• The West Virginia Mountaineers represent The West
  Virginia University. The Mountaineers will switch
  conferences on July 1, 2012, moving from the Big

  Mountaineers the conference's easternmost team,
  and first in the Eastern Time Zone. The school's
  mascot is the Mountaineer.
• "Hail, West Virginia" is the Mountaineers fight
  song. "Take Me Home, Country Roads", a popular

Mountaineers Information

• With a 70145745 record, West Virginia is the
  14th most successful Football Bowl Subdivision
  (FBS) team of all-time, as well as the most
  successful FBS team to have never claimed nor won
  a National Championship. The Mountaineers have
  registered 79 winning seasons in their history,
  with 35 of those seasons resulting in eight
  victories or more, 17 seasons resulting in at
  least nine victories, and eight seasons with ten
  victories or more.
• The onset of the Dana Holgorsen era resulted in
  greater expectations for the program as the
  Mountaineers entered the 2011 season. The
  potential for a strong offense under Holgorsen
  leadership combined with West Virginia's
  selection as the odds-on favorite to win the Big
  East title provided a bright outlook for a return
  to a BCS bowl game for the first time since 2007.
