opponents reactions to our beating them, not only beating them but, sometimes hammering them, has as much to do with perceived culture or an unfounded sense that we WVians are simply not as good as them.
Mostly, these reactions come from people who only see us as opponents infrequently.
Invariably after those beatings the nastiness starts.
And, for me, those comments only make the wins sweeter as those people survey the wreckage of their own team's hopes and dreams.
Yeah, we're thugs, ruffians, unwashed, unsophisticated, incestuous, dumb and all those other nastys that you seem to hold true but, pray tell, how come you were on the wrong side of the final score?
The reason we beat you, other than the usual filth?............I'm thinking we're just better most of the time.
