MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- Pitt freshman tailback LeSean McCoy said earlier in the week that he didn't understand the hatred many of his teammates had for West Virginia and didn't appreciate just how deep the rivalry between the two schools was because he had never played against the Mountaineers.

But on the bus ride going to Mountaineer Field, the Panthers were besieged by an hostile mob of West Virginia fans who shouted and chanted at them, and threw rocks at the Pitt buses.

At that point McCoy stood up and gave his teammates a little speech and then went out and proceeded to stomp all over the Bowl Championship Series hopes of those same fans and their favorite team.

I hope you're just being sarcastic and not over-reacting. I may be in the minority on this one, but I actually like what WVU brings to the table. Our games against them have the potential to turn into a really, really nasty rivalry. I don't mind their fans' actions because its all par for the course in the game of college football. Fan's passions for their teams is what makes college football so much better than the pros.

I disagree with the "par for course" comment...Their [WVU's fans] actions were unacceptable.  However, should the football team be punished, no.  Should the university get sanctioned absolutely.

No on both accounts P D T ! Their is no place, no excuse, no reason why their fans need to do this kind of thing. The have had the reputation for acting like little children when it comes to opponents. Rocks, car vandalism, riots, are all the norm for these so called "passionate" fans. Are you condoneing we do the same here at USF? I think not. My opinion stays as stands. THEY need a lesson taught to them and a hard one at that. BS like this is NOT accepted, but it is at WVU. You sure don't see the President of the University stopping this stuff, do you.      Reaper

There is a difference between fan passion and throwing rocks at the team bus.

    “In my mind, I’m kind of like, ‘OK, excuses over'. We know what we need to do. We’ve got the right team together, and now we move forward, and we’ll evaluate and be accountable to each other, including myself, from this point forward.”

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
