The answer is that playing WVU will not harm the image of KSU's football program. KSU and their football fans ultimately present the image of KSU's football program. Unfortunately, from what I have seen posted here the image is grim. What seemed like a question about football programs became a forum to denigrate the people of West Virginia. The references used here about people in WV are the same old anecdotes that have always been said about us. I have never been to Manhattan or any other city/town in Kansas, but I certainly would not judge the state or any city/town based on what I "think" I know about KS. In 1863 WV seceded from Virginia based on differences in beliefs about the treatment of fellow human beings by confederate states. The state separation line was the more rugged parts of the Appalachian mountains. The people of WV have worked extremely hard to make the state a home they could be proud of. Coal still fuels most of America's electrical power generator plants, if you have electricity then more than likely you have benefited from the results of a hard working WV coal miner. West Virginians have built interstate highways, dams, railroads, towns, bridges and more in some of the most rugged places in the country. This took intelligent innovative engineering, teamwork and good old fashioned sweat. The people of WV are different than a lot of people in the world, they care about other people enough to help other people. Who are "other people"? It is anyone but themselves, it could be a family member, a friend, a neighbor, or a stranger, yes even a KSU Football fan. If someone needs help the people of WV will be there to help. That's just the way we are.
As far as football goes, we love our Mountaineers, we support our Mountaineers. The WVU football program is strong. Say what you will, but remember the Mountaineers have taken care of business,  Georgia 2005, Oklahoma 2008, Clemson 2011 are all bowl games WV was supposed to lose to higher ranked teams from "better" conferences. KSU lost bowl games in 2006 and 2010 to Big East Conference Teams. I certainly recognize KSU's strong football history, but to say that KSU is to be spoken about like Notre Dame is just plain delusional arrogance on your part KSU fans. In closing let me point out the facts: KSU and WVU are not so different, see attached image.
Thank you for taking time to read this post.                         I am proud to be a West Virginian.                             LET'S GOOOOOOOOO MOUNTAINEERS!!!!

I am off to go hunting.  keep logging the threats of violence as well as insults so we can have a strong defense package to present to the NCAA.  I would add that the NCAA hates idiots who brag about exercising so flag those in a separate ENCRYPTED folder.

bye

123 pages and still going strong. People are coming out of the woodwork to snag themselves on your hooks.

Its a vicious circle, and some of these clowns keep perpetuating it.

also, what's the deal with their coach and that big goiter thing he has on the side of his face/neck or whatever. that thing is gross. anybody know what it is and if it's contagious?

I think it's scar tissue from a childhood incident involving a couch, some fire, and a broom.

One thing I never understood about coal miners, is coal dust not unlike lice? Wouldnt it be much easier to get that black lung inducing dust off your translucent, sun thirsty skin if you removed some facial hair, maybe trimed some of those ponytails and did other basic grooming practices?  :dunno:
