***West Virginia - Game Week Discussion Thread***

Clones will likely be #12 or higher here shortly. They’re going to get everyone’s best shot the rest of the year.

Looking forward to Rocco celebrating his Dad’s hall of fame induction and his team earning a road win to hit 6-0.
 
This game scares the absolute crap out of me. The major weakness of Heacock’s defense has proven to be mobile QBs, and that’s exactly what WV has. I don’t think WV is a better team, but a night game in Morgantown may be what tips the scales in their favor.

That said, if Iowa State puts a complete game together a win feels very likely

Imo ISU did a nice job last night on BU's QB after some settling in.

Btw is there a defense that's ever not had issues with mobile QBs in general?

That's always a problem.
 
I’m going to Morgantown solo. Anyone else going? I’m flying to Roanoke, renting a motorcycle and going to ride up and around the region a couple days. Any thoughts on meetup, key experiences or where I should get a ticket?
 
When is the first playoff ranking?
 
WVU secondary has given up a ton of big plays, we need to be aggressive early and often to Noel/Higgins/Brahmer. Breakout game opportunity for Rocco this season.

Defensively, it’s obviously all about the run. They are really good on the ground and if we slow that up and/or jump out to a lead and force them to throw, we’re in a good spot. Easier said than done, but Greene is not a very accurate passer and we could force a turnover or two there if they are forced to press offensively.
 
I wish it wasn't a night game. That will be an impressive homefield advantage for sure. Should be a good one!
 
Notable WVU stats at OSU:

Rushing 65-389-4
White 19-158-1
Greene (QB) 10-86-1
Donaldson 20-77-2
Marchiol (QB) 7-46

Time of Poss: 42:36

+2 turnovers

Honestly, for some reason, I’m less worried about this game than Baylor. WVU is not a great team, not near as good as they were last year. They will get some inflated hype because they beat up on a BAD OSU defense yesterday, but I see this being another close game till middle of the third quarter, and then ISU pulls away. All of that depends on what injuries the D has
