WVU Fans React to Arizona Win, Praise Nicco Marchiol
Even though one win isn’t enough on its own, WVU fans were able to enjoy watching their Mountaineers on Saturday night. West Virginia defeated Arizona 31-26 to even their overall record to 4-4 and move their Big 12 mark to 3-2.
What were WVU fans saying during the game, especially towards the end when the outcome became in doubt for a moment.

Brown needs to start Nicco the rest of the season. It could save his job and it also shows Nicco that he’s the guy from here on out. I just wonder if GG could’ve played tonight?

I've been telling y'all for weeks that Nicco should have been starting. He's the best passer WVU has had since Grier. There's a reason he's one of the highest rated QB recruits WVU has ever had.

This is the worst thing that can happen to WVU…
– NB wins an irrelevant bowl to finish 7-6.
– Fans are elated, all is forgiven.
– We hear all offseason about how we have NM starting at QB now, and if he would’ve started all of this season, we would’ve went 10-2.

It’s about time we put in the back up quarterback! Meal Brown will die on a promise made to Greene instead of taking a chance……and it didn’t even hurt!

The odds WV of converting ONE 4th down is 42%, 3 is incalculable, and 3 fourth downs for touchdowns is not even calculable !
I said after game 3 if WVU played a team that had a mediocre passing game , that was not Arizona !
Arizona’s decimated defense certainly didn’t hurt WV, or Brown !
Marisol was impressive albeit against a weakened defense! Bottom line , a win is a win , and Brown lives for another day !

the big question, ifhealthy, could greene have played as well as nicco? i seriously , don’t think so,,that qb school greene went to in pre season, was a laugher,, greene is not a qb, a running back he is,, not a passer, not with 8 interceptions,,thats terrible,,,nicco starts the next game,,AND THEN THERE IS THIS DEFENSE, WHICH IS HARD TO CALL IT A DEFENSE,, AND THE DC, AND RECEIVERS WHO ARE WIDE OPEN IN THE END ZONE, I MEAN WIDE OPEN, AND THE DEF. PLAYERS HAVENT A CLUE ON HOW TO PLAY THEIR POSITIONS,IF NEAL COMES BACK, DOES BAKE HAVE THE GONADS TO TELL HIM HIS DC AND SOME OTHER DEFENSIVE COACHES ARE FIRED AND EITHER HE FIND REPLACEMENTS, OR HE WILL,,,THIS SITUATION NOW IS ALL ABOUT WREN BAKER’S LOYALTY TO WVU OR TO BROWN,,,THIS DEFENSE REMINDS ME OF2012 DEFENSE, PEOPLE JUST LOST ON THE FIELD, TOTALLY UNCOACHED,, TOTALLY BEWILDERED, A WASTE OF SOME NIL MONEY AND SCHOLARSHIPS,,WHO SIGNED THESE DEFENSIVE BACKS,,THEY ARE LOST AND UNCOACHED,,THE DC NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS NEEDS TO BE FIRED,,MAYBE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SEASON,,HE IS THAT TERRIBLE, BUT THEN AGAIN, THE DC IS BROWN’S BUDDY,,, SO BROWN HAS LOYALTY TO HIM NOT WVU.. ENOUGH SAID. CONGRATS TO THE TEAM, AND THE THOUGHT THAT WE JUST ABOUT BLEW IT, SCARES ME TO NO END.

The defensive backs plays had been bad all season.Instead of getting better as the season progressed,they were terrible against Arizona. The defensive backs coach has to be replaced, the sooner the better. If it was not the plays of Nico Màrchiol, WVU would be 3-5 and probably out of any Bowls consideration.
