In the first game of the 2023 season, Neal Brown took over full play-calling duties, and the offense closely resembled the schemes we’ve employed over the past four years. While there were some changes, the sets, plays, and overall strategy remained largely the same.
Penn State boasts the best defense that the West Virginia Mountaineers will face this year, and it’s not even close. Penn State challenged us to throw the ball, and unfortunately, we couldn’t meet that challenge. On a positive note, the Mountaineers managed two 3-and-outs, indicating that the strategy of running the ball and controlling the clock can be effective, especially with the new clock rules.
