READ IT ONE MORE TIME FOLKS!
People, people, people. Coming from West Virginia I readily admit we have some backwoods brethren, but their our brethren nonetheless and proud Mountaineers. Now, I've heard some classless banter before, but at least it was from folks who knew our program and had well-established rivalries, but you simply reply on unintelligent conjecture and . To try to start a rivalry with us with demeaning stereotypes of our people and state is small-minded and lacks the creativity you would find in a 6th grader. Let me provide some actually and factually fodder . . . .
WVU Record – Winning
With a 706–458–45 record, West Virginia has the 14th most victories amongst NCAA FBS programs - ever.
K-State Record - Losing
Historically, the team has an all-time losing record, at 475–613–41.
So that puts you right around 92nd place. So I am starting to understand your barbs stem from a massive inferiority complex. But why stop the comparison there?
Let’s compare our towns.
I believe several of you may have called our town a redneck, backwoods crap hole. So let’s look at the recent recognition and awards each of our towns have received over the past few years – shall we?

Awards for Manhattan, KS
2011 "Best Small Communities for a Business and Career.
2007 “Ten best places in America to retire young.”
Best place to retire young . . . sounds like a great time is had by all in Manhattan. I want to go to school in a place named the best place to retire young! I bet your sophomores are already starting to look like soccer moms. And since our town is a crap hole and has basically 5 times the awards Manhattan, does that mean your town is 5 times the crap hole you describe Morgantown to be?
Curious. . . .
And have no doubt - The Mountaineer Nation will be ready.
I bet your sophomores!!
475–613–41 (A FANBASE IS SERIOUSLY PROUD OF THIS RECORD?)
SURE LOOKS LIKE A JOKE OF A TEAM TO ME
You seem to be talking a lot of trash. Did you know that WVU has never been to a BCS bowl. LOL, pathetic, I know.
NOT ONLY HAVE WE BEEN TO A BCS BOWL GAME, BUT WE'VE WON 3 BCS BOWL GAMES IN THE LAST 6 YEARS!
I AM NOW DONE ARGUING, KSU FANS ARE JUST NOT UP TO CALIBER ON THE INSULTS OR FACTS. AFTER MY FIRST POSTS I REALIZED I WAS DEALING WITH IDIOTS, BUT NOT QUITE OF THIS MAGNITUDE.
Truthfully, thank all you KSU fans for making my afternoon quite enjoyable. Nothing like laughing at the expense of the enemy.
LET'S GOOOOOOOO MOUNTAINEERS!
