Three Guys Before The Game – Wes Ours Visits (Episode 378)

At somewhere between 285 and 300 pounds, Wes Ours steamrolled down the sideline to score the first touchdown in Don Nehlen’s last-ever football game.

It remains one of the most iconic plays in West Virginia football history.

The “Wes Express” keyed WVU to a Music City Bowl victory over Ole Miss.  More than two decades later, Wes Ours is still involved in the game he loves.

In this episode, Ours joins Brad Howe and Tony Caridi to discuss his career.  The self-described “military brat” lived in Germany, Hawaii, Texas and Colorado before settling in Maryland for his final years of high school.

It’s a walk down memory lane filled with fun stories and insight.

Join the “Guys” next week when they visit Clarksburg native and award-winning play-by-play announcer Mike Patrick.

Three Guys Before The Game is sponsored by Burdette Camping Center and Komax Business Systems.  Don’t forget to check out Three Guys merchandise.
