There have been a rash of articles in recent weeks declaring how good WVU will be this season. Their OL/O in general kept us busy last year.
Their D mostly kept us in check. And I believe Phil Steele thinks they will be a team to watch.
Considering opening games - especially on the road - can be fraught with surprise, I expect this to be a tough one, where a few chinks in our armor will be identified, and exploited. So it will be incumbent upon our coaching staff to show an ability to adjust/adapt/ respond to unexpected challenges, such as trailing in the 2nd half.
But this will also be the chance several players are looking for , to step up, stand out, and make a difference. It could well be a window into the future of the season. Getting your nose shoved into the mud on opening day can get your attention.
