra point

9:39:
I did #dadlyfe [chores] all day to keep me occupied before this game. Was so pumped to watch. Dana has never stripped and caulked a sink. [Aardvark].

9:42:
The Arndt story, like the Sky one is sweet, but this is what happens

9:49:
It’s a terrible night to be a Mountaineer, wherever you may be!

9:49:
seven unanswered points!

9:51:
Watching this is like getting kicked in the [neck] over and over

9:51:
Think we could trade Dana to Oregon for some cash or something? Maybe some free Nike gear?

9:51:
It looked like Dana was yelling at Bob Stoops. I love it.

9:52:
Was Dana just going after Stoops?!

9:59:
The halftime show themed of “summon the heroes” is apropos

9:59:
i think we’ve found our syracuse, btw

10:02:
Dana and Bedenbaugh almost just threw down on the WV.

10:09:
Well, that went well

10:12:
It’s not that WVU isn’t a playoff team, it’s that a higher ranked team is moosing them at home.

10:17:
Go home, Skyler you’re… Just terrible

10:18:
well, at least the defense got to rest

10:18:
Beautiful. Passing gets us nothing, running is successful, and we pass/piss away another drive for a pick 6

10:18:
Wonder if Skyler will pout again during the post game

10:21:
Just run the [oval] ball. Skyler is in over his head

10:22:
This is almost as depressing as 13-7. Almost.

10:22:
Maybe we can sign Charlie Strong

10:29:
Mayfield has thrown 7 passes? Wow. This, my friends, is the failure of the 3-3-5

10:41:
13!

10:44:
four more to go

10:50:
My wife just sad, “we are still going to win.” My 12 yo daughter who knows nothing about fb, said “what game are you watching?”

10:50:
Kyzir White is a Dawg. Has papers and everything.

10:55:
three to go

10:57:
Sad thing is, this [ball game] could be tied

11:01:
Baker Mayfield has a great line of couches.

11:12:
two to go

11:16:
Thanks to all those best fans in America for leaving early.

11:17:
Tyler!!!!! Damnit!

11:21:
CEARLY me & the Boy leaving at the half to thaw out was the key to this turn around. Well that & Crawford.
