6. How about winning the game that West Virginia is retiring Major Harris's Football Number?

Major couldn't beat Oklahoma State either.

Nice 31 - 32 effort in the Sun Bowl, in Major’s 1st Bowl Game vs
Thurmond Thomas, Barry Sanders, Hart Lee Dykes, & Gundy,
I believe.

In the Snow.

You must admit,
the Sun Bowl was a much better Effort.


Not sure you're exact correlation (or points),
but it's always great to talk Major.

It was 33-35 and WVU BLEW 24-14 3RD QUARTER LEAD.

There was no way WVU was beating the best team in Big 12 just because Major number was being retired.

Hum, I kinda think you may have missed the overall Point, respectfully.

I'll try again - emphasizing that if
West Virginia (as a program)
was NOT inspired enough - Motivation by Major Number retirement, wasn't motivation enough.

If West Virginia had beaten
UMd or Oklahoma (yes WVU should have beaten Md and Oklahoma),
WVU wouldn't be scratching for another bowl appearance.

Laying a Egg vs Oklahoma State, concerning.

You're over thinking the entire process. You do know none of those players where born when Major last played. The coaching staff was 8 maybe 9 years old. Oh and the other team wants to win.

Ok

3 - 28 or whatever - not much inspiration.
