My rankings after tonight:

LSU = Alabama >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Everyone else.

Honestly, I don't think anyone in the country is even close to these two teams.

DEA like the SEC? LOL

[BigTyla]

My acronyms are lacking. What is DEA?

My acronyms are lacking. What is DEA?

To be fair, it was a typo on my part to boot. It should be "DAE". "Does Anybody Else"


It was sarcasm none the less. Both LSU and Bama pulled through on my picks for my pool.

Ah!

Well, no one outside the SEC likes the SEC. We're in your bowl games, taking our championships.

I'm disappointed at last nights outcome, but not surprised. Geno Smith played like a madman and his O line played awesome against a highly touted LSU Defense. I just wish the boy would run a little more often.

Our defense and our lack of running cost us the game. Pat Miller looked like he was day dreaming or something. Arm tackles don't work. If it hadn't been for the kick return it could have been a completely different game.

The o-line really matured and stepped up. Was very happy to see that.

Never cared for Pat Miller, every time he played for Hogan last year he got burnt hard.

Thanks for the ass whoopin, LSU...you scary!

Well, I was afraid of that.

Pittsburgh man, others attacked in traffic after weekend game in Morgantown*- News - Charleston Daily Mail - West Virginia News and Sports -

The LSU fan got a "crushed eye socket" and a fractured bone in his skull. The wife was pregnant and also got knocked around. The car didn't even have LSU stickers on it, the WVU fans attacked without any provocation at all assuming he wasn't one of them. Nobody stopped the beating until the wife screamed that she was pregnant - by that point the husband was unconscious and limp. It all started when WVU fans threw a rock through their window, hitting the wife, while the car was stuck in traffic.

HilbillyHomeboy and Stealthee, I know you guys are cool, and I'm sure a large majority of WVU fans are responsible fans of the game, but I sincerely think the reputation of your small but ever-present faction of hooligan fans is what kept you out of both the ACC and SEC.

In my entire lifetime of football fandom, the only time friends of mine were ever physically assaulted was in Morgantown (99 game, last second VT win). The dude was in his 50s and never said a word or gloated to anyone. A bunch of fans followed him into the parking lot and knocked over the port-o-potty he was using; he needed stitches to his scalp and I assume was covered in nasty. At the 2003 game a friend of a friend literally got sucker punched walking to the concession stand and another guy had a cup of urine thrown on him. I know several people who had their cars vandalized, and some were even WVU fans with VA plates who apparently were mistaken for VT supporters. Sh-t, someone slashed all four tires of our QB's car one year (1993), after a game WVU freaking won. We also can't forget the battery throwing at Bball games, most notably of course the Pitt game last year which was stopped three (?) times due to crap thrown on the court.

Certainly not all your fans are bad, most are cool, but you guys have a violent minority that ruins the atmosphere for everyone. I have honestly never seen its equal at any other venue the Hokies have played, nothing close from Auburn, UGA, Tennessee or Bama fans, nor from Miami, GT, BC or Clemson fans, and certainly not from Virginia fans, despite our mutual disdain for each other. (I have heard tOSU fans are just as bad, but never had any experience with them).

If you guys don't address this problem quick, I think you'll find it hard to schedule any major OOC games. It's a great shame too, because that was one of the most fun and unpredictable series we had.
