Maybe the frustration directed at Devon Dampier online last week and the angst geared toward the Utah football team was a bit much. During Utah’s 34-10 loss to Texas Tech, plenty of folks were critical of the Utes’ starting quarterback and the team’s offensive effort.
However, there was a noticeable change in that tune on Saturday, when Utah went on the road and defeated woebegone West Virginia 48-14. You can also forgive Utah punter Orion Phillips for giving Utah fans a humorous shoutout to Dampier on social media after the quarterback threw a career-high four touchdowns and, as a result, Phillips never got into the game.
National media personality and former West Virginia punter Pat McAfee was convinced by Saturday’s effort. What about others? Here’s a sampling of how social media reacted to the Utes’ win over West Virginia.
