WVU held an intra-squad scrimmage in the brutal Saturday heat. Tony Gibson’s inexperienced defense got the better of Dana Holgorsen’s veteran offensive unit.
With temperatures near 100 degrees and a heat index well above 105, Tony Gibson’s defense dominated an experienced offensive unit yesterday. During an intra-squad scrimmage, quarterback Skyler Howard threw interceptions, running back Justin Crawford fumbled and generally the offense could not get out of its own way.
The defense, which will be trying to replace 9 starters, only allowed two touchdowns. One was a short run by backup William Crest. The other was a long run by freshman reserve Cody Saunders.
