As hard as it is to say, I agree. Teams like Okie St and Oregon don't have enough of a power run game to threaten LSU and Bama so they'll play the sidelines all day long against those types of running/passing attacks. BSU seems to have a decent enough power running game to keep LSU and Bama honest. It's why Auburn was so effective last year as against these two teams. Our experienced offensive line in conjunction with the threat of Cam or Dyer running up the middle forced Bama and LSU to respect the power running game and allowed Auburn to put their ballcarriers in one-on-one situations on the perimeter to try to break a tackle and get big chunks of yards.

Watch WVU become K-State East... I say this as a compliment. 2003 was the last time we beat K-State in football... We're 0-3 since and they're gonna shove our shit in again this year.

In basketball, we're 4-5 against K-State over that same period.

I, for one, welcome our new hillbilly overlords.

That would be awesome. We need everyone else to run from the BE, now, so we don't have to wait 27 months to leave. Which I think everyone will be scrambling like hell, we are the face of the BE in football. Without us, they're all screwed.

We're comin for your wimmenz!
