In the second half of Sunday’s game against Virginia Tech, Dana Holgorsen got his money’s worth when berating an official. Actually, he was berating a handful of officials. Holgorsen lit into anybody wearing a striped shirt when West Virginia was flagged for a a late-hit out-of-bounds on a Virginia Tech kick return.
It was a football play as any football play comes. James Clark, the Virginia Tech kick returner, tip-toed down the sideline for a nice gain. Clark braced for impact on a hit from a West Virginia special teams player. He knew the hit was coming, he wasn’t blindsided by it.
