Vast majority of my first memories of WVU football was Jack on radio. Listened to MANY games on radio before I ever saw my first game in person or on TV.

For me, Live, 1982 WVU v Richmond

tv.....I THINK also 1982 v OU on the first satellite dish I ever saw.
We took a break from trout fishin to watch the game on that huge dish at one of my dads friends house on the creek..
Also, just a little fun fact for those that dont know already concerning games on radio:
1st game ever broadcast via radio?

WVU v Pitt 1921

I dont remember.... 1980-something....We were one of the schools who was always on TV.....

My first game I remember going to was 1982 v New Mexico St (NU 68 NMSU 0)
I couldn't tell you TV honestly. I watched all of the bowl games but most Saturdays, I would blast the game on the radio on the back porch and play football while listening.

I honestly can't remember. But I do know the first non-Alabama game I watched was the Miami vs Boston College Doug Flutie hail mary game.

That hooked me on college football

93 FSU/Nd. I was there. I don’t remember the game besides Nd winning but I remember my cousins and me accidentally walking into Gameday. We were running around the upper deck of the gym. Opened a door and there they were.
