BCS Week 2: USF 23, UCONN 25 »

I didn’t think we would see any Big East teams in the BCS this week, let alone two! Thankfully I was wrong.
I don’t think I will ever understand exactly how the damn BCS calculates their rankings. USF lost this week and dropped from #16 to #23. OK, that makes sense. Personally I was shocked to [...]

Big Questions of the Week… ECU Edition »

These are the big questions of the week (in my mind):
1. Why was Pitt rated in the top 25 to begin with? Granted, I’m a Big East fan, and want all the Big East teams to have great records, but what was the thinking there?
2. How did Clemson stay in the top 25 in the [...]

Pittsburgh Post Gazette finally gets it right »

I’m not agreeing with them about the big game of the year, I think it’s more Auburn and PITT but a writer at the Pittsburgh rag finally got it right.
A look at the Big East in projected order of finish:
1. West Virginia
Coach: Bill Stewart, 1st season, 1-0;
2007 record: 11-2 (5-2 in Big East, co-champs)

Washington Post puts WVU @ #8 »

Another day, Another Poll, Another #8 Ranking. The Washington Post’s poll is doing a countdown to kickoff poll release and today was WVU’s day. Check it out here.

One thing that is really getting old is the notion that losing Dick Fraud and some other coaches is going to change the outcome of this season. We [...]

Coaches Poll has WVU #8 in the country Pre-Season »

The first “official” pre-season poll was finally released. WVU comes in at a respectable #8 although personally I feel it should be more like 4. We beat the shit out of Oklahoma 8 months ago. WTF!? Do they really think that not having Dick Fraud on the sidelines will make that big of a difference? [...]

ESPN’s College Football has a new group of articles about clutch players and clutch teams both past and present. One part of this is a poll that asks who is the most clutch player right now.
Our boy Pat White is in this list and is running #2 to mega Homo-Tim Tebow.

Air Time… West Virginia Style »

Well, it certainly has been a while since I’ve been on here to share thoughts and insight into the world of WVU’s sports programs, and I have thought when I got the chance to sit down and write again I wanted it to be something big.
Well today, that something big happened.
I was interviewed on live [...]

Pat White makes top 10 list for BCS Icons… vote for him now! »

Go over to ESPN’s article about the BCS and it’s first 10 years. Kind of a love fest between ESPN and the BCS if you ask me but they do give Pat White some kudos so I’ll forgive them for trying to shoot down any talk of a playoff system.
So give it a read and [...]
