I think it really depends on how quickly our offensive line gels and how our running backs have developed. If our running game is dominating it will minimize first game jitters for whatever QB starts, and therefore mistakes like picks. Clock will run quickly.... put me down for a 35-3 type game. Most of our scoring will come late in the game from trying lots of different looks for our rb's and experimenting if we clearly establish dominance on the lines.

Looks like WVU only returns 1 starter on the DL, and we bring back 3 on the OL.

I'm guessing this will end up being the week 1 line:

Robinson-Arie-Kelly-Dom-Shep

That's an averaged height of 6'5.6" and an average weight of 314.8lbs.

Using this: LINK

WVU's DL will be:

DE: Dontrill Hyman (6'4" 265)
NG: Kyle Rose* (6'4" 298)
DE: Christian Brown (6'3" 290)

* = Rose is the returning starter, but didn't play Nose last year.

Average of 6'3.6" and 284.3 pounds.

We should be able to run on them, but it will definitely depend on how well the OL meshes.


Plus their OL is inexperienced. I think our DL could show their stuff early if Saban lets them loose.
