It's the time of year where you may lose your focus a bit. Game day is approaching like Tavon on an end around. This one hits a little bit different because it's...Them. It's not a rivalry, necessarily, because we have not earned that moniker, but this series has some history...
- Don Nehlen & Joe Pa
- A Curt Warner kickoff return - The Pineville turncoat.
- Ollie Luck to Rich Hollins takes the lead in Happy Valley over #1 PSU! (before giving up 30 unanswered...)
- Todd Blackledge vs. Jeff Hostetler
- Undefeated #4 WVU falling in Happy Valley in '83, 41-23....
- Pat Randolph off the right side to wake up the echoes!!
- Rich Rodriguez with the pick!
- 17-14 AND FINALLY.
- DJ Dozier
- White clad ghosts...where Angels fear to tread...we will meet the invaders, we will do battle...as prohibitive underdogs
- A John Talley end zone flex.
- 21-10...and illegal man downfield...and a crushing defeat in '87. But, Major would not forget...
- The Play.
- Option Freeze - Major to Reggie to the House
- A pass to Calvin Phillips which traveled 70-yards in the air to over his shoulder with a PSU defender draped on him for perhaps the single greatest throw by a WVU QB ever.
- Renaldo Turnbull sack, Theron Ellis blocked FG, Darrell Whitmore pick.
- Run out the cl....UNDRA TO THE HOUSE!
- 41-8. 41-8. 41-8.
- Eugene Napoleon puts them to sleep.
- 1989...Major's 5 TOs.
- Blair Thomas, David Jakob and a game we never ever should've lost (Again)
- Adrian Murrell 154 yards & a TD in '92
- Jake Kelchner to Ed Hill in '92 to take a 7-0 lead!
- Jay Kearney from Jake Kelchner from 74 yards out in '92 to retake the lead!
- Rodney Woodard and the fumble. A pick-6 seals it.
- 2023 - a Series renewed. Aubrey Burks misplays a ball, and we're down.
- CJ Donaldson plunge to tie it at 7.
- 4th and 1, and Nicco on a reverse? -11.
- PSU DBs setting picks.
- The Ring Around the Rosey for 2!
- James Franklin covers the Spread.
The focus right now? We get to run one more back with these guys. All of these years, all of the heartbreak and suffering, and we get one more shot - at home, with a pretty damn good WVU football team. The focus is on the White Hats and Black Shoes.
