I'll get flamed for this, but who cares: the WVU game is the first game

Since I can remember that I expect a loss. Of course, I'll be cheering for our Cougars and HOPING for a win, but I'm expecting a loss.

You might ask yourself, "does that mean the guns really thought we would beat UCLA and the likes of Michigan last year?"

Yep and yep...I've worn very blue goggles my entire life. Looks as if the blue tint is finally wearing off.

Here's to hope!

I agree with you. I'd be legitimately shocked if we won. Last time I felt that

That may have something to do with the opponents. AZ being the worst.

Define "smoked." That conjures up a no contest, over early, win by 4+

If the offense has to many 3 and outs it will be a long day for the defense

I see flashes of Brilliance in this offense

No way we get smoked. Our D is too good. WV won't score more than 24 pts.

I don't know why you expected to beat Utah the last few years.

I think it was pretty fair to give them a good chance in the bowl game

jensen46

Because anything happens in a rivalry game

anything can happen in any game, doesn't mean one expects a win.

It's been a long time since I expected a Utah win. I expect to win all the rest.

Last time I truly expected a loss was @Boise State in 2014.

If WVU had the same kind of defense Utah and UCLA has I might agree with you

This is the worst defense we have played since UofA

Dr T-bone

9/22/16 10:19am

I thought we would lose to both UCLA and Utah this year. I give us the same chance of beating WVU as UoA 50/50

indocoug

9/22/16 10:39am

The way the D is playing, BYU will be in the game. To me that doesn't translate to "expect a loss". But I am worried.

WVU is no better than Utah and UCLA

It's kind of silly that anyone would feel differently about WV than Utah/UCLA/AZ

I expect Offense to man-up and account for 21 points; Defence or Special Teams

That's on you. If you didn't expect a loss vs. Utah last year then you hadn't been paying attention. I think our chances
