West Virginia’s defense faces first real test against Texas Tech | WV MetroNews
West Virginia’s defense faces its first true test on Saturday. The Mountaineers have been among the nation’s best during the first quarter of their schedule but West Virginia’s 3-3-5 defense wasn’t recruited and constructed with any of its first three opponents in mind. This unit was built to stop the Big 12’s wide-open offenses, and Texas Tech’s may be the most potent of them all.
