No go WVU thread?

Paging HartfordHank:

Can you please tell us how much better the ACC is than the Big East because NCSU beat The Ville again?

the orange bowl looks like a miami football game is happening when they show the above shot from a blimp.

 

[jbdphi]

OMG they've put in the backup QB in the 3rd quarter of a BCS bowl game because it is such a bad blowout. Never seen that before.

 

[traitor71]

I wouldn't mind seeing a team hit an 80 spot in a game. Getting away from the game itself however, it's worth noting that there is zero interest around here in this game. There was a time when you could go to the Orange Bowl game and see powerhouse teams and really enjoy yourself. Now the BCS gives us teams that don't deserve to be in these games and they aren't even remotely compelling. They need to find a way to give us the best teams in the biggest games somehow.

Did u guys see that Our AD has pulled himself from consideration for the full-time AD gig? Chan 30 just announced that Uconn is starting a national search beginning tomorrow.

 

[Jimdish255]

and now I am reminded of just how god awful Train is

That guy gives me the creepy Sanduskees.

Back to the game I'm acatually glad about the WVU tonight. We would have done the same thing maybe in a different conference, maybe not. The ACC hasn't got anything to brag about this year and we are possibly going to be a MUCH stronger FB conference in the near future. With 2 FL destinations and Texas do we really miss road games in Pittsburgh and Syracuse?

There is a thread a few spots down on the board about it.

[Wonder what pissed him off. He seemed pretty gung-ho 10 minutes ago.]

Edit: Sounded kind of flip. I hope there's nothing like that going on because he seems like a dedicated and decent guy.

WVU trying to shut it down but Clemson won't let them. 70-26!

 

[MattMang23]

I think West Virginia just scored again.

 

[Dann]

watching austin just makes me want to get newsome here so bad.

 

[upstater]

WV's is not a very handsome or good-looking fanbase. Sometimes stereotypes hew close to reality.

 

[Dann]

country roadsssssssss

 

[BugsyCT]

Well, despite all the off-the-field crapola with realignment and lawsuits, props to WVU on a tremendous performance tonight. That was a major league curb-stomping.

 

[HartbeatHusky]

Congrats to WVU. As much as I disdain their lawsuit against the Big East they deserve credit for this win. Also it's great for the ACC to once again prove that it is not BCS ready.

 

[Dann]

props to geno, he did a great job with the post game media. good lunk eers, hopefully uconn can find a home and we can get a ooc going and one day in the far away future be in the same eastern conf.

That doesn't mean they aren't nice people.

 

[ZooCougar]

I simply don't understand what it is people like about Train.

Same thing as they like about Coldplay... Boggles the mind.

 

[Adios]

WVU football proved itself to be elite. They could have won all their games and be national champs. All they are missing is that, just a national championship. We were fortunate to get one win against them. Excellent showing for the Big East. Forget the ACC.

 

[MilliniumPrince]

I believe they could have put up close to 90 if they really tried. How does a conference champion get beaten that thoroughly

 

[ZooCougar]

WVU just scored again.

 

[uconNYC]

WVU I believe usually comes in the 30's in the recruiting rankings. Shows that you don't have to have monster recruiting classes to be a competitive BCS team.

 

[ZooCougar]

WV's is not a very handsome or good-looking fanbase. Sometimes stereotypes hew close to reality.

They also have really great personalities.

Tirico just went out of his way to go through the laundry list of excuses why both fanbases didn't travel well.

I missed that. What were the reasons that fans in WV and SC could not make the trip to Florida? And could any of those reasons be applied to fans traveling from, say, CT to Arizona?
