and the Pac 12 is 1-7...Conference pride in Bowl games is goofy. No one cares enough to go to these games. Match ups are slotted. To much time off after season ends. To many players miss these games. Head to head in hoops and the NCAAs make Conference comparisons in hoops ok but in football way to much going on for a true comparisons.
I've never understood conference honking. I root for WVU. To hell with the rest of the BXII.
Maybe you should get rid of that red font..WVU a rarity.
Maybe Huggins should loan Dana his high-speed treadmills.
Since they piled on the Big 12 for its poor bowl record last season, I thought turnabout was fair play. But that's just the way my happy mind works.Conference pride in Bowl games is goofy.

I don't give a rats ass about the Big 12 bowl record or the league itself..It's better than being left out of the power five, but not much more. There couldn't have been more than 15,000 fans at that jacked up bowl game(don't give me some bullshit about the weather)..I've seen more people at a high school playoff game..WVU fans have always packed bowl games; we're known for that..not anymore. This game of football is supposed to be about the players, fans, and alumni...it's about money now..screw all of usSince they piled on the Big 12 for its poor bowl record last season, I thought turnabout was fair play.

WTF does anyone care? Wow, what a tragedy one poster brings a little color to the board.Maybe you should get rid of that red font..
Agreed, you want the conference as strong as possible. Stability and recognition will only improve recruiting and cash flow.Why would you not want the Big XII to do well in bowls?
Having the league be stronger than weaker is only going to help WVU in the long run.
You actually want WVU playing in the weakest P5 conference?

CFE....don’t let these punks intimidate you.
A good Big 12 is obviously a good thing for WVU.
So is an extended GOR agreement you moron. Get your head out of your......
An extended GOR and a true partnership is what will make things good for WVUs future. You’re so irrelevantly arrogant it’s comical.
K. ..as if I even made a comment about the GOR.
Your insight is so wonderfully moronic because it doesn’t even need other posters to point out the reasons why....
Extended GOR and not having Texas/Oklahoma holding Big12 hostage equals strong Big12. Nothing else makes Big12 stronger. You are one of the leaders of the moron pack here. So my point stands and you are truly a moron.
Gregory calling posters a moron is his version of adding tons of value to the board. Sad....all that.. ...and again, I didn’t comment one way or the other about GOR....

I consider Pollyanna a compliment. Yes, it's better for WVU to win than for Big 12 teams to win. But every Big 12 OOC victory means more when WVU beats that Big 12 team. It's so simple even a caveman can understand it.Leave it to Pollyanna Cuyahoga to miss the point of his own posting lol. Yes Big 12-2=10 is 5-2 with one to go. The two losses...Texas Tech by 4 and the WVU no show game in Dallas. The one blowout loss...WVU in the who cares game in Dallas. Now since that is fact...why in the world would a Mountaineer fan be happy that the rest of the conference did well (at least competitive) in bowl games and once again a DH led team looked embarrassingly unprepared and unmotivated? Really? I wouldn't care if the league was 2-5 and WVU had dominated someone in one of the major bowls. But this chest thumping over someone else's accomplishments...head scratching.
I don't think that's the argument some of the other posters are making. What you say is true, but I think other posters are reacting more to the chest-thumping of fans, especially those who had little to do with the results. For example, Rutgers fans are taunting Syracuse fans right now about the Big Ten being undefeated. Well, it's kind of silly for a couple of 4-8 teams to be bragging to one another about what other teams accomplished. From a financial perspective, it's a good thing. From a "bragging rights" perspective, it's dumb.
I never pulled for Pitt and I never will..that said, the most exciting game we had (IMO) the entire year was the opener against the Hokies..the place was simply electric. I guess my personal problem is that I didn't like Pitt or Va Tech at all; and there's no one in this conference that gives me an emotional attachment..but I am starting to dislike TCU.If you are not pulling for your conference to win bowl games and to do well in in Non Conference games - then you truly do not understand the value of a conference. And I blame that on the fact the WVU has never been in a conference long enough to have a true identity within a conference.
so how does he answer all the posts not in red detective Tejas?Maybe the mans can only see RED. That's why he types in RED. Get it? Warez

The big 12 went 4-2 last season.Since they piled on the Big 12 for its poor bowl record last season, I thought turnabout was fair play. But that's just the way my happy mind works.
It doesn't mean squat when you get blown out by a 6-6 team from a weak conference. Stop trying to ride someone elses accomplishmentsI consider Pollyanna a compliment.
