Maybe the frustration directed at Devon Dampier online last week — and angst geared at 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 Utes’ offensive effort.
There were a noticeable change in that tune Saturday, when Utah went on the road and beat woebegone West Virginia 48-14.
You can forgive Utah punter Orion Phillips, too, for giving Utah fans a humorous shoutout of Dampier on social media after the quarterback threw a career-high four touchdowns and, as a result, Phillips never got in the game.
National media personality — and former West Virginia punter — Pat McAfee was convinced by Saturday’s effort.
