Owen Schmitt's Fiesta Bowl Postgame Interview

[wvufanngarner]

Holy Schmitt!!!! he hits hard. Love this guy. i drove 6 hrs just to have him sign a jersey. If WVU never wins a championship we will always be there, early, loud and stay late wearing gold! Go 'Eers

[NIGRO50]

Awesome, I was at this game here in AZ it was awesome they put an ass whip on OU hahahhahha

[kkinkead]

I remember watching this. I actually started to tear up. First time in my adult life.

[BlAhHaDaBoY123]

wow......he have a big heart for the team! No matter what it take!

[thepokerman23]

i have a little brother that wants to be jus like owen (as far as playin like him) but if he grew up to be half the man owen is.. id be honored...

ima Seattle fan also hard to believe cause im born n raised in WV.. but i am.. n i cant wait to see was comes of owen later in life.. hes got nothing but the best ahead of him! =]

[jayeric1]

ESPN would still pick us to lose if we played them again with the same teams.that's how stupid ESPN is.

[wbinwv]

The Seahawks got a warrior in this guy. I hope he makes tyhe Seattle fans proud. He certainly made all WVU fans proud.

[funkyflights]

Man we welcome you in Seattle bro ... we need your heart after our hearts got stolen in the 40th bowl ... bring it baby...

[agoetz44]

You made us proud here in Mo-town now go and shock'em in Seattle. Good luck Owen, I know you'll do well!

[subtlesquire]

I'm a Seahawk fan. I have a feeling getting Owen is going to be one of those rare franchise defining moments. What a heart this guy has. I'm thrilled to get him on my team. I say the legend of Owen continues.

[wvseven]

Thanks Fairfax, Virginia for a great man an player, his parents have to be the proudest ever. Run them over on Sundays, Owen.

[hankwvu]

So when can we start voting to have his number retired? He didn't break any records, but he is a player that ALL players should model after. He even choked up the TV people... (you have to hear the one guy say "wow" right after the interview was over.

[wvuguyispissed]

cant wait till he goes pro, he could be the best FB in pro football someday

[smithfire14]

"The Legend of Owen Schmitt"

exactly right, 100% accuracy on that quote

[wormunit]

One of the greatest moments in Mountaineer history!!

[dave2378]

I love the Mountaineers!!!! Screw RR

[chekje]

the timing of her question and the beginning of country roads is just absolutely *perfect*.

EVERY DAY IS A GREAT DAY TO BE A MOUNTAINEER.

[wbinwv]

One of the most respected football players that's ever worn a Mountaineer uniform. We will miss him in WV. God bless you Owen.

[ForeignerPhan]

My alltime favorite Mountaineer...big Owen Schmitt!

There's a reason why this guy is a living legend in WV. We're gonna miss him dearly.

Good Luck in the NFL,Owen.

[shnaaarf]

BAYBEE RUTH!!!

[lalalaurakinsx3]

This video gives me goosebumps and makes me tear up a little every time

[ruffles40]

i know

[smithfire14]

If you are a true WVU fan, raised in the heart of the Mountain State....there is no way you can hold back. That emotion that he put on display in front of the entire nation is in all of us. The funny thing is, he's not native and he still has blue and gold running in his veins.

[KOCKMUNCHIES]

owen schmitt is THE MAN!

[levisnteeshirt]

dang , no wonder they played their hearts out. They had to answer to him if they didn't ,,lol

[egawaldo]

love this guy...he would play another year if you gave him the chance.  hope for the best in the draft...

[levisnteeshirt]

Gonna be some big shoes to fill for next year ,wonder who will step up and take the reins of this marvelous player

[swimerboy101]

owen is a beast, and i still can't believe that he wasn't even playing in a div.1 college team before he transfered. he will definitely be a great fullback in the nfl

[blindenigma13]

I can't watch this without tearing up every time. He had a great year. True WVU fans know that he did more this year than hit his head with his helmet. If you go back and watch plays with him making great block after great block, you will understand why some of the other players were able to get such big runs. I was so happy that he got to get a T.D. in the bowl. I really think that is what got us going in this game. Hope to see Schmitt in the NFL. Good job.

[xfactor0001]

Owen is the best lead blocker in the nation. I love his intensity. A real old school football player

[jyu134]

[solomonyanky]

do you think there will be many newborn boys in the state of west virginia this year named owen? Owen Patrick whatever or Patrick Owen whatever

[moxie2020]

Owen we all love you man. You got heart! Don't ever change.

[bettinazzi]

Renews my faith in college football. Owen is all guts.

[marcolian]

"Owen is all guts."

Truer words have never been spoken.
