Lol at that homer article. WVU is not sniffing the national championship.

I don't know Chief.  If you buy into this author, then perhaps the WVU team will just turn pro as a group as a NFL  expansion for West Virginia!  Frankly I think we could be very competitive with them.

WVU was just picked to finish 7 out of 10 in the Big 12's football media preseason poll. Clearly a national championship is around the corner  ::)

The fact that W.V. opens with Missouri and we open up with Duquesne on a Thursday and have 8 days before the game will be huge for us

If the guins managed to beat the mountaineers, I would say that would be a pretty good start to the season, and a very awesome upset. Here's hoping  8)

You guys know how much I hate these blood games, but at least the position on the schedule is as favorable as possible.  Remember how awful we played against Robert Morris after our strong effort at Pittsburgh?  WVU could fall into that same trap.  We should all hope for their resounding victory over Missouri, so that they will be focused squarely upon BYU.  Worst case scenario for us is if they play poorly against Missouri.
