You know, if WV wouldn't have scheduled PSU (in addition to Pitt), and would have done a buy game, they would have had 10 wins.

It's amazing to think that two of Iowa State's coaches in the prime sports of the past 20 years have basically never coached meaningful years after leaving. Wayne Morgan went into selling satellite dishes and whatnot and Chizik hasn't been able to keep a job for more than 2 years.

It was tough for Chizik to keep focused at his new position when he was obviously so firmly entrenched in Ames. Really held him back from achieving the same success he had here.

But we’ll always have May 19th to remember him.

Even more of a reason why adding more teams is a bad idea. They didn't even have to play Kansas, Kansas State, Iowa State, or Texas.

They lost to the only 3 ranked teams they played all year. Total fraud that hid behind a Big 10 west level schedule.

JJ should have just said no comment... it was invented exactly for these scenarios.


What an idiot. Kinda like a dad and his boy are accused of robbing a bank and the son says his neighbor robbed a bank to fix up his house and we didn’t want our house to look out of place.

Not exactly sure.

What did we learn from the Eustacy and Chizik eras?


That’s it’s better to bang the co-Ed’s than party with them.

WVU was ranked 25th in CFN's final poll. I think that's about right. they're ahead of iowa, and I think WVU beats iowa, Iowa state, kansas, and kstate if they played them late. WVU won 5 of their last 6.

2 of their losses were @ PSU and @ OU. Not sure bama would be 2-0 in those 2 games. WVU got better as the year went on. their beat Pitt and Texas tech with their backup qb. that's prety good.

i dont think wvu is any better than 25th, but 9-4 wasnt a bad season. The only "bad' loss was houston on the road on a hail mary as time expired.

WVU will be better next year, but they open with Penn State and Pitt again, and play all of the best teams in the big 12. Oklahoma state, kstate, utah, arz, UCF, Iowa State, colo. and kansas.

way to early to predict win totals, but if wvu wins 8 next year, they'll have earned it.
