That was the glue The opponents were dumbfounded and kept saying “who knew?” So we finish the season, with 11 wonderful wins And look forward to September when it all starts again Cheers to our Champions in Old Gold and Blue and mad respect for our new leader, Coach Stew!

Let’s Go-o-o-o-o Mountaineers! -submitted by a wife proud to be married to a WVU alum A salute to the Mountaineers, let’s all raise a glass
To the Fiesta bowl champions that played with such class

We ran, we scored and we were victors that night
The Offensive led by the solid Pat White
And what can be said about our dear Owen
Just like the bunny, he kept goin’ and goin’
Not to be shown up, we saw Devine go
He’ll have a new highlight reel devoted to that show
A salute to our seniors that made the Sooners beware
And Adam Betnarick who couldn’t be there

The whole world heard that in the desert we’d be pounded
But all anyone heard that night was our musket that sounded
A solid, strong victory and yeah that is sweet
But it’s even more satisfying to say STFU to ESPN and Herbstreet

The team played with heart and soul. That was the glue
The opponents were dumbfounded and kept saying “who knew?”
So we finish the season, with 11 wonderful wins
And look forward to September when it all starts again

Cheers to our Champions in Old Gold and Blue
and mad respect for our new leader, Coach Stew!
Boys, we knew that performance was in ya’
Thanks for representin’ West “By God” Virginia!!

Let’s Go-o-o-o-o Mountaineers!

We had something to prove and got the job done. L Rod dumped us and left us to defend for ourselves. What L Rod and the press did not know.....Stu is twice the man L Rod is and HE is proud to be a West Virginian....and it darned sure was shown. We can all be proud of what our team did....period. It was an awesome display. In the time of trouble the best will always rise to the top. West Virginia's gain (losing L Rod) is Michigans lose. Sorry Michigan....he does not come with a return clause.....you bought him....he is yours. The press sees it as “Underdog”….what they did not see was Mountaineer Pride.
