11:56 p.m. – Aric Goodman boots the game-winning field goal to complete a stunner. This one has to be even more difficult to swallow than the East Carolina loss. 17-14, Buffaloes, in overtime.
It will be interesting to hear what the team has to say again this week in post-game.

Post-Game Comments: WVU-Villanova
Our first venture into live blogging here at 20/20 was not without incident (a call to the company that made my laptop is forthcoming tomorrow to find out why it won’t even start now) but all in all, we’d like to think it was a success. Thanks to those who followed it and an even bigger thanks to those who commented and asked questions.
While I’m not going to transcribe quotes from my recorder yet (I’m going to take what I feel is a much-deserved break after this post), I am happy to share my views on WVU’s 48-21 victory over the Wildcats.
We’ll start with the good and move on to the not-so-good, at least from the Mountaineers’ perspective.
The Good:
- Pat White: 25-of-33, 208 yards passing, 5 TDs, 1 INT; 9 carries, 63 yards
Do you think this guy might have answered some of those who doubted his ability to pass?
Career-highs in passing attempts and passes completed. A stadium record for passing touchdowns in a game. Breaking the program record for total yardage in a career. Incredibly efficient and accurate. Made the opponent pay for stacking the box defensively.
As I said in the live blog, any enthusiasm must be tempered — after all, this was just one game against an overmatched opponent from a lower division. But if we are to glean anything from this performance, it is that the modified Mountaineer offense (specifically, White and his receivers) is ready, able and willing to throw and throw often. Opposing defensive coordinators should take notice.

7:54 p.m. — Just got out of the interviews with WVU’s coaches and players, and there were a good bit of interesting insights. My fellow colleagues at the DA and I are about to leave the stadium. An update is forthcoming after I arrive back at my house. I’ll have my final thoughts, some compelling statistics, and quotes from the locker room.
