"I'M SO PROUD OF THIS FUCKING TEAM"

Tyler Palko uttered those infamous words just 3 years ago, but the echoes are louder today. What happened at Notre Dame stadium was awesome, but nothing matches the buildup for the Backyard Brawl. WVU was playing in the biggest game of their lives. A 4-7 Pitt team walked into THEIR HOUSE and beat them up and down the field. Dave Wannsteadt and all the coaches deserve a ton of credit for pumping that team up to play. They had them believe all week. I could sit here and gush about all the players, but I'm going to limit it to 2. LeSean McCoy is officially the savior. I've never seen a kid earn more yards than McCoy did last night. He fought for everyone of his 148 yards(had 20 more if no phantom holding calls). The next player is Scott McKillop. I remember him 2 years ago as a RS Freshman playing at WVU and getting ran all over the field. He grew up in the Panthers backyard, he FUCKING hates WVU and showed it. He should be a finalist for the Butkis next year, he is that good. He flew all over that field. This game will never be forgotten by either school. How many days 'til spring ball???????
