ESPN: One-sided Rivalries

[jocktalker]

Interesting blog on ESPN website. Interesting only in the fact that this may be how someone outside the state looks at the game.

yet he quotes Ollie Luck as he refers to eerfans. o.k.

The folks here in Morgantown honestly don't care about Marshall. Hell, half of the students at WVU don't even know where Marshall or Huntington are located. It really isn't much of a rivalry, and may never be.

got to win to make it a rival

I wouldn't expect the students up there to know where Huntington is. Now ask them if they know where Piscataway, NJ is or Harrisonburg, PA; yeah they could tell you. Most are from NJ or PA.

 

[WV_Celt]

The days of Morgantown being Little Jersey are fading. Now the out of state kids that go to WVU are leaning more toward Maryland, DC, and Florida.

I wouldn't expect any WVU students to be particularly strong at geography. Don't feel bad.

 

[WV_Celt]

Oh, I don't feel bad. I'm not a fan of WVU students, or their attitudes. Biggest reason why I started rooting for Marshall. That, and the '97 game in Morgantown.

 

[TheGreenhouseEffect]

When your quoting Ollie Luck who left WVU on probation with an idiot as a coach too boot as he skipped out the door to a better career opp, shouldn't you be interviewing him on why WVU is on probation for 2 years as you leave, instead of continuing his rhetoric?

Game should be played, great rivalry game, fun for the entire state. Yes, I live in Atlanta Ga, big ole city with big ole tall buildings, and graduated from Marshall. Ollie doesn't impress me, I know an opportunist when I see it. He played the state well and many EERbillys bought it. Sad.

List is useless if it doesnt have PSU and WVU on it.

all credibility lost when not citing wVu going from 1956 to 1983 (28 games) without a win against Penn State...
9-48-2

Doesn't change his point.

 

[WV_Celt]

Doesn't change his point.

Well, considering he said most are from Jersey or PA, I think it does.

 

[marshallsig]

Then you missed his point.

 

[WV_Celt]

He said most students are from Jersey or PA. What point am I missing, besides you being a miserable a$shole that wants to argue?

 

[marshallsig]

First I was not trying to argue. I was simply having a discussion.

His point, was of course, is that a lot of wvu students would not know where Huntington is, since a lot of them are from out of state. When you mentioned that they were from different states then he listed, it still did not change his point. Actually, you helped to support it more.

If I am not mistaken, just last week you were crying on old fairfield wanting to cancel your subscription, because of the way people were treating each other. Yet. here you are resorting to juvenile name calling.

I feel bad for you. You obviously cannot take causal talk or banter on an anonymous message board, without being offended or thinking someone is arguing. And it is sad that you lack the maturity or education to be able to respond without name calling.

Maybe you should find something else to do, where you are not so easily offended.

This list loses all credibility if they didnt mention Oklahoma/Oklahoma State...

That series might be the most lopsided one actively.

Oklahoma owns several lopsided rivalries that are still active:
Oklahoma State 83-19-7
Iowa State 72-5-2
Kansas State 72-19-4
Baylor 21-3

I might be mistaken but I believe that UK is 1-88 in their last 89 games against UF, UT, and 'Bama.

 

[WV_Celt]

marshallsig, you are mistaken. I don't post on Fairfield.

As for your whining about my name calling, and attacking my education level, feel free to continue trying to make yourself feel better by acting high and mighty on a message board. I stand by my statement that you're just trying to argue and that you're a miserable a$shole. Welcome to the ignore list.

Just last year, Maryland snapped a 29-game winless streak against Penn State. PSU leads that series 35-2-1.

MU fans can take pride in that Penn State record all they want.. but its Penn State's record. It must eat up the MU faithful to never notch a win. Even Davis & Elkins beat WVU.

Yep, MU faithful are so eaten up they are hanging themselves every day. You idiot, the folks that are eaten up are hilljacks like you who come trolling around here because they have absolutely NO hope for their failure of a football program. Your loss to Kansas is much tougher to swallow than our 0-12. It showed where you stand with the big boys. Go feel nehlen.

Sooo...is that something to brag about? Your supposed "unbeatable" team and "flagship, best team in the state"...lost to someone so obscure, it makes the Marshall/wvu rivalry look like the Iron Bowl in comparison?

Good lord you uneducated idiots who cheer for wvu only seem to do so to fill the void of not having gone to college...too bad you'd actually have had to, you know, attend college to understand that.

This board should seriously limit posters to having actually attended college...
