Whether WVU would have been okay with Stew or not, you can't say he wasn't a great Mountaineer to heal us after what happened with RichRod. He wasn't our answer for the future but I have nothing but respect for that man, RIP Stew!
Even as I'm watching this in 2021 and the time is counting down in the 4th, I'm thinking how the f*ck did we lose to Marshall?!? Hahaha... what a game. RIP to one of the greatest men to represent WVU, Coach Stewart.
I saw that too after you said this. Also on first downs too. We scored with :16 left on the clock, if we had 6 or 7 more plays to score we would have ran out of time. Definitely a Herd Homer running the game clock. Lols.
Notice near the end as WVU is driving down field and picking up first downs that the time keeper lets two and three seconds run off the clock even after each WVU first down trying to run the clock out on WVU.
Doc should have been the mountaineer head coach after all he was an assistant back into the days and a good one too.. I did love me Stewart .. He should never neem treated like he was .. See you in football heaven Sir
Imagine being an assistant coach for your home state alma mater for 20 plus years. Also being heralded as one of the greatest recruiters, bringing some of the most talented recruits to that program. And then every time your alma mater had an opening for head coach, you get overlooked. Holiday will probably always be bitter, and who would blame him?
Thats what you call grabbing victory from the jaws of defeat, WVU just couldn't seem to do the deed until the end of the game when it was on the line, GO MOUNTAINEERS.....
I was totally put off by Marshall's coach this game and lost all respect for him when he couldn't even shake Bill's hand at the end of the game. So sad.
+Mark Roth It was his one opportunity to knock off WVU. They knew the playbook perfectly, put all their eggs into one basket as they tend to do when we play them and still couldn't pull it off. He was fuming. I agree though...classless move by Doc.
To beat all it was Coach Stew. He may not have been the greatest HC in WVU history, but he sure was a nice, great guy who loved WV and bled blue and gold.
This game pretty much sealed Marshall’s fate I’m no Marshall fan but I wonder if they actually won if they would be with WVU in the big 12 or another power 5 conference even better group of 5 conference 2010 was big realignment year
Any Mountaineer fan who denies the extreme importance of this "classic comeback" doesn't understand much about the dynamics of the state, do they? Sometimes, avoiding a catastrophic loss is just as important as scoring a tremendous win. Paterno and Penn State used to do this all the time to us from the late '60s through the early '90s; it was a swift kick to the nuts every damn time. But in college football, having the better, more historically solid program will occasionally create for your teams impossible wins that certainly should have been losses. This was clearly one such instance. Maybe by the 22nd century, the Herd will finally catch up....but I seriously doubt it.
Why didn't the announcers of ESPN use their " There is plenty of time!" saying for WVU during this game? If WVU was leading they would of used it for their opponent for sure. We have heard it over and over in other WVU games.
Now 12-0.... even with that WR dropping the ball BEFORE the Marshall wr scored on that first td, and the refs still counting it, should have been reviewed..
So this WVU team had GENO SMITH, NOEL DEVINE, JOCK SANDERS, TAVON AUSTIN, STEDMAN BAILEY, WILL JOHNSON (starter for the STEELERS) plus BRUCE IRVIN, ROBERT SANDS, JT THOMAS, BRANDON HOGAN KEITH TANDY, CHRIS NEILD, and PAT MCAFEE and still barley beat MARSHALL! RIP COach stew, but you were a terrible football coach great person though
Well Marshall has to live with the what if’s. What else do they have. Very little real fan support, no hope of playing in any bowl that matters(even if they deserved it), awful trash hole town. I’ll be in Morgantown this weekend to watch WVU probably get bashed by Texas. We are young and have a new coach and lost all our talent. Game will be totally sold out with a top atmosphere. Real football.
yeah this should’ve been a bcs big East championship season but we play bad in this game and we get embarrassed by UConn Stuart should’ve never been a head coach
He did that for a couple of years too. He inherited that 2007 team minus a few on defense. He had loaded teams every year but was mediocre. He was a great guy and absolutely loved WV, but he should have stayed as a recruiter and Special Teams coach.
Whether WVU would have been okay with Stew or not, you can't say he wasn't a great Mountaineer to heal us after what happened with RichRod. He wasn't our answer for the future but I have nothing but respect for that man, RIP Stew!
The goal post was leaning Marshall's way and they STILL couldn't make it!!
RIP My friend!!! You, and your videos are missed! 🙏😞

Every time WVU ran out of bounds, the clock clicked off an additional two seconds.
I saw that too after you said this. Also on first downs too. We scored with :16 left on the clock, if we had 6 or 7 more plays to score we would have ran out of time. Definitely a Herd Homer running the game clock. Lols.
One of the greatest games ...
even on our worst day, Marshall couldn't beat us lmao
Pecking Order
Cute story
Even a jacked up goal post couldn't save Marshall lol.

Miss you, Coach Stew.
Marshall, you had your chance. The only chance they ever had to beat us. Unbelievable!
Doc should have been the mountaineer head coach after all he was an assistant back into the days and a good one too.. I did love me Stewart .. He should never neem treated like he was .. See you in football heaven Sir
Marshall band started playin our win song early and i was like nooooooo
I really wish I could've been at that game. What a game!
@@ZekeThePlumber86 it was a great game ending sucked though. Marshall fans parted like the red sea at the end
Clock operator tried very hard to help Marshall win.
What? I've never seen a reference calling the missed FG good after the game. Care to share or is this another herd conspiracy theory?
Could you post the WVU vs Marshall game from 2011 or 2012?

Marshall will always be LITTLE BROTHER
Nope, go Herd
@@ryankutchenriteru sure about that
Biggest choke in college football
I remember being harrassed by our little sister Marshla fans. What a great game and great victory by WVU
“HurriCON, WV”
Im feeling this
This game pretty much sealed Marshall’s fate I’m no Marshall fan but I wonder if they actually won if they would be with WVU in the big 12 or another power 5 conference even better group of 5 conference 2010 was big realignment year
Lets go Marshall
I love how the ESPN announcers keep claiming a Marshall victory before the game was over!!! LOL!!!
So close. Just barely wide right.
Devine would have been vicious in modern NFL Offenses.
Bottom line was: I watched this game at a pizza place in Columbus, Ga. and Marshall had WVU beat until the last 2:34 seconds and they choked
Man, that last field goal attempt was soo close. I thought it went right above the bar, but I guess the officials had a better view!
It's still the closest field goal I've ever witnessed. I thought it was good live.

I completely forgot how close WVU was to losing. They had 1st and goal up 21-6 with 8 minutes left!
Holiday just looks like the absolute jerk he really is during this entire game.
Mark Roth yeah he also recruits convicts
Why didn't the announcers of ESPN use their " There is plenty of time!" saying for WVU during this game? If WVU was leading they would of used it for their opponent for sure. We have heard it over and over in other WVU games.
That kick was no where close to being good.
Marshall will never beat West Virginia.
Lol look now. WVU has reeked for year while Marshall stacks up wins
@@grantritter5315 Stll haven’t beaten us lol you turd
Agreed, hopefully that was just some beginning of the season rust
they need to step it up but i dont see any reason for anything less then a 9 or 10 win season
Well even if thats true, that Marshal receiver let go of the ball before he reached the endzone on that huge touchdown play. So I guess it evens out.
We are..........11 and 0.
Would kick WVU’s ass nowadays. They can’t win in a legit conference lol
@@johnwaffleh2p70 to do what
@@johnwaffleh2p70 if Oklahoma and Texas die maybe
Now 12-0.... even with that WR dropping the ball BEFORE the Marshall wr scored on that first td, and the refs still counting it, should have been reviewed..
We've beaten Texas MANY times, it's Oklahoma we haven't gotten past...... yet.
1:51:25
1:56:45
2:03:20
2:07:05
2:09:55
2:12:45
69-34 ouch but defense has to step it up we cant play like that against Oklahoma Texas or heck every team in the big 12
Marshall should've went for the block punt @1:42:21 it would've ended the game.
Why do they always have to review anything WVU does? That is so stupid!!!
So this WVU team had GENO SMITH, NOEL DEVINE, JOCK SANDERS, TAVON AUSTIN, STEDMAN BAILEY, WILL JOHNSON (starter for the STEELERS) plus BRUCE IRVIN, ROBERT SANDS, JT THOMAS, BRANDON HOGAN KEITH TANDY, CHRIS NEILD, and PAT MCAFEE and still barley beat MARSHALL!
RIP COach stew, but you were a terrible football coach great person though
What does BARLEY mean? It happened in Huntington, Marshall's home field....Marshall had the game won and choked...Are you BARLEY butthurt?
Jesse Williamson I agree with u but u sound mad as hell😂
Well Marshall has to live with the what if’s. What else do they have. Very little real fan support, no hope of playing in any bowl that matters(even if they deserved it), awful trash hole town.

yeah this should’ve been a bcs big East championship season but we play bad in this game and we get embarrassed by UConn Stuart should’ve never been a head coach
Pat Mcafee wasn’t on this team he graduated in 08
One of the worst offensive line games I can remember.
Vinny Curry was a beast, but this really was terrible.
Grant Wiley Esq. y’all lost because WV is your daddy
Then there was the 2019 season..................................
@@johnwaffleh2p70 Hey stupid, do you know who Grant Wiley is?
@@johnwaffleh2p70 *swing and a miss*
Ohio State won't play WVU. They are too scared to play WVU in morgantown!!!
Ohio state would wipe the floor with WVU anytime anywhere LMAO. Don’t think WVU has ever beat them
That’s exactly what ND thought as well
All that talent and bill stewart didnt know how to use it
He did that for a couple of years too. He inherited that 2007 team minus a few on defense. He had loaded teams every year but was mediocre. He was a great guy and absolutely loved WV, but he should have stayed as a recruiter and Special Teams coach.
