Review of “Bama Profiles in Courage: Laykin”: (Capers) Barr flexes through an emotional range that most writers would never dare attempt … Humor and Bama sorrow are fused together like twined tree trunks that keep each other standing…..It’s part satire, part character study, with a wry lens on fame, fandom, and the modern South. Well done, Capers, well done.”– Ian Allen, The Times Literary Supplement.

If Lee Corso was a tool he would be a toilet brush because he has cleaned up the mess known as West Virginia. He is like the best tool ever!

Lee Corso sent the Mountaineer nation a crystal clear message: The Big East doesn’t have ‘what’ the SEC has….and that ‘what’ is Tradition. What did Lee Corso do? He performed what is known in Morgantown as a “stumpbreaking”. He just stumpbroke Slaton and White’s Heisman(eer) chances. Corso basically said “I’m the man, let me Repeat, I am the man. Got my own cheerleaders, Nike clothes, TV show. I am the man.” Try again next year WVU with Noel Devine….that is if Devine isn’t working at Taco Bell.

Isn’t anyone curious why the Florida schools passed on Devine? You have to have some serious issues (like a criminal record?) if Herban Meyer will take a pass on you.

Bucking his corporate masters, the crazy old bastard did not mention WVU’s Slaton or White in a broadcast discussion of Heisman candidates. While it’s just hype and doesn’t mean a damn thing, common sense says White and or Slaton do not both deserve serious consideration. Even Pitt fans would agree with that.

After being dealt a humiliating media setback at the hands of the bumbling Corso, West Virginia fans are in a complete meltdown. Maybe the old bastard is onto something? maybe just maybe, the old goat knows that deep down that Big East Football is on the same level as an all-girl SWAT Team.

Maybe Corso might is still be pissed about not getting the WVU job three decades ago. While part of that makes me laugh the majority of me considers this as obvious bias into smart sports journalism.

Memo to self: I will re- learn to watch GameDay on Saturday mornings again. Sure it’s all fluff and is used to boost ESPN ratings and promote their own agendas. Rarely is there hard thought analysis and usually no matter who picks the games between Corso and Herbstreit, they pick opposite of each other. Corso has to act like the old dud who tries to use his coaching “experience” as knowledge of today’s game, while Herbstreit comes off as the young gun with recent experience and know how. And now I will appreciate them even more….They have not been blinded by a conference that has a much depth as a frying pan.

    It took BC, Miami and VATech leaving the Big Least for WVU to be handed the “best team in the worst conference” moniker. Had they all stayed, you all would still be a 4th place team at best.

    Has WVU ever won anything? I know they do seem to go to the Gator Bowl a lot to play teams from the 2nd worst conference – the ACC.

    You can’t be serious. “Florida should count their blessing that they did not run into a BE team in Tempe.”

    Statements like that one is what makes you an easy target. Which Big East team? The Louisville team who “lit up” the Orange Bowl in tune to a 24-13 win over fuckin’ WAKE FOREST?!? Or the WVU team who barely squeaked by lowly Georgia Tech? GEORGIA TECH?!?!?!? You are insane!

    Again, since your team has never won shit on the field and because you play in the weakest conference and because it took the Top 3 Big East Teams leaving for the ACC to make your WVU team a “contender”, you have to rely on half-ass shit talk in the offseason.

    Talk shit all you want. Nothing you can say will change the fact that:

    – WVU plays in the weakest conference.
    – That it took Miami, VATech, and BC leaving the Big Least for WVU to go from 4th to 1st (because you obviously couldn’t do it on the field.)
    – That WVU plays their “tough” road games in quiet, 40,000 seat stadiums that don’t even sell out.
    – One of your biggest rivals is a team from the MAC (?), Marshall.
    – That WVU is not a “fast” team built on “speed”, but more so that their competition is a bunch of slooooooow teams (i.e. Cincinnatti, UConn [<—they play football?], Syracuse, USF, Pitt, etc.)

    West Virginia has defeated the SEC champion and the ACC runner-up in bowl games the past two seasons, but the Mountaineers have their eyes set on a bigger prize – the national championship. The Mountaineers face Louisville in Morgantown this year, but they will have to face Big East upstarts Rutgers and South Florida on the road. If West Virginia can make it though the Big East undefeated, it could find itself playing for the national championship.

    Pat White and Steve Slaton are enough to strike fear in the heart of any defense. Adding Noel Devine to the mix? Yikes. The Mounties finished last season tied for the nation’s #3 scoring offense along with Louisville, co-best of any BCS-conference team. So why only #7? They were 48th in ppg allowed. West Virginia gave up 44 points in a loss to Louisville and 39 points in a close win over Rutgers – yes, Rutgers scored 39 against them. While the schedule says Louisville is the only team with a good chance of beating them, if the defense does not make drastic improvements they could fall to USF once again or to Rutgers – both road games in 2007, and two run-oriented teams that might have big days against the 3-3-5 stack scheme.
    Keys to Victory:
    * Win the turnover battle. West Virginia is the type of team to score on nearly every possession while at the same time getting shredded on defense. Having more possessions is crucial to their success or failure. Four times last season, WVU was on the wrong side of the turnover battle – Syracuse (-2, win), Louisville (-2, loss), USF (-2, loss), and Rutgers (-1, 3OT win).
    * Break 250 yards rushing. Three times last season, the Mounties were held under 250 yards rushing – actually, under 200 each time. A win over East Carolina where they scored just 27 points, a loss to USF where they scored just 19 points, and a win over Rutgers that went to three overtimes. Offense cannot be blamed for their loss to Louisville, as they gained 540 yards and scored 34 points.
