The Mountaineers couldn't manage a win, but fans still have hope for the future.
The West Virginia Mountaineers didn't quite get the job done on Saturday against Arizona State, but despite a difficult and heartwrenching loss to the Sun Devils that officially eliminated the Mountaineers from bowl contention, fans were optimistic with their reactions after the loss.
The Mountaineers did keep the game close, storming back from a 12-point deficit in the second half to take a one-point lead before a late-game Sun Devils' field goal secured the win for the home team.
