Despite sloppy play, WVU wins Backyard Brawl

Found November 26, 2011 on Eye and Eer: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Tino Sunseri
TEAMS: Pittsburgh Panthers

If that is truly the final Backyard Brawl, then West Virginia gave its fans a performance to remember. Tino Sunseri, well, gave Pittsburgh fans a shot to the gut. After leading 17-7 at halftime, West Virginia's defense played like the 2010 version and held the Panthers to just a field goal and sacked Sunseri 10 times. Sunseri has had his issues in the past, but Friday's performance was just more proof why the Panthers need to find a better option. He held onto the ball too long and was a big reason why West Virginia was able to pull out a 21-20 victory. Even with the clock running down in the final minute of the game, Sunseri kept taking sacks and was flagged for illegal grounding. To read the rest of the story go on over to Crystal Ball Run.
