[QUOTE="VaultHunter, post: 129491114, member: 1391300"] But WVU vs Pitt is not some new rivalry like some people try to make WVU vs Marshall (not me) it is a game with a very long standing tradition. And I completely understand the games I listed are in state games but WVU vs Pitt is called the Backyard Brawl for a reason. This is a sad thing for WVU and Pitt fans. The game against Pitt gives us an intriguing OOC matchup, within driving distance if away for both, national TV appeal, and gives the Big12 and ACC to have a highlight game every year. I don't care if we play the first 4 weeks of the season just play this game. I have been going to Mountaineer games for 30 years and Pitt games are some of my favorite memories. I can't help but think that if a big enough push were made by the fans to the AD's they would see this game would be great for everyone involved. My biggest problem is nobody is even trying to make this happen. If they try and fail at least they tried and I guess I could live with that. But no effort is being made to play this game. [/QUOTE]
