MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — No player on West Virginia’s football team, and perhaps no coach either, watches as much game video as Skyler Howard.
So to the surprise of no one this week, the quarterback pored over the last two meetings against Kansas State. What might have been surprising, however, was what he noticed about himself.
Remember in 2014, Howard was heralded after a second-half, pinch-hit appearance brought on by Clint Trickett’s career-ending concussion. He entered with West Virginia trailing 20-3, threw two touchdowns that rallied the offense within a 26-20 final, and essentially proved himself to coach Dana Holgorsen.
