I listened to Jack Flemming and Woody O'Hara call this game at my firehouse. It wasn't nationally televised, but I was cheering from Saint Albans. I was a freshman at WV State in '82. Geez...what great Mountaineer Memories!!
Jimmy Polio , Hey Jimmy I don’t think they ,the viewing parties, were to common. After that game the crowd came out f the civic center and plugged the streets celebrating..A great day to be a Mountaineer...
Yes he did I met him a couple times when he played for the Raiders he’s a very cool person and though I’m a Cowboys fan I always rooted for him even when he was a giant god love him

A great game. This game was broadcast to the Charleston, West Virginia Civic Center. I was there the crowd went crazy.
I was there. Fantastic game. So stinking hot. Their fans were great, they purchased our flying WV hats.
This was when we beat Oklahoma
This was a great win for WVU.It set the tone how their program was going to play in the 1980’s.WVU took a big step with this game.
One of the most memorable moments of my life!

Nehlen's teams usually started the season better than they finished the season.
Didn't Hostetler marry Don Nehlen's daughter?
