A conference team win will be more important. We win the BE and were BCS bound. We win the BE and beat you... well, you figure that out. There is no question that LSU will be the most difficult game we play. No doubt...
Geno Smith is the best QB Holgerson has had. That's what he said anyway. So I believe what he said. Why would he set such high expectations? Also he said our offense has picked up his scheme faster than any other.
And lastly....
Gundy had no relationship with Dana. He gave the offense to him and Dana had full control over it. Dana is unusual in that he doesn't buddy up. He's like a mad scientist or something. I don't know, it's weird but he is successful. He left Leach because Leach wanted to throw it every down. Dana runs it more than most give him credit for. Just look at his numbers at Ok State.
WVU fan is excited. I'm cautious because of the weird set up with Stewart being around. However, there is no doubt our offense is hard to defend. I saw that this spring. I'm not sure how you defend it because of the mis matches it creates. And you better be deep on the backside of your defense, which you all apparently are.
It will be a battle. This I know....
And defensively I'm not worried. Jeff Castell is a great coach and we are loaded with talent. Bruce Irvin is an All American and Keith Tandy isn't far behind. Yes we graduated some, however we played a two deep last year and were ranked in the top 5. And, no offense but your offense doesn't scare anyone. Particularly with your new OC who we beat like a drum before.

Well, over the night and through this early morning I can see some rational folks go involved.
I agree, the transition between Stewart and our new guy is going to be interesting. To say the least. However, I also know Dana has had great success every single place he's been and we are more talented than those stops.
I asked about your secondary because in order to beat this offense you better be deep at corner, and have athletic LB's and safeties that can cover like corners. From the article I posted no doubt your loaded at starter at cornerback. But it's going to take 4 corners and safties that can cover plus LB's that cover like safeties.
Look, you all are vastly more talented than us. No argument there. However, if you think this game is going to be a cake walk or blow out or whatever your in for a serious shock. Our guys are not intimidated by you or the SEC. We generally beat SEC teams and we've done so at away venues.
LSU coming to Morgantown is a big time state wide event. A packed house and a confident team and national TV with the winner positioning themselves for a big prize. Particularly in our case because your the toughest and biggest game on our schedule out of conference.

Here is your reality..
You were a punt return away from a great player, perhaps the best player in the country last year from losing to us lowly Big East folks at your place, at night in Death Valley.
This year your coming to the Mountains and your going to face what we hope is the nation's best offense led by the one of the top QB's in the country and by seasons end one of the nation's most explosive players Tavon Austin.
Keep thinking your running us out. lol go ahead... keep talking. lol your in for a shock. And this my good friends is a fact.

Per ESPN Pre-season rankings
14. West Virginia Mountaineers (Previous ranking: NR)
On the field, West Virginia's transition to coach-in-waiting Dana Holgorsen's spread offense seemed to be pretty seamless during the spring. Quarterback Geno Smith threw for 388 yards with four touchdowns in Friday night's spring game (albeit against the No. 2 defense), and Tavon Austin and Stedman Bailey looked like big-play weapons. Whether WVU's progress carries over into the 2011 season might depend on what happens behind closed doors. Can Holgorsen coexist with Mountaineers coach Bill Stewart, who wasn't exactly ready to retire after the 2011 season? WVU must still find a No. 1 tailback and replace seven starters on defense. The Mountaineers are going to score a ton of points on offense with Holgorsen at the controls, which will probably be enough to send Stewart out with a Big East title.

The demographic of this site or some of you fans must be 5-12.
We got a flashy new OC who will throw it on every down and return all of our true receivers. Be prepared for us to throw for 400 against you. And that's not smack talk, just the reality.
Nothing about our offense this year is close to our offense last year. All new coaches and all new scheme. You learn.

You'll need five to cover us. At least... so it sounds like you got them.
Can't wait for the game. It's going to be a big one..... for both of us.

So I just read this https://bit.ly/imYayX and knowing what our (WVU) offense is now about, how deep do you guys go on the backside of your defense?
Obviously this is a southern site so they stroke you all, and I have no doubt your incredibly talented. How deep? And what do your freshmen look like coming in?

As I watch the news and see what is all going on down there it's heart breaking.
I just hope everyone stays safe. Homes can be rebuilt and communities can survive. But life is so fragile.... Just be safe everyone.
Anyway.... yes looking forward to kicking that Tiger tail in Mo-Town!

Troll? Really?
Saw it and wondered where the star from LSU was that is going to come to Morgantown and beat WVU. I didn't see one.
Good investigative work.

I think your QB play will determine it and i think both Mettenberger and the other guy who played against us last year play. Like Florid did with Tebow and there other guy.
Just my two cents. Personally against us I'd rather see the other guy verses Mettenberger.

In talking to some friends today we were talking our favorite topic, of course I'm talking about WVU football and LSU came up.
All of us checked out the Alabama spring game and came away impressed. The Tide is loaded.
Unlike my buddies, I took you nuts to win the SEC.
Take off your homer hat and will I be right?

Major recruiting advantage having all these former guys in town for their game.
How many current NFL guys does LSU have?

You all are preseason Top 5 of course it's going to be nuts. And with Mettenberger being from Georgia it's going to be all over down there too. The ESPN Radio station is in Georgia.
Your team will either embrace it, or it will ruin your team and year. One or the other.
