There was plenty of reason to celebrate Saturday after WVU’s win against a school that rarely makes appearances this far East. The throttling of BYU not only gives WVU a chance for a Bowl bid, but also, showed the depth of a running back room that can lead the charge to a few more wins before seasons end.

The popularity of college football, a treasured American pastime, has drastically changed recently. The landscape of collegiate athletics has changed as a result of the introduction of new Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) regulations. Student athletes can now profit from their personal brands rather than just competing for awards and scholarships.
First the first time in Morgantown since 2011, and the 106th total meeting all time, the Pitt Panthers would make their way into hostile territory. For WVU, the navigating around Pennsylvania based teams continued having lost to Penn St. in Happy Valley, and getting the win against Duquesne in Morgantown last week.
It’s Will Grier’s world, we’re just living in it. The fifth year senior will need to stay accurate and precise this season. Not only for himself individually, but for the team as well. In what was the first ever meeting between these two schools on Saturday a lot of questions were to be answered, mostly on the defensive side of the ball.
ou can have your Josh Rosen’s and Baker Mayfield’s. I’m taking WVU’s very own Will Grier. All the hype leading up to this guys home debut was surpassed. Anyone can pick apart a quarterback’s mechanics, decisions, ball velocity, etc. But, on this day he was flawless.
The score of the WVU VS. Kansas game was far worse than it may have appeared. WVU would wind up winning 48-21, but WVU would seal the deal early by establishing a dominant run game. Having 2 rushers over 100 yards a piece is no small task in the Big 12.
