WVU Football Fans React to Poor Offensive Showing Against Ohio

ATHENS, OHIO – The WVU football team had a disappointing showing against Ohio on Saturday evening, falling 17-10.

The offense struggled and failed to capitalize off of the defense allowing just 17 points and forcing three interceptions. Redshirt junior quarterback Nicco Marchiol was pulled in the fourth quarter for redshirt senior Jaylen Henderson.

Marchiol eventually returned, but only finished 15-of-26 passing with 178 yards and one interception.

Fans took to social media to criticize the performance in a game that was very winnable for WVU.

Offense is NONEXISTENT

WVU getting beat up in the trenches by Ohio is not a good sign for the rest of the season

The WVU football fall has been something insanely sad to witness. One of the most passionate fan bases have watched their program get worse and worse and worse and worse. Used to be consistently top 25 now we can’t even beat Ohio or sniff a 10 win season

Going to take a while to beat the Neal Brown out of this program.

Idea: stop trying to run the ball with Nicco and Ash

I thought WVU football got rid of Neal Brown?

Parker Navarro has thrown three INT’s and Ohio is STILL beating WVU?

WVU should run a fake punt on 2nd down, probably more likely to work than a regular play.
