Re: Magic
I will say this much....... App does carry a certain type of "magic" with them on most occasions. We don't ever, EVER, quit and we seem to find a way to win even if it is ugly. This team needs to wake up earlier in games. However, for today, I was really impressed with their never say die attitude and the way that the whole team lifted each other up over the last 30 minutes. As always, it is great to be a Mountaineer!

Re: Magic
That's a positive angle. I would argue it's not really magic to dominate teams for a half or a quarter that we used to dominate for entire games.
But yes, hope the team can start faster in future games.

Re: Magic
Point blank, the offense is not as good as it's been in previous years. Three first downs in a half don't allow you to have time to open up the playbook or get into any type of play-calling rhythm. Last year, we could run on anybody. This year, not so much.EastHallApp wrote: ↑Sat Oct 14, 2017 10:00 pmThat's a positive angle.

Our defense allows plays when they've had to carry the team for an entire half. But, we also start with a vanilla defensive game plan and tend to turn up the complexity as the game progresses.

Re: Magic
The defense was about as dominate as possible in the second half. Sims and Boggs were unblockable. The offense has to get going earlier in games....my heart can't take many more of these Cardiac App games.

Re: Magic
Even when it was 20-0, I felt App could win.
This team, if anything, knows they can play in the fourth quarter.

Re: Magic
There is magic on the mountain. Reminder, 3 of our 11 starters are true freshman. We had none last year on offense. Our snaps are certainly better, and we have less dead ball personal fouls, however, run blocking assignments and timing has room to improve.WASU 93 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 14, 2017 10:08 pmPoint blank, the offense is not as good as it's been in previous years.

Re: Magic
The first half was downright frustrating to watch on both sides of the ball. Whatever adjustments were made at halftime, were obviously perfect, but it sure would be nice to see that kind of effort for four quarters. These games are aging me.

Re: Magic
Aside from the talent, Parker set the tone up front. He was nasty and he made everyone else better because of it.
