    Good game. Remember watching it with my pop. We were already stoked from B.C. beating N.D. as FSU fans. And Miami losing that evening was the cherry on top. R.I.P. pop.

    Yeah, I remember it well. My son was all Miami, he was way too cool to be a Mountaineer fan, Kept telling me that West Virginia didn't have a chance against the Mighty Hurricanes. I didn't say much at the end of the game, didn't have to, just the look on his face was enough. Great memories.

    This was my first game at Mountaineer Field. I was 17 years old and had enlisted in the Navy under the Delayed Entry Program. My mom asked me before the season started which game I wanted to go to as she wanted to take me to a game before I left for Military service and I picked this one. What a game! We were sitting on about the 35 yard line lower level around 10 rows up on the press box side. I’ll never forget the excitement and experience!

    The capacity crowd for Mountaineer Field is listed as 60,000. The record-breaking attendance for the 'Canes game was 70,222 fans. It's mind-boggling how 10,222 fans managed to get into the stadium for standing room only space. A classic game before an epic crowd!

    My family had season tickets for 1993, but only 4 (I think) per game; it was my first time seeing the Eers. I remember at the beginning of the season, my older brother (a sarcastic teenager at the time) was irate that I was going to the Eastern Michigan game, and he was 'stuck with' the Miami game ticket, and for weeks all I heard was 'It's okay, Joe can see them win, I don't have to see them win. I'll go to the Miami game'.
    It's been 30 years... I still give him hell about it.

    Wv not usually a powerhouse any year but we seem to be able to knock off anybody when given the opportunity. Teams need to be aware of the heart of a mountaineer.

    I was one of those 70k. The student section was too crowded, so a group of us went to the lower level and sat on the concrete steps. We were eventually escorted out of the stadium by state troopers, right before halftime. Good times!

    I sat in the end zone on the metal bleachers on the hospital side where the band now sits. We should have won by a couple of touchdowns because we wasted first two drives in the red zone with missed field goals.

    Miami allowed such a
    CLOWN play Quarterback
    for the Hurricanes.
    That #8 Collins was not even
    good enough to be on the team,
    much less be a Starting Quarterback.
