......is heartbreaking for me. Not only was this one of the most anticipated inter-conference games of the preseason, West Virginia was supposed to be so much better than they are. They're currently losing to an Auburn team that couldn't buy an offense before tonight. Really though, I feel sorry for Pat White and Noel Devine. White is one of the best playmakers in the country period, and one of the few guys I'd take over Tebow (Chase Daniel, Colt McCoy, and Sam Bradford are the other three) if I were choosing a quarterback. Why? Because Bill Stewart seems determined to turn White into a pocket passer. For God's sake, let the kid do his thing. He's probably the fastest guy on the field not named Devine, so let him move outside the pocket. Let him run until his legs are tired, because this passing deal isn't working. Throw in some screens and flare passes to the receivers, but otherwise, run, run, and run some more.
And give Devine more touches, dammit. The guy had all of 5 carries in the first half, but still managed to rack up 80 yards rushing. He's a playmaker. When he touches the ball, good things happen. He averages almost 7 yards a carry. Let the guy get involved in the offense.
And now, as I type this, he just ripped off another 13 yard gain. It's his SEVENTH carry of the game, and they're halfway through the third quarter.
