Although he had no involvement in the winning of the game, ERod's Mountaineers bounced back from a devastating December to start the New Year off right, crushing the HEAVILY favored Sooners of Oklahoma 48-28. The win gives them three consecutive Bowl game victories, the 2008 Fiesta Bowl, 2007 Gator Bowl (38-35 over Georgia Tech) and 2006 Sugar Bowl (38-35 over Georgia).
And now, once he returns for the Spring semester, it is time to prepare for the Spring Game in April where he will have a true chance to battle for playing time. It is undetermined who will be the new West Virginia head coach but an announcement is expected any day now.
Congrats to ALL of the West Virginia Mountaineers, the 11-2 FIESTA BOWL CHAMPIONS!
