  • The Virginia Tech–West Virginia football rivalry was an American college football rivalry between the Virginia Tech Hokies football team of Virginia Tech and West Virginia Mountaineers football team of West Virginia University. The Black Diamond Trophy was the trophy that annually went to the winner of the game. It was introduced in 1997 and was meant to symbolize the Appalachian region’s rich coal heritage (the phrase "black diamond" is often used as a term for coal.) Virginia Tech held the trophy in 6 of the 9 years in which it was contested, but West Virginia University leads the series 28-22-1 over Virginia Tech. The last game was played on October 1, 2005, in Morgantown, West Virginia. Virginia Tech won 34–17. Since the 2006 season, neither school has the other listed on their schedule. The future of the Black Diamond Trophy is uncertain following both schools' move from the Big East.
