According to announcer Matt Vasgersian, Owen Schmitt resembled a “beer truck.” Thats a first, lol. Check it out.
Oklahoma's DeMarcus Granger is Not Content With His Bowl Game Gifts, Gets Busted For Shoplifting
FanIQ.com 12/31/2007 — Oklahoma Sooners defensive tackle DeMarcus Granger will not be playing in the Fiesta Bowl against the West Virginia Mountaineers this week, after being sent home following his arrest for shoplifting at Arizona Mills Mall in Tempe, Arizona.
Granger apparently decided that his bowl gift package of a Vizio 20-inch, LCD HDTV, Tourneau watch, Oakley sunglasses and hat was not enough, so he ...

Fiesta Bowl and Sugar Bowl Previews: It's Winning Time
sportsyenta.blogspot.com 1/2/2008 — Well, I'm 11-16 with five bowl games left. These remaining games will determine whether I'm over .500 or not this season. No pressure. On to the picks for the next two BCS games. Tostitos Fiesta Bowl (Glendale, AZ) (9) West Virginia (10-2) at (4) Oklahoma (11-2) (-7) One obvious bowl-betting rule comes into play here: always go against the team that has an interim coach.

West Virginia removes "Interim" from Stewart's title
sports.aol.com 1/3/2008 — January 3 --- by Charles Rich for FANHOUSE: The only interim head coach to win a bowl game is also the only one to get a head coaching job.

MVN's Football University: Rant of the day, Big East football is not big at all
mvn.com 1/5/2008 — What a great win for West Virginia in the Fiesta Bowl, giving the fans of the Big East something else to cheer about, maybe. Why do I say maybe? Because believe it or not, the win against Oklahoma in the BCS Bowl game is further proof that the Big East isn’t the “big time” conference that the media wants you to think it is.

Then, I made the mistake of checking out the Knicks during a commercial. And how can anyone who has ever been a fan of the New York Knicks not be compelled to say something after another mind-boggling awful performance...at home...against the putrid Sacramento Kings...sans three...
I Hate Myself For Loving WVU
nunesmagician.blogspot.com 1/3/2008 — If Joan Jett were a Syracuse fan in 2008 watching the Fiesta Bowl last night when she wrote her classic tune, perhaps it would have turned out a little differently.
(To be honest, I don't see Joan as a Cuse fan anyway. She seems like more of a UNLV fan to me for some reason. Maybe it's all the smoking. Plus, I think she might have been a cutter, and we've got enough problems as it is)

I’m certain my tens of readers have wondered where I’ve been, as I've thus far failed to write on West Virginia’s glorious Fiesta Bowl victory over Oklahoma last Wednesday. The answer is, I was at the game, in what turned out to be the best travel decision of my life—and then took a couple of days to cruise up to Sedona, which aside from being magnificent, is supposed ...

Vasgersian Not The First To Refer To Schmitt As A Beer Truck —
AwfulAnnouncing
This upsets me greatly as I thought Matt Vas was the inventor of the Owen Schmitt beer reference, but alas...that is not the case. Apparently Washington Post writer Mike Wise referred to the WVU Fullback as a "Beer Truck" before as well.... It's not like his reputation isn't out there. Schmitt has the rare ability to hold onto the ball -- or deliver punishing blocks -- in heavy traffic. "He ...

The Postmen // A Sports Blog // Chicago, IL.
Because the Hoosiers were playing in the depressing cavern that is Carver Hawkeye Arena last night, I wasn’t able to catch much of West Virginia’s uber-pwnage of Oklahoma. Though that didn’t stop Matt Vasgersian from reflexively blowing my mind.
“Runaway beer truck?” Pass the spliff to the left, Matty. Isiah’s starting to come down over here.

No Fiesta for FOX. —
Sports Media Watch
Jack McCoy had a much better night than Oklahoma and West Virginia.
The season premiere of Law & Order, along with Deal or No Deal and Supernanny, helped put a dent into the ratings of the Fiesta Bowl on FOX. So did the play of the Oklahoma Sooners, who were blown out by West Virginia.
The Fiesta Bowl averaged 11.5 million viewers in prime time, according to preliminary numbers, down 16% from

Pregame festivities at the Fiesta Bowl -- Photo by Al GLENDALE, Arizona -- I'm spending part of the holidays in Arizona, and as last year, decided to take in the Fiesta Bowl. I have a feeling the Oklahoma Sooners boosters are going to ask me not to go next year, if their school winds up invited back. For the second straight year, the Sooners went in as favorites, and for the second ...
Fox's Matt Vasgersian Identifies Owen Schmitt As A 'Runaway Beer Truck' —
FanIQ Blog
This call serves as the lone highlight thus far for the joke that is Fox's BCS announcing coverage. Beastly West Virginia fullback Owen Schmitt bounced free which led play-by-play man Matt Vasgersian to identify him as a "runaway beer truck" en route to a 57-yard touchdown scamper rumble.
I'd say this was the crowning moment of Owen Schmitt's career -- I mean, who ...

Bleacher Report
West Virginia saved its best effort of the season for the Fiesta Bowl—and Oklahoma responded with its worst performance of the year. The result was a complete mismatch from the opening kickoff. West Virginia rushed for 349 yards, the most rushing yards ever allowed by Oklahoma in a bowl game. For the record, that's 349 yards without starting tailback Steve Slaton, who left in the ...

The Sooners walked into the buzz saw which was the WVU 'Eers last night. Despite their coach leaving them only a short time ago WVU brought the hammer of pain to Oklahoma in last night's Fiesta bowl. WVU looked great. Oklahoma looked like they might fight back as they narrowed it to 15-20 at one point but then the Mountaineers slammed the door shut with some big plays. Great game. Fun to ...
WVU's Speed Dominates OU's Strength —
East Coast Bias
This year's Fiesta Bowl showed that West Virginia and the spread is fully legit. For anyone who was in doubt, thinking WVU didn't deserve to be #2 in the soft Big East, the Mountaineers cleared things up a little bit. Four straight drives for TD's, 3 of them on drives of 3 plays or less. Sam Bradford constantly under pressure, OU with 11 rushing yards in the first half. OU was in line for the ...

Sunday Morning Quarterback
There's a good chance Oklahoma would be a substantial favorite in tonight's Fiesta Bowl if Rich Rodriguez and his genius spread brain were still on duty for Mountaineers, if only because of the slight but lingering stigma of `Big East' and the wildly disparate results the last time we saw either team, on the night of Dec. 1, when Oklahoma beat the shine off a spread-based Missouri offense ...

EDSBS
The Fiesta Bowl could be great pain perdu , the reclaimed scraps of stale seasons revived in a bowl game for both Oklahoma and West Virginia, but we doubt it, especially for West Virginia, who comes in with an interim coach, an offense that’s been less than jet tempo awesome this year, and an Oklahoma team that probably does not want to lose their fourth BCS bowl game in a row.
