What We Learned From WVU Football's Week 1 Win Over Robert Morris

Related Topics: Robert Morris, Scotty Fox

Win number one is officially in the books for Rich Rodriguez to start off his second tenure as head coach of the West Virginia Mountaineers. After four first half fumbles, three of them lost to the opponent, it is highly unlikely that Rodriguez was a happy camper in the locker room at halftime. As heavy favorites, WVU took just a 10-3 lead into the half.

However, a much cleaner second-half allowed WVU football to cover the 38.5 point spread and win by a final score of 45-3. While you can only get so much knowledge of your favorite team from a buy game against an FCS opponent, let's take a look at some of the things we did end up learning from the Week 1 victory.
