To cap off the worst month of being a Mountaineer fan in recent history, the West Virginia Mountaineer basketball team fell out of both the AP and the USA Today/Coaches poll. WVU fell from 23rd last week to 31st in the AP poll with 15 measly voting points while in the coaches they fell from [...]

The BCS selection show was just on (how agonizingly boring) and after listening to 20 stupid teasers for a half hour here is how it all flushed out:

My rock star buddy sent me a funny link from a Georgia blog starring Adult Swim’s Carl called BCS: Bad College Stupid
[EDIT by Mountaineerbob]
Ok I don’t care who you’re a fan of, this is funny. I decided to put it on our site for that reason. If you can’t laugh at this there is just [...]

Check it out:
WVU #1 on ESPN’s Top 16. With eight first place votes and the comment, “The stakes in the Backyard Brawl have never been higher. A victory over Pitt sends WVU to the BCS title game. Who saw that coming after the loss to South Florida two months ago?”
Eyes on the prize, eyes on [...]

Arkansas = The only SEC I’ve ever cheered for! Thanks Hogs!

All LSU had to do was win out and they were in. Not as easy as it seems this season. WVU has to make sure this type of thing doesn’t happen in Morgantown tomorrow. We have to stay focused. I’m sure Coach Rod is [...]

I’ve been on every college football site in the past couple of days and reading the plethora of articles about what needs to happen for my ‘Eers to go to New Orleans and play on Jan 7th.
