    Martinsburg (WV) 31 Sherado 28 final

    Martinsburg rallies to score 10 points in the final six minutes; FG with :27.7 left was the game-winner. Big crowd, terrific game.

    Thursday Night Football Scores (in progress)

    Centreville 40, West Potomac 22 -- Centreville trailed 14-0 at half, squandering two trips inside the five. But after half, they nabbed three interceptions, one that was run back for a score and two others that set up TDs.

    WVU gains 592 yards on VPI; I doubt anybody else does that this year.

    Oh it was a game they should have won....they were a little more disciplined and had an edge on special teams than WVU and that got them over.

    WVU belongs in the SEC

    you need to look at map, MichiganHerd. WV borders, VA, KY, MD, PA, Ohio. But I agree in that the SEC would have much more attractive options in OK, TX, Clemson, Florida State, Miami (Fla.) and even former member Georgia Tech should it want to complete expansion. I'm sure they're fine with what...

    Penn State fan here

    I will not ever again watch a Penn State game, not even the Rose Bowl. It's blood money. They deserved the death penalty and somehow avoided it. And then to have defenders of JoPa up there running events like the "50th anniversary of his first win" ceremony is just sickening. I know we're...

    WVU football as independent

    KU going to the Big 10 for basketball will never happen. Decisions are made based on football as we saw time and again where the ACC was concerned. If TX and OU bolt, it will be for football that KU will be judged. They'd move to AAC. People are failing to recognize what just happened here...

    WVU football as independent

    It's not silly at all. Look at the city of Houston, which Texas A&M has turned into an SEC market. It's the largest market around. For the Big 12 not to take Houston and compete there against A&M says all you need to know about how strong OU and TX's ties really are to "running the Big XII." I'm...

    WVU football as independent

    Right...you go ahead and keep dreaming that dream that OU and TX aren't leaving...they were THIS CLOSE to leaving for the SEC just a few years ago.. The money's still right..all that's needed is a place at the table big enough to accommodate Texas, which as we all know likes to run things.

    WVU football as independent

    I can envision Iowa State and Kansas going to the AAC, but not the others. As an independent I'd be down with playing Baylor, Oklahoma State, Kansas State, ND, BYU, Army and UMass. Plus there are games out of conference already set..I believe Michigan State is among those...we should dump Penn...

    WVU football as independent

    Nope. Because the Big XII's going to collapse at some point if it does not expand and that's not in the very distant future. All it will take is for some SEC or Pac 12 bigwig to agree to some terms for Texas; they and OU will follow them right in. They will be a matched set. And if you think the...

    Gut feeling: WVU/VT end up in SEC within 5 years

    We're never joining the ACC; the powers that be there have resisted us for decades and will never have us. Even if Fla State and Clemson join the SEC (ahead of TX and say, OU); the ACC for marketing reasons is much more likely to take a UConn and perhaps a disgruntled Rutgers or Maryland than...
