West Virginia’s Week 2 matchup with the Ohio Bobcats resulted in an extremely disappointing road loss for the Mountaineers by a final score of 17-10. They were outplayed in every facet of the game by the defending champions of the MAC, who picked up a win over a power conference opponent on their home field.
While a loss on the road against Ohio is alarming enough for the Mountaineers, the manner in which they lost is a cause for great concern. Just two weeks into the season, is it already time to panic in Morgantown?
Let’s put it this way: if the Mountaineers play as poorly as they did against Ohio in every game for the remainder of the season, they likely wouldn’t win another game.
