West Virginia faces tough test in improved TCU QB Trevone Boykin

West Virginia has a difficult task as they face TCU quarterback Trevone Boykin, writes Bill West of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

Mountaineers coach Dana Holgorsen heaped praise on the Horned Frogs' Heisman Trophy hopeful this week.

“I thought he was the best player in college football last year,” Holgorsen told West. “This year, he is not doing a whole lot different.”

As a matter of fact, Boykin has been even better statistically as a senior. Check out these numbers:

  • Total yards per game has jumped from 354.46 to 425.57.

  • Touchdowns responsible for per game has jumped from 3.
