West Virginia

Country roads. No easing up on the pedal this fall at West Virginia, where big things are once again expected of the Mountaineers. We thank Joe for the poster. Let's see what reviewer Mike has to say:

"Bill Stewart takes over for Rich Rodriguez. He was the interim coach when West Virginia blasted Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl. Apparently that was the best job interview he could have had as Stewart was given the job the next day.

"I am not saying that Stewart isn't the right guy for the job, but I would have thought that West Virginia would have talked to a few more people before hiring a guy who in is only previous head coaching job at VMI went 8-25. But it was fun to watch him laugh and smile along the sidelines during the Fiesta Bowl.

"As for the poster, if you have any question as to who the marquee player is for West Virginia, it's Heisman candidate Pat White, who blots out other players. In fact, I had to look at this poster a couple of times before I realized that the smaller images were actually other Mountaineers.

"I think the poster would be better if White’s image were not so dominant or they used a full length shot to create a more balanced look. It just feels too top heavy."

I'm surprised EA Sports hasn't sued them for lifting the design from their College Football game boxes
