In 2012, a 55-14 win by Kansas State in Morgantown, Heisman Trophy candidate Collin Klein picked apart the Mountaineers for 323 yards on a near-perfect 19 of 21 passing. Klein’s top target that day was Tyler Lockett, who caught nine passes for 194 yards.
“(Klein) doesn’t do anything wrong,” said West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen. “He doesn’t make any mistakes. He was the same guy we watched on film. He is exactly what we thought he’d be – he’s hard to tackle, he gets them into good plays, he doesn’t turn the ball over and you can say what you want about his throwing motion, but it goes exactly where he wants it to go.
