Michael Hawkins Jr. Has a Chance to Embarrass One of College Football’s Most Expensive Defenses

MORGANTOWN, West Virginia — Texas Tech has spent an enormous amount of money putting together a football team capable of competing for a Big 12 championship and potentially making the College Football Playoff. The Red Raiders have invested heavily in their roster, particularly on defense, and the results have largely justified that investment. They’re nationally ranked, they’re winning football games, and they’re considered one of the most talented teams in the conference. But here’s something that should have Texas Tech fans a little nervous heading into Saturday night’s matchup with West Virginia: for all that talent and investment, the Red Raiders have still been vulnerable through the air, and they’re about to face one of the most explosive quarterbacks in college football.

Ross Hodge Has the Talent to Make the NCAA Tournament. Anything Less Would Be Disappointing.

MORGANTOWN, West Virginia — West Virginia basketball fans have heard enough about rebuilding, patience, and trusting the process. Those things certainly have their place, especially when a coach is trying to establish a program in the modern transfer portal era, but at some point the conversation has to turn toward actual expectations. Ross Hodge has assembled an intriguing roster, the Mountaineers have several talented offensive players, and the opening-night performance against Niagara demonstrated just how dangerous this team could become when everything is clicking. West Virginia isn’t necessarily a Big 12 championship favorite, and nobody should pretend that one blowout victory guarantees anything. But there’s enough talent in Morgantown to believe an NCAA Tournament appearance is a realistic goal, and anything less would be a disappointing outcome.

West Virginia Is One Win From Bowl Eligibility. The Next Four Games Could Define Rich Rodriguez’s Season

MORGANTOWN, West Virginia — A few weeks ago, the West Virginia Mountaineers appeared to be headed toward another disappointing football season under Rich Rodriguez. After starting the year 3-0, West Virginia dropped three consecutive Big 12 games, and the excitement surrounding the program quickly turned into frustration. The Mountaineers were struggling defensively, allowing opposing offenses to move the ball almost at will, and despite having one of the most explosive rushing attacks in the country, they simply couldn’t find ways to win conference games. However, consecutive victories over Cincinnati and TCU have completely changed the outlook for Rodriguez and his team, and suddenly, West Virginia finds itself sitting at 5-3 overall with an opportunity to become bowl eligible for the first time since his return to Morgantown.
