The South Florida Bull’s disheveled start to the Skip Holtz era took another lump from the struggling Syracuse Orangemen this past Saturday. South Florida dropped to 3-2 due to the home loss by a final score of 13-9 (Yuck! No good can come from a score like that). Offense has been a bit evanescent for the Bulls with turnovers being the main culprit for their severe lack of any consistency. BJ Daniels has the wheels to blow by most defenders at this level, but...
Boom Shakalaka! And the crowd goes wild, for at the least the majority of the first quarter anyway. After that the stadium was very laid back and chillin’ as West Virginia waylaid the Rebels 49-10. At one point a mammoth wave even coursed five continuous laps around Milan Puskar Stadium. The stagnant lights on the scoreboard flickered momentarily before beaming brightly the numbers in excess of 40 for the first time since playing Villanova in ‘08. Coach Stewart silenced the merciless Mountaineer fans that...
It was a long Saturday afternoon for the Rebels of UNLV when they made their first trip to Morgantown. The Mountaineers hung 35 points on them in the first half and cruised to a 49-10 victory. This was the first time in the last 13 games that the West Virginia offense scored more than 35 points. The final tally of 49 was the most points scored by a Mountaineer offense since putting up 66 on Connecticut in 2007. Head coach Bill Stewart and his...
My, how sweet a home and home with UNLV could be? I can see the headlines now: “Mountaineer Fans Ravage Las Vegas – Casinos Bankrupt from Money Drain in Complimentary Alcohol Beverages”. Sadly, these headlines will never come to fruition. UNLV will be taking a beating, taking three quarters of a million dollars, and going home never to be thumped by the Old Gold and Blue again. There is still plenty of intrigue involved with playing an MWC team. First off, that conference wants...
It seems as clear as Pacific Ocean water where the issues lie in the offensive deficiencies. The offensive line is struggling like a chained and locked up Chris Angel dropped in a water tank. Like Chris Angel, this crew will come out alive and well, perhaps even with BCS trophy to showcase in the Mountaineer Athletic Center. The offensive line returned four starters from last season. They were able to instill depth in the roster and even add some solid talent. They are not...
UNLV played on the road in Reno against their in-state rival. The Battle for the Fremont Cannon, the trophy going to the winner, was taken home again by the #25 Nevada Wolfpack after a 44-26 victory. The Rebel’s offense continued to struggle, even when opportunities arrived on a silver platter in the form of turnovers. Nevada dished out two fumbles and an interception to the welcoming Reb hands. The Rebs held tight and forced a turnover on downs. In the end Nevada was able...
