A Hokie in the WVU Tailgate

    Leave a comment below or email me

On the way into the game my friend Patrick decided it would be a good idea to take a short cut through the WVU tailgate. As you can see in the video, I was the only Hokie around. I have to say that the WVU fans were really quite nice this year. As we walked through they were very excited to have me there and were offering words of encouragement. I did cut the video off before things got more heated. By the time I got through the tailgate section about 50 WVU fans were following me. Check out my gallery for some additional pics from the weekend.

View the WVU Fan response to the "Who needs a Benz when you've got a Beamer" t-shirt (Rod refers to WVU head coach Rich Rodriguez)

I arrived under the cover of darkness Friday night in Morgantown. Ok, it was 7:00PM and there was still light out. My friend Patrick (WVU graduate) and I stayed with my friends Tim & Kristin. We went down to "The Brewpub" (I can't remember the official name) for dinner. The wait was awful but we drank the microbrew and ate beer bread until our food was ready (about two hours later). If any of you Hokies find any reason to go back to Morgantown ever again (I can't think of one) you should definitely go to the Brew Pub and order their "Caribbean Jerk" chicken wings. They are SOOOO good. MUCH better than B-dubs. The beer was a little heavy in my tummy so after hitting one more bar downtown we went home. The next day I awoke to the smell of bacon & eggs.

After a nice breakfast we took the P.R.T. (Patrick calls it the PERT) to the game. I wore my Orange Effect shirt to the game but I had a dark blue VT t-shirt underneath for the return trip home. Once we got off the PRT people started yelling at me. Some guys followed us for about 3-4 minutes yelling stupid responses to "Who needs a Benz when you've got a Beamer" on my Orange Effect T-shirt. Eventually, as you know the Mountaineers are slow, they did come up with a good comeback... Take a look . The "Hot Rod" is in reference to their head coach Rich Rodriguez.

Lastly, here's a poster that was inserted into the Dominion Post newspaper. I took this off of one of the newspaper stands in Morgantown. Maybe I'm biased but this is pretty darn lame.

This was the last meeting of the Hokies & Mountaineers for quite some time. That's a shame really because we Hokies get a lot of satisfaction crushing WVU.

VTEch sucks, Garanteed you didnt say anything to anyone who said anything to you because you were scared, easty to hide behind an emaileh? btw hows your basketball team? turkey

Scott, you sure are a big man, I'm sure you would've had plenty to say if you had a pack of those animals tailing you like that. Go build a meth lab buddy.

And "hide behind an email"?? The site is the dude's name, and he posts pics and videos of himself. Maybe you're the one hiding behind e-mail, eh champ?

I have been to Tech and got treated much worse than this assbag and this game was no smashing it was decided by two stupid fumbles. If you say otherwise than you just dont know football, I didn't expect WVU to win but to give it away like that was disheartening. And Tech fans acting like it was a great accomplishment to beat an unranked team is sad.

Haha, thats pretty funny, I figure that "f***ing f*****t" would be the staple of WVU's vocabulary.

Oh and jcc, it's always fun to dominate WVU. But if you ever want to visit the black diamond trophy you're welcome to come down to blacksburg anytime ;-)

All ye boys from Virginia, whether it's West or not are poo nanny's. Count your titles then get back with me. Ye!

shoot, if this is the worst treatment anyone got, then WVU ought to get a medal for the best fan behavior in the entire country.
This video certainly pales in comparison to the video of the cheap shot Marcus Vick laid on an assistant coach by elbowing him in the BACK of the neck, like the perverted coward that he is.
So if the moral character of MV is the type you care to defend, guess that speaks volumes of your character doesn't it.


I remember travelling to Blacksburg as a cadet at VMI and having ballons filled with urine thrown at us from your 'classy' fans.

Also heard much worse name calling from VT fans while in the stands at this last WVU game.

And speaking of who holds what against whom, you VT fans best look at the ALL-TIME series record against WVU...hmmmm doesn't appear VT is in the lead to me....

funny stuff indeed.

all you WVU and Tech fans blow d*** anyways we all know UVA rules everyones asses

I think we should all just refer to Scott's post from yesterday. Note his careful crafting of sentence structure and command of spelling with such complex SAT words as "easy". I believe that says it all. Scott, did you type that with your one tooth or your sixth toe?

Hey Bird man,

You're right UVA does rule everyone's asses. Us Hokies will stick to ruling everyone on the football field.

this video is contrived and set-up.
Wonder what the perpetrator said just before 'rolling that film'?

This is as contrived as the PETA videos at the Moorefield Chicken facility from a year ago.

get a life.

Any attempted murders on VT's campus lately? Oh yeah, right after the VT/WVU game.

Let's see WVU students drag couches out in the streets and torch them, you guys just try and burn down frat houses and kill those inside.

LOSERS.

Good lord, Red.

It's not like the guys going live on CNN with a breaking new story. This is a freakin' web site. The guy's having fun.

Do a few people make situations bad for others? Yep, all the time. And what's it to you anyway? I mean, you already said you remember traveling to VT as a VMI cadet. When was that? 1984? What are you a middle-aged malcontent with nothing better to do?

I'd love to see the stuff you're writing on all those VMI threads out there. There must be tens of them.

haha dperks! That was funny. I just looked and I don't think I've see any VMI football fan forums.

But I did see an "Athletic Questionnaire"


You know this is a joke... if you just put your name on it I'm sure you'll get a scholarship.

Lol, I like the last part in your post. I believe it reads "we hokies get a lot of satisfaction crushing WVU". You better call up VT's AD and tell him to start sceduling WVU again, because VT has alot of crushing to do to even the series.

Nice creative shirt you wore to the game. I like it. What a catchy phrase "Who needs a Benz when you've got a Beamer". Its really creative to compared your coach to a car since he last name is beamer. I have to give you some credit that was a good find, and a fine choice to wear to the game. Next time you should wear the shirt that says "Who needs a good coach when you've got a player slapper".

Your video is so lame; half the people are laughing at you. Why don't you and you conVick of a quarterback go back to the cow pasture you call home?

I'm surprised they can yell all of those obscenities without their false teeth flying out.

Major Props!! I like how you represented at the West Virginia game, HOKIES KICK ASS!!

It's funny when the Tech fans think they're better than everyone else.

It's a long fall when you think your sitting on top of the world.

What really cracks me up is just like this video the article in the Roanoke Times you tech fans have never gone to a REAL football game. I am a Maryland fan(National Champs in Football 1952 & Basketball 2002 how many does Tech have?) but WVU are real fans!!! you girls cry and complain about the fact that "they yell and cuss at us" what a bunch on females!!!!! Try going to a Eagles game wearing Redkins gear! A letter was posted in the times thanking the tech fans for being so nice from a Ohio U fan??? so in closing you all are a bunch of Bandwqagon fans(why was there so many empty seats in lane before 1999??) oh and in Maryland we are use to cheering for real teams like the Raven and Redskins so you might not like that stadium either......I smell another Roanoke Times article about poorly treated Tech Hokie fans!!!

UVA rules everyone alright..cept Maryland. I got the highlights on tivo to prove it.

Listening to all of you makes me want to throw up. There are fans on both sides of the fence that act like complete idiots. For anyone from VA Tech to claim that they have classy fans is toooooo hilarious. I went to VA Tech and their crappy stadium when I was in the Pride of WV....a real marching band I might add. As we were marching into the stadium some of the more classy VA Tech fans chose to throw rubber chickens. Even more of them decided to spit at us and the fans who hadn't finished their beverages decided to throw the remaing liquid down upon our unsuspecting heads.....So, don't tell me that VA Tech has classy fans. In my book they have "some" of the most IGNORANT fans in the book. Oh, and one more reminder before someone calls West Virginia residents, graduates or students, Hillbillies.....the two states were once, ONE.....so what was once Virginia is now called West Virginia, but it is all one in the same. Cross the border and you really can't tell you have......so, shut up, realize every team has "some" louzy fans....and have fun falling on your face before you ever get to play for a national championship. (almost like you did in Morgantown in 2003...hehehehehe)

Poor baby... Were the big, bad mountaineer fans mean to you? Did they hurt your feelings?
I am sure that the "more heated" events after you cut the camera pale in comparison to jack*** moves of Hokie fans outside of Lane stadium. They were the paradigm of class yelling obsenities at my parents. I have to agree with Catch's comment-- Take your conVICK quarterback back to your cow pasture of a campus, and suggest that the locals keep a close eye on their teenage daughters.

Hey "The Nic"...i'll be at the Maryland/Virginia Tech game on the 20th to see Maryland get there ass's handed to them...

Having graduated from high school in WV, I can say 20 years later I'm so glad I don't live there anymore. 90% of the state is fat, ugly, and smokes. Other than ignorence, coal is the only thing there. BTW, I didn't go to VT, but it sure is a lot nicer place.
Roll TIDE!!!

To whoever posted these pictures, and videos...I am not sure what your point is. I go to Ohio State, and I can gauantee you would have been in much worse shape if you would have done the same thing at OSU. Virginis Tech is having ONE good year...let your team win with dignity. Stop making a fool of yourself and your team.

Say what you want! It took guts to do what this fella did! Maybe not the smartest thing to do, but he has the courage of a lion! GO HOKIES!!!

To whoever posted these pictures, and videos...I am not sure what your point is.

To the idiots named "Get Real", are you a moron or what? ONE GOOD YEAR? Maybe you should google before you post. And maybe you should allay with a program that doesn't have the amount of NCAA violations O ST has had...just ask Clarett... Lastly, suck on your sour grapes...

I MEAN COME ON MAN!!! GET REAL!! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?? I MEAN, AT THE VIRGINIA TECH GAME?? Even if you were a mountaineer and you were wearing red I wouldn't want to be anywhere near anyone wearing Blue And Gold.... uhh.. DUHH!!! lol! WVU all the way baby!!!

To WVU fans: Hope you like the Big East and hopefully Tech will never have to step foot in the state of WV again.

at least west virginia doesnt play a bunch of outlaws.

thats why tech won this year... who has the most dirty players.

tech sucks... youll lose in the sugar bowl again by 30 b****es.

One good year?? Hmmm, please check your media guide again, moron. WVU fans are notorious for being jerks...remember when the Miami player broke his leg and they blocked the ambulance while it was trying to leave and began ROCKING IT?!? Nice. I have met some friendly fans from the mountaineer st, but this rep was not something anyone dreamed up- it was hard earned through many couch fires and batteries thrown at players heads. I'm sure every school has there representative a$$holes, but the proof speaks for itself.

Ok,
I didn't mention anything about the Ohio State Football team...I was just stating what probably would have happened if the same thing would have happend there. As far as Virginia Tech goes, I understand they have had some good years in football...what I meant by good was good like the excellence of Texas and USC have denonstated for the past couple of seasons. I was just trying to say that if you think WVU fans are mean, then why would you go to there home field and try to provoke them.

"good like the excellence of Texas and USC"...once again, hmmmm, VT won the ACC last year with only one loss, to NC St..Guess who else they lost too? Oh yeah, USC and Auburn (in the Sugar)...gave USC all they could handle and might have beaten them if not for a bs pass int. call, not to take anything away from them, and played like garbage against Auburn (missed a 23 yard figgie) and still lost by two, again, not to tkae anything from their efforts. Hokies are one of the best over the last 15 years and WVU cannot say that.

Oh, poor baby, did the 50 people out of 60,000 get to you? And how many times were you physically assaulted? Face it, if you just walked through the WVU tailgate area and nobody said anything to you then your post and video would be entitled, "WVU doesn't care about their school or their team." If you can't stand to take some yelling then DON'T GO THROUGH THOUSANDS OF DEDICATED FANS WITH A DAMN VIDEO CAMERA! The title of this post should be, "The ignorance of Virginia Tech fans." I'm not gonna bash your team, student body, or anything else Hokie related, just you for being so damn stupid. WVU fans are some of the most dedicated in the country. Everyone rallies around the team and the school. I'm sure you wouldn't understand that though...

This is a truly pathetic display of ignorance and is very symbiotic of the prototypical Hokie fan. Grow up and try to show some class.

Yeah, i was at the USC/Tech game and that call was completly bs. We deff. should have won that game, and yeah, the hokies have moved up to the ACC, if WVU is lucky we'll never have to come back and humiliate them again.

and to WVU rules 1, AT LEAST WE CAN GET TO THE SUGAR BOWL!!

I hope that we get Va. Tech in the Rose bowl this year. We will humiliate VT and their fanbase. Try not to choke again losers!

WVU leads the VT series 28-22-2, and WVU did play in the 1994 Sugar Bowl. Hey Hokie fans, as of today WVU is up by 6 games on your team. Keep talking and hopefully one day we will meet up in a bowl game.

i dont know if u have checked, but we are in the major of the black diamond trophy, f**.

Hey WVU,

You mean before we played in the 1995 Sugar Bowl, the 1996 Orange Bowl, the 2000 Sugar Bowl and the 2005 Sugar Bowl, you guys played the 94 Sugar Bowl. Geez, how could we have forgotten that?

haha, very nice dperks.

Look at the all time series record. I do think that VT is good this year, but do not get too cocky.

All time series records are great. For historians. Let's look at some of our other series records: against Army 1-5, Duke 6-7, Kentucky 6-11-2, Navy 3-7, Princeton 0-3. You think any of those teams would point to their "series dominance" today to jusify getting doubled on the score board on their own home field. Doubtful. And in case you missed the subtlety, yes I did just compare WVU's dominance to the likes of Army, Duke, Kentucky, Navy and Princeton. Not in the classroom, of course.

And thanks for the words of wisdom about not getting cocky. Even without our rivals, the taste of late season collapses is still fresh in our mouths. We'll just enjoy this while it lasts.

Hey, this is a pretty slick site and I got some laughs out of your article.

I can't defend some of the moronic stuff that Mountaineer fans do/have done. I don't think that the metropolis of Blacksburg is immuned to this either.

I can, however, defend the WVU program. Chris Henry, who was the best player WVU had last year was suspended for flipping the bird. I also can't remember the last time WVU had anyone on their roster that had sex with 15 year olds and gave them booze - much less half the team (Imoh, Vick, etc.) I also can't remember any drugs, or anything else like that. I know why I can't remember. It didn't happen or the play was booted.

How 'bout that Beamer Ball!

VT/MD GAME WAS AWESOME!!! 7-0 BABY!!!

Yeah man, a little slow in the first half but we got the job done. Too bad MV threw three pics in the 3rd quarter. One wasn't his fault (darn Jeff King!)

before you stereotype me or the beautiful mountain state of WV or my alma mater WVU, I want to say 1st off that I'm from California and I was with a Church group who did a humanitarian mission when I was in school there in 2000 in Franklin County Va. Near Blacksburgh. 100 X's the hillbilly, redneck culture than any part of WV that I have been too and I've been all over the state.

Anytime you wear enemy gear on the road you're asking for trouble. I don't condone that stuff but it happens everywhere. Including Blacksburgh.

Last I checked Doesn't WVU OWN vt in the all time series? I'm not talking about recent times, I'm talking about all time record.

Not a flame but what kind of fu*ked up state has a ban on radar detectors? A little communism don't you all think?

It's really a shame that this rivalry had to come to an end, but it was getting way too violent and out of hand. The BE still has its BCS bid and maybe we'll meet on the field in a bowl game.

Mountain Man,

So does the pastor at the church you attend and take part in humanitarian missions with also talk about how fu*ked up Virginia is for its ban on radar detectors? Or does he/she just preach about the detestable rednecks in the Appalachian region?

Whether the BE still has a BCS bid or not means nothing if you don't win 9 games.

And as for all time series records, take a look at my comments from Oct 14. They're five postings above yours. In case you need a visual aid for that, it's 5 postings above yours. Count them on your fingers if you need to. But don't worry about whether you're using your left or right hand. That's a whole different conversation.

So is this the official board for Hokies to bash Mountaineers and vice versa?

And...

Aren't stereotypes formed because the majority of people exemplify said characteristics?

Let the West Virginia jokes commence!

The WV jokes are sometimes funny, but can't you just plug in Blacksburg or Southwest Virginia and be just as accurate?

Grant,

That was awesome!

(and that was sarcasm for all you 'Eers)

West Virginia Fans are all a bunch of douche bags. You guys seriously need to learn to get your d***s out of your a**es, or out of your sibling's a**es and enjoy the f***ing game. No use in getting all worked up if we're just going to keep beating the f*** out of you. I understand the rivalry is very tense, but in the end, it's just a game you f***ing losers.

Let me ask you a question Hokiefan, what is your profession in life? Judging from your pathetic post I would venture to say that you are not and/or will never be a successful contributor to society. Good luck with your life you pathetic excuse for a human being.

You people are f***ing retarted. The guy posts this video up as a joke and you fly in here calling him a sissy and saying he's unclassy. It's his own f***ing website, noone gives a sh*t what you think.

To all those people who are talking about all-time records between WVu and VT, congratulations. You hold onto that, meanwhile we'll worry about being in the ACC and competing for the national championship every year.

Have fun being in one of the worst conferences in college football, yet still struggling to win it. I kind of wish you guys would've come to the ACC too, I would've enjoyed seeing you at the bottom year after year.

Hey buddy you lost the ACC this year, and will continue to do so in years to come.

Hokie, Hokie, Hokie, high,
felons, r*pists, V-P-I
Kiss your BCS goodbye,
Hokie, Hokie, Hokie, high

dperks,

FYI: Sarcasm usually involves the use of wit. Even the great unwashed, Bible toting and denture wearing populace of SW VA would tell you that.

Grant,

I thought I had been hearing wheels (barely) turning and smelled smoke. Now I know it was you working up your brilliant response for the last twelve (12) days.

I can just see you sharpening one crayon after another to get it right on your oversized lined paper.

Witty enough for you? Or just over your head?

dperks, did you you add the "(12)" for all the VT people who don't realize that "twelve" means the same thing? Or was that just for your benefit?

P.S. We'll wave to you from our BCS Game...

Yeah, the 12 was for my benefit since I had already taken the time to spell it out.

Enjoy the ride on the short bus to the game. Of course, if it's like 99% of the other bowl games you guys have played in, I think we all know the outcome. It's just a matter of how badly you lose.

On the bright side, though, current predictions have you guys facing off against Miami. So there's your chance to prove just how "dominant" the big least is.

Have fun being the big fish in the little pond. See how much respect it gets you from the pollsters. We'll just enjoy the view from the top 10.

Thanks for showing me the bright side... Maybe we'll be able to finish what you guys couldn't against Miami.

I would have responded sooner, but I was just now able to pick myself up off the floor from laughter. Nonetheless, it will be fun to see all the WVU covered wagons limping into town on splintered wooden wheels for the game.

Of course, that's assuming you're able to get past the other juggernaut (look it up) in the Big Least: South Florida.

Hang on, I'm laughing again...

There we go.

Bottom line, if you jokers don't win the Big East EVERY year, you're even more pitiful than the rest of the country already thinks you are. Last year, Utah was insulted to play Pitt in a BCS bowl. And this year, if you guys win out, I'm sure Miami would be just as insulted to have worked so hard against quality teams all season to be "rewarded" with a game against WVU.

Hell, finishing third in the ACC and having the chance to play a quality SEC team in the Peach Bowl would be better.

The problem with WVU is that you think you're everybody's biggest rival and worst nightmare. Commentators and fans across the country will tell you the exact opposite, and you'd better get used to it as long as you're stuck in that sorry ass conference.

Anyone marching thru the WVU tailgates before the game, with video camera in hand is looking for trouble. Get a life Hokie loser.

Seems to me there is more to this video then meets the eye...whats not being shown by the camera...is he holding something in his hand, a sign ? there defintely is something missing in what we are seeing...regardless, my trip to Va tech in 92 resulted in me getting spit on, so its all the same more or less.

dperks,

I replied to your post as soon as I saw it. Matching wits with you is almost as difficult as tempting little girls with booze.

You have some points about the Big Least, but I believe that WV was threatened with legal action by none other than the Fighting Gobblers when the administration toyed with the idea of joining the ACC.

The fact is WV is competitive with VT and Miami in football and luckily for VT, they don't have to face the Mountaineers in B-ball.

I'm sure those nightly butt kickings in basketball will make the move to the ACC that more satisfying for you.

I've never tried to tempt little girls with booze, but I'll take your word for it that it's not easy.

Oh, and since you're now grasping at basketball straws, let's take a closer look. Normally, I would tell someone to think before they speak, but I know that's a tall order for you.

Last season, our first in the ACC, we split series with Clemson, Duke, GA Tech, Maryland, Miami, NC State and Viriginia. Dominant? I wouldn't say that. But I wouldn't call them nightly butt kickings, either.

On closer inspection, I discovered that we even beat you guys the last two times we played. And that was when we were REALLY bad. You know, before we were in the ACC getting our butts handed to us every night.

I actually find matching wits with you quite easy. Then again, I also find it easy to do a little research before I open my mouth and prove myself to be a jackass.

Stick with the knock-knock jokes, they're much more your speed.

dperk,

Boy, you got me there. WV WASN'T a good team and didn't come on till the end of the year. You are correct about a couple of 2 & 4 point victories by the Hokies.

Then there was the post season. Oh, that's right, VT didn't have one. Now there is the new season. Where is VT ranked?

You are the hypocritical jackass, me thinks. Feel free to have the last simple-minded word.

It's too easy, but oh well,

Me thinks I can't compete with the olde English. If that's what the school marms fancy to teach in ye olde school houses on yon mountain toppe, 'tis plain to see why your state be so rife with court jesters.

MESSAGE DELETED

(see comment below)

So now I have someone posing as me and throwing around gay jokes. I guess imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but good lord, at least make sure it's funny and relevant. The three word posting above is neither and didn't come from me.

Look, I do not require users to register to post comments because far less people would bother.

So let's set a few ground rules:
- keep it clean, I mean, fairly clean. I don't want to show up in search engines for some of the nasty stuff that's been written. Use a * or two so I don't get flagged as a porn site.
- DO NOT post as someone else. This is rude. I record all IP addresses of commenters so I can see what IP this message was from and what users have commented from this IP -- IE I know who you are. So don't fake.
- There should be a ratio of 2:1 comments in favor of the Hokies cause they are at least 2:1 better than every other team combined.

Ok, that last one was a stretch but you get my point.

Question: What seperates a hillibilly from and a**hole?

The Shenandoah River

So what happened to WVU Bball? Oh yeah, looks like they CHOKED! 'eeers suck!

U ALL NEED TO GROW UP......

George,

"So what happened to WVU Bball? Oh yeah, looks like they CHOKED!"

Not unlike the Chokie football team which is what "Beamerball" is all about.

Go Louisville!!

Sugar Bound,

Good thing UConn flexed a little muscle and robbed South Florida of their will against you guys. Would have been a shame for that to be a game that actually meant something.

Good luck against Georgia. If you need any help getting to Atlanta, just point your ox cart in the direction of the bright lights.

And when you get there, just remember, you're not looking for a crapped out mud pit that holds a nest of retards like the one you guys call a stadium. The Georgia Dome is a mystical place that lets people play football inside! Can you imagine! Inside! With electricity and one of West Virginia's most important food groups: cotton candy for alll the carnie folk in the fan base.

YA, LANE STADIUM IS JUST SO WONDERFUL.....BY THE WAY GOOD LUCK IN THE GATOR BOWL.

dperks, it's nice to see you've resorted to trashing on people who went to WVU and/or live in West Virginia because your football team couldn't step up and beat a team with FOUR LOSSES!!! I do believe the ACC (All Convict Conference) will be sending the weakest team to the BCS this year. Good thing Florida State has a legendary coach (where else did he coach??) or they'd be getting trashed like Pittsburgh did last year.
I take nothing away from the fact that you guys beat us on our home field. You did... But we've gotten better since that game (enter Steve Slaton and Pat White) and we deserve to be where we're at. You guys are now on your way to the Gator Bowl where you'd BETTER blow out Louisville (with their second-string quarterback) to keep talking trash on the Big East.
You've really got no argument here except to point fingers and say, "Oh Yeah, well, um, you guys are hillbillies!! HA!!" Great, and hooray for you for the quick wit you've displayed. That, combined with a ticket, might get you into the Gator Bowl. Have Fun!!

Anonymous,
It's nice to see that you have such a respect for the ol' double standard. Why don't you take a look at just about every single anti-Hokie posting on this thread and you'll notice that there aren't many that don't attack VT and the people who went there and live in the region. For that matter, I believe they were all posted because we did beat you guys. So jump down off your high horse.
By the way, it's easy to say whatever you want to when you don't the sack to identify yourself, Anonymous.
Should we have beaten Florida State? Yep. Is the fact that Bobby Bowden is a former WVU coach still really all that relevant? Not so much.
And speaking of wit, I applaud the modest effort of your very dim bulb with the "All Convict Conference." Very original.
Sure you guys deserve to be where you are, you won your conference. Just don't be surprised when you get down south and get a renewed taste of what real football is like. Just don't bother trying to pass the ball. In case you get tired scrolling down the rankings of team passing stats, you guys are 115th out of the 117 Division 1-A teams. That speaks volumes about the Big East Champions. And if a dumb ol' hick like me from the gosh darn hill country of Virginny can find that, odds are good Mark Richt knows it too.
Of course, that probably also means they'll be keeping a close eye out for the run. Have fun with that spectacle. If you ask me, even that four loss team that beat us has a better chance of making their BCS matchup a game than you guys do.

dperks, I'm not defending what other WVU people have written here, I can only tell you that none of that came from me. It could've been in response to the fact that we lost to you guys, but I bet this entire video wouldn't have even surfaced had we beat you in Morgantown.
I thank you for your applause of my "All Convict Conference" remark, it was in response to your "Big Least" comments (equally as original).
And nice research into our passing statistics. I could've saved you a lot of time though and told you we can't pass the ball, we haven't been able to do that for the past three years. It's simply the fact that teams know we're going to run the ball and still can't stop it that makes it so impressive. Could that all change against Georgia? Sure it can. Are we favored to win? Of course not. I'll be the first to tell you we don't get the respect we deserve and until we can prove it in a big Bowl Game then we won't get it. This is a big opportunity for West Virginia and the Big East to prove we belong in the BCS. Pittsburgh was a pitiful excuse for a BCS team last year, and we got beaten by Florida State in the Gator Bowl. Just the fact that we made it this far is enough for me, but I know it won't be enough for critics like you who will continue to belittle our program and state.
I'm sorry you feel you're a "dumb ol' hick from the gosh darn hill country of Virginny," but you didn't get that insult from me. If you want to feel sorry for yourself for being attacked on this thing then that's fine, go ahead. I don't feel guilty about having a double standard because I've probably shown you more respect here than anybody else. It's just funny to see how your posting has changed from football trash talk to getting personal. It seems that once the football arguments were of no use you resorted to other things because you had no argument.
And in response to your, "By the way, it's easy to say whatever you want to when you don't the sack to identify yourself, Anonymous." I'm sorry I "don't the sack" (I'm assuming a slight typo on your part here) to identify myself because it doesn't matter anyway. Anonymous means about the same as dperks.

Anonymous,
Sorry to hear you feel that you have no identity.

Look back through the other posts and you'll see that I too made the comment that we would enjoy our run while it lasted and all that good stuff. It was other WVU fans that turned the whole thing personal.

It's been my experience no matter where I've gone that rivalry chatter eventually degrades into "your momma" comments of some sort or another from both sides. Does that make it right? No. Is it just the nature of two opposing fans who both care very deeply about their respective teams? Yep. If you can't handle it, that's too bad.

The football trash talk is pretty much played out, as well. So maybe this thread will finally limp to a close.

dperks,
I completely agree with you on that. Things do turn personal and usually for all the wrong reasons. I respect your love of your school and your willingness to defend it.

DPERKS, THEN WHAT IS THIS?
"And when you get there, just remember, you're not looking for a crapped out mud pit that holds a nest of retards like the one you guys call a stadium."

You probably made the video
incase somthing DID HAPPEN......

GET-A-LIFE,

I've been to WVU twice. Both times I spent more time dodging pee, vomit, sludge puddles than I did walking from point a to point b. That's all I'm saying. As far as your comment about me probably making the video, that doesn't even make sense.

Let it go, man. It's over. You guys got a nice win in the Sugar Bowl. We got a nice win in the Gator Bowl that had the added bonus of helping us get rid of the trouble maker.

My best advice to you is to pay a little more attention to your own screen name.
