Give me 8 or 9 games against that list… we be back to relevance again…

Did he have a list of our opponents this year for comparison?

The only reason I would play some of them would be to even up the series.
But for BC (21-11-1) and VT (28-22-1), I see nothing to be gained (maybe $$ with the VT series).
We have the lead in the series and why mess with that?

'Cuse (27-33) - that series is within reach. But they seem to get up for us no matter how bad they are. Little to be gained by beating them other than taking the series lead.

PITT?? (40-61-3) Will not see that series evened up in my lifetime I doubt.
Even though they would likely be a sure win in their current state, but I 've thought that before (2007).

No… but, easy for me to look up…

Bama - 1
Towson - 217
MD - 46
OU - 9
KU - 103
TT - 69
OSU - 64
BU - 8
TCU -3
UT- 38
KSU- 12
ISU - 85

 

[bbwvfan]

4 top 10 teams according to Sagarin… 5 teams in top 12…

 

[bbwvfan]

Worse loss of the season to #38 ranked UT…

 

[bbwvfan]

I think the gist of Beechurst's thread was a satire… claiming WVU won the BE…

Hand them the Lambert Trophy!!

If those schools were on our schedule, we would not have to play div 2 teams for easy wins.

I am back from a great week at deer camp, me, my son, and all my buddies had a great time, I killed a doe and a nine point, so we have plenty of meat for a while. NOTHING beats deer camp. Anyway, the reason I want to play our rivals........ THEY ARE OUR RIVALS, pretty simple.

That 9 pointer will give you about a 6 month pass with no abuse.lol Good stuff. Congratulations!

It's the second week of deer camp and all the guys are here.
We drink play cards and shoot the bull, but never shoot no deer.
The only time we leave the camp is when we go for beer.
The second week of deer camp is the greatest time of year!

 

[Mac_Bridger]

Oh, and just for you dad... UConn lost yesterday to SMU. As I said before, SMU has been regarded as the worst team in college football history... I'll try to find that article later, but I have to get out the door for work. (Damned mandatory overtime!)

UConn was not a rival, and I would imagine that they are now wishing they had not gone up to div 1A in football. The games I miss are sPitt, VPI, 'Cuse, and UL had become a pretty good rivalriy as well. That is water under the bridge, but trying to force us to view IAST as a rival is PURE BS, WVU should handily beat them 95/100 times.

For the first time ever, I didn't get a picture of my buck, I cut my hand pretty bad gutting the buck in the dark Friday evening, and went to the ER for stitches, so my buddies finished gutting him and got him hung. The weather got too warm so we got him to the butcher first thing Saturday. Ill put a picture of his horns when I get them back from him!!!!
I saw on the CBS site that they are projecting us playing Arkansas in the Liberty bowl, yet another opponent home game for a bowl, hope it turns out just like the Sugar bowl played in GA a few years ago!!! If they are right, I may be able to swing getting there ( I got a buddy on the Memphis chamber of commerce who said he could get free tickets if I could go)

Howdy all you mutton ******ers. I hope you inbred sister-kissers didn't think ole King was dead. Gonna be a fun time with the Liberty Bowl lads. Hmmm...let me guess who you backwoods Einstein's are gonna pick to win....


P.S. Your ole buddy Sleepy is still alive too....I think he is having domestic issues with his boyfriend right now but I bet Slaton could get him to make a visit to chat with you snake worshipers too.

 

[kingbd1]

BTW, Spatval blows chunks...bet you lads don't miss him.
