West Virginia Football: 5 players who earned Blitz Stickers vs. Kansas State
By Phil Poling
The first Blitz Sticker this week goes to the conductor, the guy who directs the entire (offensive) performance — Will Grier. We mentioned he didn’t look perfect, but he’s got time to build up some steam and really get rolling.
Grier tallied over 330 passing yards and at least four touchdowns for the third time in as many games this season. In total, Grier amassed 356 yards and five touchdowns against the Wildcats.
The one-time Gator did link up with his favorite target from a year ago, David Sills, for 10 catches and three touchdowns. What is it with these two against Kansas State? In two games against the Wildcats, the duo has been nearly impossible to contain. Sills has caught 14 passes for 136 yards and five touchdowns from Grier.

It wasn’t all about Sills, though, as Grier hooked up with six other targets on the day. Gary Jennings, Marcus Simms, and T.J. Simmons contributed per usual, but sophomore Tevin Bush caught two passes for 69 yards and a score, and Grier found tight end Jovani Haskins once for 15 yards as well.
