Neal Brown and the Mountaineers may be facing a tough test in their season opener on Saturday. James Madison has three out of its last eight games against FBS teams, including an upset win over Virginia Tech in 2010. Now the Mountaineers’ undefeated streak against FCS opponents is on the line, as the Dukes come to Morgantown hoping to spoil Neal Brown’s debut as the WVU head coach.
Since arriving at WVU, Neal Brown has made significant efforts to show his players that they not only represent the University, but the entire state of West Virginia.
