MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — For a program with a whole system based largely on offensive production, a lopsided spring game in favor of the defense may not be the best harbinger for the upcoming season.
But West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen said he isn’t worried about the inconsistencies on offense that led to a 42-10 win for his defense Saturday at Milan Puskar Stadium — using a scoring system that rewarded defensive plays as well as traditional offensive scores. In fact, Holgorsen said the defensive success was to be expected.
“If it wasn’t like that right now, we’d be in trouble,” he said.
