It comes to pass for West Virginia

Posted Dec 24, 2008
If Bill Stewart were a betting man, he would wager that the defensive philosophy West Virginia sees from North Carolina Saturday won't be anything new. It may not be a full-scale sellout to stop the run, but at least cheating toward putting an extra defender or two closer to the line of scrimmage is standard operating procedure for Mountaineer opponents. Which means West Virginia will have to try to throw the football when the they face North Carolina in Saturday's Meineke Car Care Bowl. (Charleston Gazette)
