    So... a conf championship game?

    Is there a result on 1/2/16....

    The Pinstripe Bowl came to my mind, too. I believe the AD the Holgs is back - regardless - in 2016. But that bowl game against Syracuse.... we played like we had just woke up... gotten out of bed... and drove to the stadium having never practiced nor watched Syracuse game film.

    Expansion

    The only way to exapand.... and see Ok and UT "almost" every year.... is 10-game conference schedule. You'd play the other 5 in your division... and 5 of the 6 from the other division. You'd only give up getting to play Texas or OU once every 6 years. That said, it would less non-conf games to...

    Expansion

    I saw no reason to expand... but I honestly don't think other conferences are going to stand for the us to get by without a chance to add 1 more loss to one of our top conference teams. I am torn between "choose 2 best football schools" and "choose 2 schools that even out the map -- and maybe...

    WVU fans are divided by lucky number 7

    I guess I am saying... though the Big 12 is a big boy conference... to be able to win 8 game just once in 4 years (when most years we have 13 games)... shouldn't be too much to aim for, but even that has been unattainable, so far anyway.

    WVU fans are divided by lucky number 7

    I was thinking about this very thing today. It seems that some say, "we are never going to compete with the Oklahomas of the Big 12" and "expecting conference championships may be a bit much." I don't totally disagree with that. But those same people seem to extend the argument to "7-5 overall...

    Real expectations are 7-5

    Other than Kansas.... I see every game as winnable or losable. Honestly, I think we lose to Kansas State. After that, I would put it 50-50 we lose to Texas and Iowa State, so I say we lose 1 of those and win 1 of those. We beat the other, Texas Tech, and Kansas. I think we finish 6-6. If we...

    Crazy bowl scenario question; we get in with 5 wins

    [ There is no way a 5 win team should be in a bowl game. ] I totally agree about the 5 win bowl team. Personally, I don't think a 6-6 team should go to a bowl. However, there are 80 bowl spots for 130 teams now... which is ridiculous. I think a few years ago, Notre Dame turned down a bowl...

    Dodd: Big 12 - ACC get NCAA to change restrictions on conf champ game

    I think conference champions games (football) and conference tournaments (basketball) are for the fans... or ESPN and TV. What is the purpose of a game/tourney at the end? They just spent an entire season demonstrating who was the best in the conference. That is, unless you don't play...

    Dodd: Big 12 - ACC get NCAA to change restrictions on conf champ game

    The way it is now in the 2-division conferences, who goes to the championship game is still based on "conference record"... not "division record." So... for instance, maybe Ga Tech beats Va Tech.... but loses to Florida State and Louisville in a year where both of those are top 10 teams.... but...

    WVU's new ballpark, check it out...

    Although I like a traditional field, spring is wet in Morgantown. Since there is no dirt on the sliding areas, nor infield... does this mean rain delays would only be the length of time rain is falling... then players would immediately take the field when rain stops? (No spreading sand ...
