Is color-coordination a Big 12 thing? Was this some kind of “we belong, honest!” initiative from West Virginia on the day of their first conference game as a B12 member? Whatever the motive, we approve of the blue/gold checkerboard* initiative in Morgantown:
West Virginia’s checkerboard looks so pretty this time of year
The Mountaineers have no defense and can gather large amounts of people based on the color of a T-shirt, thus officially qualifying them for Big 12 membership.
Pretty adorable how all the West Virginia fans with jaundice decided to sit in groups!

What’s unacceptable is the fact that clearly no one in the league office took the chance to haze WVU as newcomers by requesting zebra stripes (“Seriously y’all, it’s a thing. We’ve been making Iowa State do it for years”). In a stadium that encourages allows alcohol consumption, that would surely be a feat.
