MORGANTOWN, W.Va. - Now nine games into the season, we are discovering the true identity of this year’s West Virginia University football team – run and possess the ball, play good, sound special teams, create turnovers on defense, value field position and make on-field decisions with all of those things in mind.
If that means punting on fourth and two on your side of the 50, then punt the ball. If it means dialing back the number of blitzes and reducing the risks you are taking on defense, then dial back the blitzes and make the other guys drive the length of the field without screwing up to score points.
