So LSU fans got a taste of their own medicine...another reason why they would fit in.

Doesn't WVU have "backyard brawls" with Pitt?

West Virginia is the only State in the Union with less people now than before World War II. Why would we want anything to do with them? Mizzou at least provides us money and let's some of the academically challenged schools like LSU, Bama, Ole Miss, State and Arkansas have something reasonable to strive for.

Morgantown is in the Pittsburgh media market. WVU should be in the ACC. Natural rivalries with Pitt and VT and they'd resume games with old Big East foes Syracuse, Miami and BC.

This. The hot Southern belle types in NC go to either NC State or ECU.

a Tim Hortons parking lot in Morgantown.
any place that has a canadian coffee shop disqualifies the school from being considered SEC territory. Morgantown WV apparently has 6 of them - and NO Waffle Houses.

don't confuse country for Southern. there is a difference.

Been there twice for a Gamecock vs. NC State game. Once in 1999, where it was Lou Holtz's first game as Gamecock coach. That game was during a hurricane and I've never been so drenched. The second time was in 2009. I was amazed at the renovations around and inside the stadium. We won 7-3. Got lit before and after the game with some friends from undergrad who were from Cary and their NC State buddies. Had a blast.

Sorry Missouri, Kentucky, and West Virginia, if you didn’t secede you aren’t southern.

WVU is a Yankee school, like Pitt, Syracuse, and BC. They should be in ACC.

Nah. It was way worse than piss balloons, unfortunately. In 2011, after LSU beat WV 47-21 in Morgantown, three men and a pregnant woman, LSU fans, were pulled out of their car and beaten by an angry mob. The husband of the pregnant woman suffered a broken nose, a fractured eye socket, and a fractured frontal bone in his forehead. Pardon my French, but frick those hillbillies. I know its a low bar, but every fanbase in the SEC is light years better than WVUs.

How many stars are there on the Stars and Bars, son? I'll wait while you go count.

And which state do you think is represented by the star that's in the very center of the flag?

Actually WVU should’ve been in the ACC.

Horrible fit in big 12, both culturally and geographically.

Not enough eyeballs to make the SEC a viable destination

Not enough teeth to make the ACC a viable destination


I give West Virginia mad props for the Battle of Blair Mountain but things have gone downhill since. A big segment of blame can be placed on the east for owning the mineral rights and exporting the natural wealth to their enhance their residences in NY and PA.

They decided they were too different from the Southeast 150 years ago. Why should they get to join now? At least Missouri had some who wanted to be with us then.
