West Virginia Football: 3 bold predictions vs. Kansas State in Week 4
West Virginia football had an unexpected off-week but the Mountaineers will be geared up and ready to go against Kansas State in Week 4.
Is there an offense in college football that strikes fear into opponents more than West Virginia’s? It doesn’t seem all that likely, especially after watching the Mountaineers dominate in their first two games of the season against Tennessee and Youngstown State.
Averaging nearly 50 points per game in their first two contests, the Mountaineers seem to be a runaway train with no chance of anyone slowing it down or stopping it.
Yes, that includes Kansas State, the next “victim” on the Mountaineers’ 2018 schedule. Bill Snyder and the Wildcats have plenty of experience with upsets, but going into Morgantown and stealing a win won’t be an easy task against a Big 12 title favorite.
It’s time to be bold ahead of Saturday’s Big 12 matchup.
3. David Sills V has more receiving yards than Kansas State
Though Kansas State has the leading receiver, Isaiah Zuber, between the two teams heading into this game — albeit in one more game played — West Virginia’s top wide out will have the last laugh on Saturday afternoon.
David Sills V will kick off Big 12 play with one of his best career games, catching 11 passes for 194 yards and three touchdowns. He will finish with more receiving yards than all Kansas State receivers combined.
Will Grier and Sills V have a great connection and that’ll only be strengthened in this one.
As if the Big 12 needed any more reason to worry about the Mountaineers’ offense, the fact that Grier and Sills V will be in midseason form in the conference opener is actually a frightening thought.
