The Mountaineers are BCS Bound!

The 12th-ranked West Virginia Mountaineers(9-1, 6-0) defeated Pittsburgh, 45-13 on Thursday night to clinch at least a share of the Big East title. On Saturday, the Mountaineers claimed it outright after Connecticut upset South Florida, 15-10 at Rentschler Field in East Hartford, Conn.

The most likely bowl destination for West Virginia will either be the Sugar Bowl to be played in Atlanta this year or the Orange Bowl in Miami. Official BCS bowl-game bids will be extended on Sunday, Dec. 4. Most of the sports pundits pick WVU to play LSU in the Sugar Bowl.

It should be noted that West Virginia has either won or shared each of the last three Big East championships.

Lets Go Mountaineers!
