West Virginia coach, Bill Stewart, is bringing a throw-down season in his first year with the Mountaineers. He said WV would throw more this season, and he wasn't kidding.
The Mountaineers are setting career-high passes and completions in the first game alone. Pat White, the senior quarterback, threw 5 touchdown passes and set personal marks for attempts and completions.
With only two losses last year based on the fact that the Mountaineers weren't getting room to run the ball, Stewart is bringing a helluva statement in this season by saying that's not going to work this time to Villanova's attempts at cutting off running like Pittsburgh did in 2007.
White finished the game with 25 for 33, giving him a better prospective look from the NFL.
With all said and done, West Virginia had a tougher first round than most of the ranked teams playing "scrimmages." While other teams were getting first game jitters out, West Virginia was doing some harder hitting and better passing. Look for the Mountaineers to throw a few upsets this season.
