When you have a lead you try different things. You don't have to worry about a mistake costing you the game.
We nor the coaching staff will know when that series of play calling will be exactly what will work against another team. I thought we played extremely smart football. My only thought was that Howard was a bit anxious on the short routes. Threw some bullets when a little finesse on the pass would have been what was needed.. First game Adrenalin , that will settle . Thought we played a well disciplined game. One thing I noticed. Number 5, I feel stupid his name wont come to mind now. But did you notice on running plays, for a true freshman his downfield blocking was exceptional. We have an AA here. He can do what he wants and has nowhere to go but to get better. I am certainly not sure that Dana said he is the fastest player he ever coach. Unless he has a bad memory and doesn't remember Tavon. Overall., first game, nice speed and reaction on D. And their attention to detail and discipline was impressive. Let's see how it translates with a passing or multiple formation offence, Its a great day to be a Mountaineer....

I think of it like when I play madden. Sometimes I will go up early, then I start getting sloppy and think because I beat them on this earlier it should keep working. Then it doesn't work and I keep trying to chuck it and completely forget about running the ball.
