"Pac Man" Jones Can Lick My Power Pellets

You're still a bunch of inbred hicks.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) -- Rasheed Marshall has struggled throughout his career against Maryland. That didn't change Saturday -- until it mattered most.

Marshall threw a 7-yard touchdown pass to Chris Henry in overtime to lift West Virginia (No. 8 ESPN/USAToday; No. 7 AP) to a 19-16 victory over Maryland (No. 19 ESPN/USAToday; No. 21 AP).

West Virginia moved to 3-0 for the first time since 1996.

"People say we should not be a Top 10 team because the Big East is a weak conference," Marshall said. "Well, the Big East is not this team."

With John Denver's "Country Roads" playing over the stadium loudspeakers, the Mountaineer players stayed on the field for several minutes to celebrate their first win over Maryland in five tries.

Three things:

a) That last paragraph makes me sick.

b) Joel "Ohhhhhhh you had to be a beeeeg shot, did'n-cha?" Statham is the worst quaterback in recorded history. (There are guys in cave drawings with better lines than 9-20, 1TD and 3 interceptions. And they were playing against sabretooth tigers.)

c) MD beat the spread, meaning guest-columnist Dr. Doom is 1-0 in his Latverian Leadpipe Locks thus far.
