The many challenges that today’s college student-athletes face, on and off the playing field, are unmatched in the history of higher education. Unfortunately, many students are not well prepared to face these chal-lenges or encounter life issues that undermine health and success in college. To prepare student-athletes for the demands of college life and beyond, the NCAA developed the CHAMPS (Challenging Athletes Minds for Personal Success)/Life Skills program.

In the spring of 1995, West Virginia University Intercollegiate Athlet-ics initiated its own CHAMPS/Life Skills program. WVU was one of only 170 schools selected by the NCAA to participate in their national pilot program.

Five programming “commitment” areas viewed as critical to personal growth are part of WVU’s model. They are: 1) academic excellence, 2) personal development, 3) career development, 4) athletic excellence, and 5) community service.

For more information, see WVU intercollegiate athletics psycholo-gist Dr. Ed Etzel in Room 275a in the Coliseum at (304) 293-7062 or online at WVUsports.com/page.cfm?section=12102

dISCovER oRANGE Bowl CHAmpIoNS Orange Bowl MVP Geno Smith threw for a bowl-record 407 yards and six touch-downs and ran for another score to lead West Virginia to an impressive 70-33 vic-tory over No. 14 Clemson on Wednesday, Jan. 4. West Virginia tied or set 28 Orange Bowl individual, team and combined team records by the end of the night. The game was tight early, before WVU scored at the beginning of the second quarter to take a four-point lead, 21-17. On their next possession, the Tigers were driving deep in Mountaineer territory when Doug Rigg forced a Clemson fumble on the goal line, and Darwin Cook picked it up and raced 99 yards for a touchdown, giving West Virginia an 11-point lead. That started the fury, as the Mountaineers proceeded to outscore the Tigers, 35-3, to put the game out of reach. The Mountaineers’ 70 points were the most points scored all-time in a bowl game. The 49 points scored by WVU in the first half and the 35 points scored in the second quarter were also the most points scored in bowl history.

At HomE The 2012 season marks the 33rd season of competition for West Virginia at Mountaineer Field at Milan Puskar Stadium. WVU holds a 147-52-4 (.736) all-time re-cord at the facility, which opened in 1980. The Mountaineers averaged 56,532 per home game in 2011; a total of 10,958,225 fans all-time have watched a game at Mountaineer Field.

oFFENSIvE lINE Center Joe Madsen and right guard Jeff Braun return for their third year as starters, tackle Pat Eger returns for his second season as a starter and redshirt senior Josh Jenkins, who redshirted in 2011 with a knee injury, returns for his final season as a three-year starter at left guard. These four linemen have played in 118 games and return 98 starts. Quinton Spain played in all 13 games last year at tackle and guard and started one, and Curtis Feigt played in four games last year at tackle and started one. The offensive line returns 63 percent of the snaps and 62 percent of the starts from last season. Then add in Josh Jenkins’ 11 games started and 709 plays participated in during the 2010 season returning and the number increases. Spain saw action in 266 plays last year and Feigt was used on 65 plays. Behind the blocking of the line, the Mountaineer offense averaged 37.6 points per game and finished with more than 4,500 yards passing and more than 6,100 yards of total offense.

He led the WVU in 2010 in tackles with 76, including 41 solo tackles, had 4.5 tackles for loss, a sack, a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries. Last season, he missed two games to injury but still put up similar numbers, finishing fourth on the team with 72 tackles, including 43 unassisted tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks, three pass breakups and two interceptions. His top performance of the year was against Pitt, when he registered 14 tackles, including nine unassisted and had a tackle for loss. He had nine tackles at Maryland and returned an interception 37 yards for a touchdown in the first quarter.

tHE Cook dId It Safety Darwin Cook enjoyed a solid second year on the Mountaineer defense. He is the leading tackler returning in 2012, finishing with 85 stops, including 51 unas-sisted. He also had four pass breakups, two interceptions and returned two fumbles. Cook took center stage at the Orange Bowl, when he picked up a Clemson fumble on the goal line and raced 99 yards for the touchdown to give WVU a bigger lead in the second quarter and helped to break open the game. Last year, he registered double-figure tackles in three games, 11 against Norfolk State and at Rutgers and had 10 against Louisville. He had a 21-yard interception return against Pitt and had a season-high two pass breakups at Rutgers.

Head Coach Dana Holgorsen 108

coaches & staff

After a first season that was nothing short of outstanding, West Virginia’s Dana Holgorsen enters his second year as the head coach of the Mountaineer football program prepared to lead his squad into a new conference home in

the Big 12. Holgorsen holds an advantage in his first year in the league, bringing familiarity of the conference and its member institutions with him, having coached for nine of the past 12 years at either Texas Tech or Oklahoma State. The staff he has assembled this season has a certain Big 12 flair to it, with more than half of the coaches having either coached in the league or recruited in the Southwest. Under his direction in 2011, the Mountaineer program finished with an overall record of 10-3, earned its sixth Big East Conference championship since 2003 and seventh overall and was awarded the league’s BCS Bowl bid for the third time. Holgorsen became the only West Virginia head football coach to either win a conference champi-onship or win 10 games in his first season. The first-year head coach of the year honoree by the Football Writers Association of America was one of seven first-year head coaches to lead his program to a BCS Bowl game, one of three to win the game and the only first-year WVU head coach to win a BCS Bowl game. The Mountaineers’ 10 wins in 2011 tied for the fourth-most wins by a first-year head coach among NCAA FBS coaches. Holgorsen also became the fourth West Virginia head coach to lead his squad to a bowl appearance and earn a win in the game in his first year as a head coach.

West Virginia ran its string of nine or more win seasons to seven, making them one of three schools to boast that accomplishment. The Mountaineers were ranked in the national polls for 13 of the 16 weeks during the season and climbed as high as No. 11. WVU finished with 10 All-Big East honorees, including the league’s special teams’ player of the year (Tavon Austin) and three players being named to seven All-America teams. West Virginia boasted only the fourth set of 1,000-yard receivers in college football in 2011 and was one of only two schools, along with Houston, to have a 4,000-yard passer and two 1,000-yard receivers.WVU finished No. 6 nationally in passing offense, No. 13 in scoring offense and No. 15 in total offense. The Mountaineer offense ranked No. 67 in total offense in 2010, the year before Holgorsen arrived, and he took it to No. 15 in 2011. One of his star pupils, quarterback Geno Smith, the Orange Bowl MVP, had his best season and was considered not only one of the top quarterbacks in the nation but one of the top overall players. Smith completed a single-season school record 346-of-526 passes for 4,385 yards and 31 touch-downs. His 4,385 yards were the most passing yards by a Mountaineer or a Big East quarterback in a season. Wide receiver and spe-cial teams’ demon, Austin, a first team all-conference receiver, collected a school-record 101 catches for 1,186 yards and eight touchdowns. Stedman Bailey, also an all-confer-ence receiver, collected a school-record 1,279 yards and tied the school record with 12 touchdowns. The Holgorsen era officially began on June 10, 2011, when he was named the school’s 33rd head football coach. Since that time, he has been non-stop in his efforts to tell anyone who will listen what Mountaineer football has to offer and what lies ahead for the program. From the time he was named head coach, he spent countless hours spread-ing his philosophy that no one person was bigger than the team; and through hard work, dedication, teamwork and fulfilling your responsibilities on and off the field, the West Virginia football program will continue to achieve success. Holgorsen arrived in Morgantown in December 2010, bringing with him a highly successful resume, which included a fast-paced, high-flying, top-shelf scoring offense with national appeal that Mountaineer nation wanted so badly for its program. The players bought into his plan during the spring, as he and his staff installed the system. By the end of April, the offensive scheme had shown signs of a transformation, looking completely different than it had in previous years. Fast-forward six months from that initial meeting in December and the reins of the entire Mountaineer program were entrusted to Holgorsen. Before coming to Morgantown, Holgorsen spent the 2010 season as the offensive coordinator at Oklahoma State. He was a finalist for the 2010 Broyles Award, given to the nation’s top assistant football coach, and also named the rivals.com Offensive Coordinator of the Year. The Cowboys led the nation in total offense during the regular season and finished No. 2 in passing offense and No. 3 in total and scoring offense. OSU averaged 520.23 yards per game in total offense, including 345.9 passing yards and 44.23 points per game. Oklahoma State’s offense ranked No. 61 nationally in total offense in 2009, the year before Holgorsen arrived, and he took it to the No. 1 spot during the 2010 season. He was a vital member of the coaching staff, helping lead the Cowboys to a then school-record 10 wins during the regular season and a win in the Valero Alamo Bowl, after preseason predictions had OSU near the bottom of the Big 12 Conference. Postseason accolades rolled in for Holgorsen’s offensive players as quarter-back Brandon Weeden became the first OSU passer to earn All-Big 12 first team honors. He was a finalist for the Manning Award, given to the top quarterback in the nation.

Receiver Justin Blackmon won the 2010 Biletnikoff Award, given to the top receiver in the nation, and running back Kendall Hunter was a finalist for the Doak Walker Award, given to the nation’s top running back. Weeden, Hunter and Blackmon became only the second trio in NCAA his-tory to pass for at least 3,000 yards, run for more than 1,500 yards and finish with more than 1,500 yards receiving in the same season. Prior to OSU, Holgorsen was the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Houston. During his two-year tenure with the Cougars, his offenses once again put up explosive numbers, accounting for 563 yards of total offense per game, passing for 433.7 yards per game and totaling more than 42.2 points per game. His offense ranked No. 3 in total offense in 2008 and No. 1 in 2009. His quarterback, Case Keenum, led the nation in total offense in 2008 and 2009, totaling 403.2 yards per game as a sophomore and 416.4 yards his junior season. He also ranked among the Top 10 nationally in pass efficiency both years. Holgorsen was a member of the coaching staff at Texas Tech from 2000-07, serving as the inside receivers coach from 2000-04, before being elevated to

co-offensive coordinator in 2005 and offensive coordi-nator in 2006-07. During his time in Lubbock, his offenses increased the amount of yardage from 324.8 yards of total offense to 529.6, an increase of more than 200 yards per game. The Red Raiders were No. 7 nation-ally prior to Holgorsen becoming offensive coordinator and raised their yardage total to No. 4 in 2005, his first season directing the offense. In his two years as offensive coordinator, his squad was nationally ranked No. 8 in 2006 and No. 3 in 2007. In 2007, Texas Tech led the nation in passing (470.31), was No. 2 in total offense (529.62) and

was No. 7 in scoring offense (40.9). Quarterback Graham Harrell led the nation in total offense and Biletnikoff Award winner Michael Crabtree led the nation in receptions per game and receiving yards per game. In 2006, the Red Raiders ranked No. 3 nationally in passing offense and No. 6 in total offense. Harrell once again was outstanding, finishing No. 3 nationally in total offense with 344.38 yards per game. Texas Tech led the nation in passing in 2005, was No. 4 in scoring offense (39.4) and No. 6 in total offense (495.83). Quarterback Cody Hodges was No. 2 in the nation with 396.08 yards per game. Top players under Holgorsen’s guidance at Texas Tech were Wes Welker (259 career receptions, 3,069 yards, 21 TDs), a current NFL star, Nehemiah Glover (2,575 yards, 21 TDs), Mickey Peters (2,318 yards, 22 TDs) and 2004 third team All-American Trey Haverty (1,019 yards). Holgorsen also spent time at Valdosta State (1993-95) as the quarterbacks, receivers and special teams coach, Mississippi College (1996-98) as the quarterbacks, receivers and special teams coach and at Wingate (1999) as the quarterbacks and receivers coach. While at Valdosta State in 1994, Chris Hatcher won the Harlon Hill Trophy, the NCAA Division II Player of the Year award, by the second-largest vote margin in the 17-year history of the award. Hatcher won the award after throwing for 4,076 yards and 55 touchdowns, against just 10 interceptions, while completing 367 of 508 passes. Hatcher led Division II in passing efficiency during the regular season and directed VSU to its first Division II post-season appearance. During his coaching career, his teams have earned 11 bowl appearances. Four of his top pupils - Blackmon (Jacksonville Jaguars), Crabtree (San Fran-cisco 49’s), Harrell (Green Bay Packers) and Wes Welker (New England Patriots) - are in the National Football League. Holgorsen, a native of Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, graduated from Iowa Wesleyan in 1993 and earned his master’s degree from Valdosta State in 1995. He was a three-year letterwinner as a wide receiver at Iowa Wesleyan, finishing his career No. 5 on the school’s all-time receiving yards list with 1,711 yards and sixth in all-time receptions with 145. He has three children, McClayne, Logan and Karlyn.

Holgorsen’s offensive ProwessSince 2005, Dana Holgorsen has been the mastermind behind some of the nation’s most prolific of-fenses. Starting as the offensive coordinator at Texas Tech, then Houston and Oklahoma State, and now as the head coach at West Virginia, his offensive units are known for their ability to move the ball, pile up yardage and score a plethora of points. In Holgorsen’s first season with the Mountain-eers in 2011, his offense averaged 37.6 points per game and finished with more than 6,100 yards of total offense.

In a bizarre evening in the Mountain State, Dana Holgorsen’s debut

as West Virginia’s 33rd head football coach got off to a winning start

with a 34-13 victory over Marshall.

With West Virginia leading 27-13 at the 4:59 mark of the third

quarter, both teams had to leave the field and seating area as Milan

Puskar Stadium was evacuated due to severe rain and lightning. After

a three hour and three minute delay, the game resumed until the 14:36

mark of the fourth quarter, when lightning forced the teams off the field

again. Both delays totaled four hours and 22 minutes, before the game

ended with West Virginia coming away with the victory.

Marshall struck first with 10:18 left in the opening quarter when

Andre Booker returned a punt 87 yards for a quick 7-0 lead for the

Herd.

The Mountaineers responded with a 10-play, 71-yard drive that

ended with a Tyler Bitancurt 27-yard field goal, cutting the deficit to

7-3.

West Virginia would go on to put the next three scores on the

board. First, quarterback Geno Smith hit Ivan McCartney with a four-

yard strike to end another 10-play drive. Then Smith directed a 13-play

scoring march and connected with Stedman Bailey on a 15-yard toss,

before Bitancurt came on again and connected on a 43-yard field goal

for a 20-7 Mountaineer advantage late in the second quarter.

Marshall responded with a 10-play drive of its own that went for 72

yards, and the Herd got a 24-yard field goal from Tyler Warner as the

half expired to cut the West Virginia lead to 20-10.

The Thundering Herd again cut into the West Virginia lead at the

5:14 mark of the third, when Warner converted on a 21-yard field goal

attempt to pull the Herd within seven at 20-13.

But West Virginia quickly erased the Marshall momentum on the

ensuing kickoff, as Tavon Austin returned the Herd kick 100 yards for a

score and a 27-13 West Virginia advantage. It was the second kickoff

return of Austin’s career, and he became just the sixth Mountaineer in

school history to record a 100-yard kickoff return.

Soon after the Austin return, the rain came and the sky lit up as

severe weather blanketed the entire state.

When play resumed, West Virginia went on the offensive again and

basically put the game away when tailback Vernard Roberts rushed in

from one-yard away for a 34-13 advantage.

The second delay lasted one hour and 19 minutes before both

school administrations and conference offices determined it was in the

best interest of the student-athlete to end the 3:30 pm game at 10:24

p.m.

West Virginia was led by quarterback Geno Smith, who passed for

249 yards on 26 completions and two touchdowns. Bailey hauled in

five catches for 76 yards, while Najee Goode led all tacklers with seven.

Marshall received 115 yards passing from true freshman Rakeem

Cato, as he completed 15-of-21 passes. Tron Martinez led the Herd

ground game with 76 yards rushing, while Antavious Wilson led

the Herd receivers with 64 yards. Marshall’s defense was paced by

defensive backs Darryl Roberts and Devin Arrington with six tackles

each.

Statistics for the shortened contest showed West Virginia with 42

yards rushing and 249 passing for 291 yards of total offense. Marshall

finished with 72 yards on the ground and 115 in the air for 187 yards of

offense.,

With the win, West Virginia improved to 11-0 all-time against

Marshall and 8-0 all-time against the Thundering Herd in Morgantown.

In the latest “Friends of Coal” Bowl series, West Virginia improved to

6-0 against Marshall.

n a tale of two halves, West Virginia scored 45 second-half points to

defeat Norfolk State, 55-12, at Milan Puskar Stadium.

The Spartans took a 12-10 lead into the locker room at halftime,

but could not handle the WVU passing attack in the second half as

quarterback Geno Smith passed for a career-best 371 yards and tied his

previous high mark of four touchdowns. Smith’s passing yards were the

seventh-highest in school history.

However, the Spartans hit some big plays early to propel them into

the lead. The Spartans went up 3-0 on a 50-yard field goal by Everett

Goldberg and followed that up with a 39-yard Ryan Estep field goal for

a 6-0 lead with 14:41 to play in the second quarter.

West Virginia answered with two scores of its own. The first was a

17-yard Tyler Bitancurt field goal to end a 10-play drive, and the second

was an 18-yard pass from Smith to receiver Devon Brown, giving the

Mountaineers a 10-6 lead.

But Norfolk State would not go away in the first half. The Spartans

bounced back with Estep field goals of 39 and 40 yards, the second

one coming as the half ended, giving the visitors a 12-10 lead at the

intermission.

The Mountaineers were a different team in the second half and

unleashed a 28-point third quarter to put the rout in motion. WVU scored

on seven straight possessions in the second half, and ran the clock out

on its eighth.

Early in the third, tailback Vernard Roberts scored on a three-yard

run on the half’s opening possession. Receiver Tavon Austin pulled in a

three-yard touchdown reception, followed by a three-yard scoring run

by true freshman Dustin Garrison.

Tyler Urban closed out the scoring in the third stanza with a 12-yard

touchdown reception, and after trailing 12-10 after two quarters, the

Mountaineers took a commanding 38-12 lead after three periods of play.

Three more scores followed in the fourth quarter for West Virginia.

Ivan McCartney’s 39-yard touchdown catch was the longest scoring

play in the game at the 14:10 mark of the fourth.

Bitancurt added his second field goal (21 yards) at the 9:39 mark

before a 30-yard pass from backup quarterback Paul Millard closed out

the scoring, when he hit receiver Brad Starks with 3:18 left in the game

to finish off a 10-play, 57-yard scoring drive.

Three of West Virginia’s nine scoring drives consisted of 10 plays or

more as the Mountaineers racked up 102 yards rushing and 431 passing

for an impressive 533 yards of total offense.

Besides Smith’s impressive numbers, Brown turned in a 109-yard

receiving day on four catches. Austin added 82 yards receiving and

McCartney 79 as the passing game clicked. Roberts led the WVU

ground game with 64 yards rushing.

The Mountaineer defense did not allow a touchdown for the second

straight game and received 11 tackles from Darwin Cook and eight from

Terence Garvin.

Spartan quarterback Chris Walley finished with 136 yards passing.

His main target was Xavier Boyce, who caught eight passes for 100

yards. Takeem Hedgeman led the running game with 62 yards, and

Corwin Hammond and Onyemechi Anyaugo paced the defense with a

combined 17 tackles.

Norfolk State finished with 88 yards rushing and 197 passing for 285

yards of offense.

With the win, West Virginia upped its record to 12-0 all-time against

FCS schools and is now riding an 18-game non-conference winning

streak at home. WVU’s 431 yards passing is the first Mountaineer 400-

yard passing effort since 1998, while the 533 yards of total offense was

the first 500-yard output since 2009.

West Virginia captured the first road victory of head coach

Dana Holgorsen’s tenure with a 37-31 victory over

Maryland.

The Mountaineers overcame an early 3-0 deficit to take a

commanding lead only to hold off a furious Terrapin comeback for the

win.

Trailing 3-0 after a Nick Ferrara 25-yard field goal, West Virginia

took the lead for good at the 3:02 mark of the first quarter, when

tailback Vernard Roberts scampered in from nine yards away to end a

10-play, 88-yard scoring drive.

The Mountaineers quickly upped their lead to 14-3 with 1:44 left

in the first quarter, when Terence Garvin intercepted a Danny O’Brien

pass and returned it 37 yards for a score and a 14-3 West Virginia

advantage, heading into the second quarter.

West Virginia added two more scores to its lead, when kicker Tyler

Bitancurt added a 35-yard field goal at the 13:33 mark, and Andrew

Buie scored on a 10-yard touchdown run to give WVU a 24-3 lead.

Maryland answered at the 2:32 mark, when receiver Kevin

Dorsey hauled in an 18-yard touchdown pass from O’Brien to cut the

Mountaineer lead to 24-10.

However, as time expired in the half, Bitancurt was good on a 34-

yard field goal to end a nine-play drive and put the Mountaineers in the

locker room with a 27-10 lead at the half.

It appeared as if West Virginia was going to turn the game into

a rout on its first possession of the third quarter, when quarterback

Geno Smith connected with receiver Stedman Bailey for a 34-yard

touchdown pass, giving the Mountaineers a 34-10 advantage with

11:36 remaining.

However, Maryland would have nothing to do with a rout and

staged a furious comeback in front of the fifth largest crowd in Byrd

Stadium history.

Behind the running of Davin Meggett, the Terps started the

comeback, when he scored on a 20-yard touchdown run. The Terp

defense started to stiffen, and running back D.J. Adams added a six-

yard scoring run, before the end of the third quarter to put the score at

34-23 with a quarter left to play.

Adams again found the end zone with a two-yard rush, and

Meggett rushed in for the two-point conversion to cut the margin to

34-31 with 10:29 left in the game.

However, the Mountaineers proceeded to eat some clock with a

5:41 scoring drive, but only could get a 21-yard Bitancurt field goal out

of it as Maryland stayed within striking distance at 37-31 with 4:42 left

to play.

O’Brien marched the Terps down to the WVU 37-yard line and even

converted a crucial fourth down play, but safety Eain Smith ended the

Maryland rally on a third-down and eight play, when he intercepted

O’Brien with 1:13 left in the game to seal the WVU win.

Smith passed for 388 yards, and for the first time in school history,

three receivers went over the 100-yard receiving mark in a game, as

Tavon Austin (11-122), Bailey (8-113) and Ivan McCartney (8-101)

pulled off the feat. Linebacker Najee Goode contributed 13 tackles in

the win.

O’Brien finished with 289 yards passing, and Meggett gained 113

yards on the ground. Eric Franklin topped all tacklers with 15.

WVU rushed for 92 yards and passed for 388 to total 480 yards

of total offense. The Terps netted 188 yards on the ground and 289

through the air for 477 yards of offense.

The win gave West Virginia a six-game winning streak in the series

and three straight road wins in Byrd Stadium.

turnovers and special teams’ miscues spelled doom for West

Virginia against No. 2 LSU as the Tigers answered every punch

in defeating the Mountaineers, 47-21.

The loss overshadowed the outstanding performance of junior

quarterback Geno Smith, who completed 38-of-65 passes for a career-

high 463 yards. Smith’s numbers set school marks for completions,

attempts and yards as the WVU passing game continued to thrive in

first-year head coach Dana’s Holgorsen’s offense.

A crowd of 62,056 at Milan Puskar Stadium along, with an ABC

national prime time audience, tuned in for the non-conference

showdown between the BIG EAST and SEC.

LSU quickly jumped out to a 13-0 lead at the end of the first

quarter, when Rueben Randle caught an 11-yard touchdown pass

from Jarrett Lee. Tailback Michael Ford followed that score later in the

quarter with a 22-yard touchdown run, but the PAT failed giving the

Tigers a 13-point lead.

West Virginia got on the scoreboard at the 12:30 mark of the

second quarter, when receiver Stedman Bailey caught a 20-yard

touchdown pass from Smith to cut the WVU deficit to 13-7.

However, LSU answered with a 61-yard drive in just three plays to

quiet the Mountaineer faithful, as Odell Beckham hauled in a 52-yard

pass from Lee for a 20-7 Tiger advantage.

The Tigers struck again before the end of the half by taking

advantage of an interception that set them up deep in WVU territory.

Chase Clement’s one-yard reception gave the visiting Tigers a 27-7

lead at the half, behind three WVU turnovers.

West Virginia ignited the home fans once again in the third quarter

and got Milan Puskar Stadium rocking with two scores to cut the LSU

lead down to 27-21 at the 1:16 mark.

Tyler Urban was the recipient of a 12-yard Smith touchdown pass

to end an 80-yard drive, and tailback Dustin Garrison dove in from

one-yard away to finish off a 90-yard drive.

With the Mountaineers down only six and with what seemed to

be all the momentum, LSU answered with what turned out to be the

knockout blow.

On the ensuing kickoff after the Garrison score, LSU’s Morris

Claiborn returned the kick 99 yards to stun the stadium and put the

Tigers up 34-21 heading into the fourth quarter.

LSU finished the game with two more scores in the final stanza.

Running back Michael Ford scampered in from 15-yards away to end

a nine-play drive, and Alfred Blue scored on an 18-yard run, ending

a 55-yard drive, and giving the Tigers the big road non-conference

victory in their first ever trip to Morgantown.

Aside from Smith’s fine totals, West Virginia placed two receivers

over the 100-yard mark as Tavon Austin hauled in 11 catches for 187

yards. Bailey had a strong evening with eight catches for 115 yards

and a touchdown. The Mountaineer defense was paced by linebacker

Doug Rigg with nine tackles, followed by Najee Goode with eight.

Ward and Ford led the Tiger rushing attack with 92 and 82

yards, respectfully. Lee was solid with 180 yards passing and three

touchdowns. Randle caught six passes for 53 yards and a score,

while Eric Reid topped LSU in tackles with seven.

The LSU defense was heralded as one of the nation’s best coming

into the game, but the Mountaineers totaled 70 yards on the ground

and 463 in the air for 533 yards of total offense. LSU finished with a

balanced 186 yards rushing and 180 passing for 366 total yards.

Two fumbles and two interceptions doomed the Mountaineers

and ended their 18-game non-conference home win streak.

Behind the running of true freshman Dustin Garrison, West Virginia

stormed past Bowling Green, 55-10, on a wet and cold afternoon

at Milan Puskar Stadium.

Garrison became WVU’s first 100-yard rusher of the season with 291

yards on 32 carries and two touchdowns. He averaged 9.1 yards per

carry and tied the WVU record for the second-best rushing performance

in school history. His rushing total was the best mark for a WVU freshman

and the single-best mark in the nation through the first five weeks of the

season. His 233 yards at halftime also set the school mark for yards in a half.

Behind Garrison and an improving offensive line, West Virginia totaled

an impressive 643 yards of total offense with 360 yards coming on the

ground and 283 through the air. More impressive was the fact that WVU

had 306 total rushing yards after four games and passed the season total

in one game. The 643 yards of total offense was the best of the decade

and the Holgorsen era. The total offense number comes in as third-best

in school history and tops in the 31-year history of Milan Puskar Stadium.

The rain and cold did not seem to bother the Mountaineers, who

were turnover free, while only punting once. West Virginia used a fumble

recovery on the game’s opening kickoff to record a 3-0 lead, as kicker

Tyler Bitancurt connected on a 30-yard field goal.

The lead was short-lived and Bowling Green’s Boo Boo Gates

returned the ensuing kickoff 77 yards to the WVU 18. From there, Falcon

quarterback Matt Schilz hit Ray Hutson for an 18-yard scoring pass, and

the Falcons went ahead 7-3.

Bowling Green increased its lead to 10-3 later in the first quarter when

an 11-play drive resulted in a 21-yard field goal from kicker Stephen Stein.

However, those three points proved to be the final ones for the

Falcons, as West Virginia’s offense took control to score the next 52

points.

Before the first quarter ended, receiver Ivan McCartney grabbed a 33-

yard touchdown pass from quarterback Geno Smith, and running back

Shawne Alston rushed in for an eight-yard score and a 17-10 WVU lead

after one quarter of play.

The Mountaineers added three more touchdowns in the second

quarter to take a 38-10 lead at the half.

Receiver Ryan Nehlen caught the first touchdown of his career at

the 12:38 mark on a 15-yard reception. Garrison rushed in from 19-yards

away at the 8:53 mark, and receiver Brad Starks added a six-yard scoring

catch with 2:43 left in the half.

West Virginia kept its foot on the throttle in the third quarter behind

the running of Garrison and the passing of Smith. For his second score

in the game, Garrison reached the end zone from eight yards away, while

Bitancurt added a 45-yard field goal for a 48-10 Mountaineer advantage

with one quarter left to play.

The scoring ended at the 7:52 mark of the fourth quarter when Alston

rushed in from eight yards out, giving him two touchdowns in the game.

Garrison also finished with two touchdowns, and Smith passed for three

scores. Stedman Bailey went over the 100-yard receiving mark for a

school-record third straight game, finishing with four catches for 112

yards.

On defense, Keith Tandy came away with two interceptions, while

Jewone Snow led the WVU defense in his first career start with nine

tackles.

Bowling Green got 119 yards rushing from Jamel Martin, and Dwayne

Woods and Aaron Foster led the defense with 10 tackles each.

The Falcons finished with 103 rushing yards and 114 passing for 217

total yards.

With the win, West Virginia improved to 4-1 on the year and 3-0 all-

time against Bowling Green with all three games coming in Morgantown.

A 33-point second half enabled West Virginia to capture its first BIG

EAST win of the 2011 season with a convincing 43-16 victory

over Connecticut in the conference opener for both teams.

The Mountaineers put up 541 yards of total offense on the Huskies

with 469 coming through the air. Quarterback Geno Smith completed

27-of-45 passes and 450 yards, with four touchdowns to pace the

offensive attack.

Smith’s favorite target was once again receiver Stedman Bailey,

who turned in a school-record fourth straight 100-yard receiving

performance. Along with an 84-yard touchdown reception, Bailey

hauled in a total of seven catches for 178 yards and two touchdowns to

lead all receivers for the game.

After Connecticut’s opening drive ended in a missed field goal, the

Mountaineers wasted no time in getting on the scoreboard. A 61-yard

drive resulted in a 31-yard Tyler Bitancurt field goal for a 3-0 WVU lead

with 7:43 left in the first quarter.

However, Connecticut’s keep-away game was working early and

long sustained drives by the Huskies kept the Mountaineer offense off

the field.

A 4:13 drive resulted in a 40-yard David Teggart field goal, before

he followed that up with a 53-yarder at the 14:53 mark of the second

quarter to give UConn a 6-3 lead.

Sparked by a 24-yard completion from Smith to Bailey, West Virginia

took the lead for good with 2:44 left in the half, when running back

Dustin Garrison rushed in from 14-yards away. However, UConn made

the most of the final minutes and moved the ball 53 yards to convert a

22-yard Teggart field goal to put the halftime score at 10-9 in favor of

the Mountaineers.

West Virginia took control of the game in the third quarter with a

23-point outburst, while the Mountaineer defense held the Huskies at bay.

A key stretch came at the 7:54 mark of the third, with Connecticut

driving to the WVU 13-yard line. UConn quarterback Johnny McEntee

fumbled, and the ball was recovered by WVU linebacker Jewone Snow,

who returned it 83 yards to the UConn 12-yard line. That play ignited the

Mountaineer offensive outburst. Two plays later, Smith connected with

receiver Tavon Austin for a 12-yard scoring toss and a 17-9 advantage.

On WVU’s first play of its next possession, Smith hooked up with

Bailey for an 84-yard touchdown reception to extend its lead to 24-9.

The Mountaineer defense got in on the scoring action, as Bruce Irvin

and Snow sacked McEntee for a safety, before receiver Brad Starks

made a leaping 22-yard touchdown catch, giving the Mountaineers a

33-9 lead heading into the fourth quarter.

The West Virginia offense wasn’t done in the final stanza, adding 10

more points. A 33-yard Bitancurt field goal, along with a Smith strike to

Bailey from 27-yards out at the 9:50 mark, gave WVU a 32-9 advantage.

The Husky defense intercepted backup quarterback Paul Millard

later in the fourth and returned it 48 yards for a score, putting the final

total at 43-16.

Aside from Smith and Bailey’s offensive numbers, Ivan McCartney

turned in 131 yards receiving on six catches, while the strong WVU

defensive effort was led by Snow with seven stops and the 83-yard

fumble return.

UConn got 193 yards passing from McEntee and 73 yards rushing

from Lyle McCombs to total 275 yards of offense. Sio Moore led the

Husky defense with eight stops.

With the win, West Virginia improved to 7-1 all-time against

Connecticut and 4-0 all-time in Morgantown.

[ octoBeR 21, 2011 · SyRAcUSe , n.y. ]

Syracuse capitalized on strong special teams play and two West

Virginia turnovers to defeat the Mountaineers, 49-23, in a Friday

night ESPN game at the Carrier Dome.

The Mountaineers lost at Syracuse for the first time since 2001 and

have dropped two straight in the long-standing series after winning

eight in a row against the Orange from 2002-09.

The Orange got strong play from quarterback Ryan Nassib,

who played mistake-free football in passing for 229 yards and four

touchdowns, while also rushing for one score to account for five in the

game. A fired-up Syracuse defense blitzed most of the evening and

pressured WVU quarterback Geno Smith enough to slow down a West

Virginia offense that was averaging 40.8 points per game coming into

the contest.

The game did not get out of hand until the second half as first-half

action saw a competitive contest despite some Mountaineer miscues.

The Orange started off the scoring on their second possession with

a 14-play, 84-yard drive that saw Nassib hit Nick Provo for a three-yard

touchdown.

West Virginia answered with a 10-play drive that resulted in a 27-

yard Tyler Bitancurt field goal to cut the deficit to 7-3 with 1:06 left in the

opening quarter.

The Orange went up 14-3, when Nassib rushed in from one-yard

away to close out a 14-play, 80-yard drive. However, the Mountaineers

quickly answered and seemed to be in good shape, as Smith hit receiver

Stedman Bailey on a long 64-yard touchdown reception. With a missed

extra point, WVU only trailed the Orange 14-9 with 8:41 left in the half.

Any momentum the Mountaineers gained was quickly lost on

the ensuing kickoff, as Dorian Graham’s 98-yard kickoff return for

a touchdown took the wind out of WVU’s sails. A late Syracuse

interception on the goal line thwarted another potential score for the

Mountaineers, giving the Orange the lead 21-9 at the half.

West Virginia’s opening possession of the second half once again

gave the Mountaineers some momentum, as they marched 57 yards in

14 plays and got a touchdown behind a one-yard plunge from Shawne

Alston, cutting the deficit to 21-16 with 10:07 left.

But just like the first half, Syracuse answered back. David Stevens

hauled in a 29-yard pass from Nassib for a 28-16 score and the flood

gates started to open.

Syracuse added two more scores, before WVU could answer.

Nassib hit Provo for a 10-yard scoring toss to end the third quarter

and then found him again at the 11:29 mark of the fourth for a five-yard

touchdown reception and a 42-16 Syracuse advantage.

Smith connected with receiver Brad Starks for West Virginia’s final

score, as the two hooked up for a 25-yard touchdown completion at the

9:18 mark.

Syracuse ended the scoring with 5:26 left in the game on Antwon

Bailey’s three-yard run, giving the Orange the commanding 26-point

victory.

West Virginia overcame a 10-point halftime deficit and a

horrendous October snow storm, along the Northeast, to

defeat Rutgers, 41-31, for the 17th-straight time.

In a rare October snow storm that left New Jersey in a state of

emergency, both teams battled heavy snow, cold temperatures and

strong wind gusts for the entire game, but still managed to put up a

combined 72 points.

West Virginia took advantage of some big plays, like touchdown

runs of 80 and 52 yards, while Rutgers used a time consuming offense

to keep the ball away from the West Virginia offense.

By taking advantage of the strong wind behind its back, Rutgers

capitalized on good field position to score first on a San San Te 40-yard

field goal at the 7:17 mark of the first quarter.

West Virginia answered the score 1:10 later when running back

Shawne Alston scored on a 52-yard touchdown run for a 7-3 WVU

lead.

But the flurry of scoring in the opening quarter was just beginning.

Rutgers regained the lead at 10-7, when quarterback Gary Nova found

Mohamed Sanu for a 14-yard scoring pass.

The Mountaineers answered just 14 seconds later, when Tavon

Austin took a reverse 80 yards for a 14-10 West Virginia lead at the 3:17

mark. The Scarlet Knights closed out the scoring in the first quarter,

when Nova found Mark Harrison for a 45-yard touchdown pass and a

17-14 Rutgers lead.

The Mountaineers took advantage of a Rutgers fumble to regain the

lead at the 12:59 mark of the second quarter, when Alston rushed in

from two-yards out for a 21-14 advantage.

However, the rest of the first half belonged to Rutgers, as the

Scarlet Knights added two Jawan Jamison touchdown runs of one and

18 yards to take a 31-21 lead into the locker room at halftime.

Trailing by 10 on poor field conditions certainly could give the

impression that this was the year for Rutgers to break the streak, but

the Mountaineers controlled the second half with a strong defensive

effort and by outscoring the Scarlet Knights 20-0.

After holding Rutgers scoreless on its first two second-half

possessions, the Mountaineers pulled closer on a Geno Smith to

Stedman Bailey 19-yard touchdown reception at the 7:23 mark of the third.

Down three in the fourth quarter, the momentum swung when

Rutgers faked a field goal try, which resulted in an incomplete pass, and

the Mountaineers had new life.

From its own 11-yard line, West Virginia marched 89 yards in 11 plays

to retake the lead, 34-31, when Smith called his own number and rushed

in on fourth-and-one with 6:19 left.

On RU’s next possession, WVU’s Julian Miller came up with his second

fumble recovery in the game, and the Mountaineer offense did the rest,

moving 37 yards in three plays, capped off by a 20-yard touchdown pass

from Smith to Austin to extend its lead to 10. To complete the second-half

shutout by the Mountaineer defense, the unit held Rutgers scoreless on

its next two possessions to give the Mountaineers their second BIG EAST

win of the season.

Smith finished with 218 yards passing, while Alston turned in his first

career 100-yard rushing effort with 110 yards on 14 carries. Safety Darwin

Cook led the defense with 11 stops.

Rutgers was led by Nova with 235 yards passing, and Jamison

totaled 96 yards on the ground. Justin Francis led the Scarlet Knights

defense with 10 tackles.

Despite the poor weather, both teams put up solid numbers. West

Virginia rushed for 210 yards and passed for 218 to total 428 yards.

Rutgers rushed for 151 yards and passed for 235 to total 386 total yards.

louisville won for the first time in Morgantown since 1990 and

broke a four-game losing streak to West Virginia with a 38-35

victory over the Mountaineers.

Two fumbles and special teams’ miscues proved too much for

West Virginia to overcome, even though the warm, sunny November

day started off brightly for the Mountaineers.

Brad Starks returned the game’s opening kickoff 62 yards to the

Louisville 30-yard line to set up the game’s first score. Three plays later,

WVU quarterback Geno Smith hit receiver Tavon Austin for a 25-yard

scoring toss and a 7-0 lead.

However, it took Louisville just 2:38 to answer, as the Cardinals

marched 73 yards to tie the game on Jeremy Wright’s eight-yard

run. The scoring drive was highlighted by a 55-yard run by tailback

Dominique Brown.

Louisville took its first lead of the game with 5:44 left in the first

on Senorise Perry’s 13-yard run that ended a 78-yard drive. A 37-yard

completion from quarterback Teddy Bridgewater to Eli Rogers provided

the spark for the Cardinals.

The Mountaineers tied the game at 14-14 at the 12:18 mark of the

second quarter, when Stedman Bailey hauled in a five-yard pass from

Smith, as the Mountaineers drove 76 yards for their second score.

West Virginia recaptured the lead with 5:44 left in the first half, when

Shawne Alston powered through for a two-yard scoring run, and a 21-

14 WVU lead.

But Louisville was able to tie the game at the half, taking advantage

of an 11-yard shanked punt by the Mountaineers. Six plays later, the

game was tied at 21-21, when Bridgewater connected with Rogers.

The Mountaineers intercepted Bridgewater on the opening

possession of the third quarter, but could not come away with any

points, as Tyler Bitancurt missed a 32-yard field goal.

Later, the Cardinals put up the only points in the third quarter, when

kicker Chris Philpott converted on a 39-yard field goal, as Louisville

regained the lead for good at 24-21.

West Virginia mounted a drive late in the third, but was stopped at

the Cardinal six-yard line as the third quarter ended. To start the fourth,

Bitancurt’s 23-yard field goal to tie was blocked and returned 82 yards

for a touchdown by Andrew Johnson. Instead of the game being tied,

West Virginia found itself down, 31-21, with 14:42 left in the game.

Two possessions later, the Mountaineers closed the gap to 31-28,

when Alston rushed in from seven-yards out to end an impressive 96-

yard, eight-play drive that was aided by a 46-yard completion from

Smith to receiver Ivan McCartney.

Trailing by three with 8:53 left, the Mountaineers needed a stop

on defense and could not get one. The Cardinals converted on third-

and-seven and fourth-and-one to keep the ball for 7:11, resulting in a

three-yard touchdown run by Brown and a 38-28 margin.

WVU added a score late, when Smith found Bailey in the corner of

the end zone, but the Cardinals recovered the onside kick to end any

comeback hopes.

Smith finished with 410 yards passing, as Bailey (118 Yards) and

Austin (90 yards) were his favorite targets. Darwin Cook led the defense

with 10 stops. Bruce Irvin had a game-high two sacks and three TFL’s.

For the Cardinals, Bridgewater passed for 246 yards, while Brown

rushed for 69 and Rogers had 69 yards receiving. Hakeem Smith led

the defense with 10 tackles.

The Mountaineers rushed for 123 yards and passed for 410 to total

533 yards of offense. The Cardinals finished with 105 yards on the

ground and 246 via the pass for 351 yards of total offense.

West Virginia earned a road victory over a ranked opponent

the hard way with a thrilling 24-21 win over Cincinnati in

Paul Brown Stadium.

The Mountaineers trailed early, made a comeback to take the lead,

only to relinquish it to a furious Cincinnati rally, before holding on at the

end thanks to a blocked field goal attempt for their seventh victory of

the season and third in BIG EAST play.

The Bearcats looked strong early, forcing West Virginia’s offense

out on downs. UC then scored the game’s first touchdown in just three

plays, when Isaiah Pead broke loose for a 40-yard touchdown run.

To West Virginia’s credit, the Mountaineers never panicked and

quieted the Bearcat faithful four plays later with a 59-yard touchdown

bomb from quarterback Geno Smith to Stedman Bailey to tie the game

at 7-7, with 11:37 left in the opening quarter.

Both defenses held until the 9:35 mark of the second quarter,

when West Virginia put together an 11-play, 72-yard drive that ended

with a 28-yard Tyler Bitancurt field goal. The WVU scoring drive was

highlighted by pass completions of 39 and 21 yards from Smith to

receiver Tavon Austin.

With West Virginia leading 10-7, a game-changing play by the

Mountaineer defense altered the Cincinnati game plan. Bearcat senior

quarterback Zach Collaros was sacked by WVU’s Bruce Irvin and

fumbled the ball in the end zone, before it was recovered by Julian

Miller for a Mountaineer touchdown and a 17-7 lead.

More importantly though, Collaros suffered a broken ankle on the

play, forcing backup quarterback Munchie Legaux into action. While

the West Virginia offense could not put any more points on the board

in the first half, the West Virginia defense returned the favor on the

Bearcats, enabling the Mountaineers to take the 10-point lead into the

locker room.

After keeping the fleet-footed Legaux in-check from the middle of

the second quarter to the midway point of the third, the backup broke

loose at the 8:48 mark of the third for a 65-yard run, but a missed field

goal kept the Bearcats off the board.

Legaux was at it again on Cincy’s next possession, as he connected

with Pead for a 45-yard pass play and then took it in himself from

seven-yards out, cutting the WVU lead to 17-14 with 4:19 left in the third.

Cincinnati took advantage of a WVU fumble to take the lead early

in the fourth on a 10-yard run by Pead.

Trailing for the first time since the opening minutes, WVU started

a 12-play, 74-yard drive with 13:13 left in the game and retook the

lead at the 8:46 mark on a one-yard plunge by Shawne Alston. WVU

converted two crucial third down long-yardage plays to keep the drive

alive.

The WVU defense held Cincy scoreless on two straight

possessions, before the Bearcats got one last chance with 2:01 left.

UC got to the WVU 14-yard line with two ticks left, but Tony Miliano’s

31-yard attempt was blocked by Eain Smith to save the day for the

Mountaineers.

The game was about as even as it could get as both teams totaled

404 yards of total offense. West Virginia managed 32 yards on the

ground and 372 in the air, while the Bearcats finished with a balanced

190 yards on the ground and 214 passing.

Smith passed for 372 yards and had two 100-yard receivers in

Austin and Bailey. Linebacker Najee Goode paced the defense with

eight tackles. Pead topped the Bearcat numbers with 113 yards

rushing and 67 receiving, while JK Schaffer had nine tackles.

The win gave the Mountaineers a two-game winning streak in the

series with Cincinnati.

Just like previous “Backyard Brawls,” the 104th edition went

right down to the end, with West Virginia overcoming a

14-point deficit to claim a 21-20 victory in front of a sellout

crowd of 60,932 at Milan Puskar Stadium.

Pitt opened up the scoring by taking advantage of West Virginia

miscues and penalties. The Mountaineers had the Panthers stopped

after a Kevin Harper missed field goal, but a personal foul penalty

gave Pitt new life. The Panthers went on to complete a 13-play, 71-

yard drive that ended with a Zach Brown one-yard rush, and a 7-0 Pitt

lead.

The Panthers extended their margin to 14-0 with 2:14 left in the

opening quarter, when Isaac Bennett motored in from six-yards out,

giving the Panthers two scores in three drives to start the game.

West Virginia closed the gap to 14-7 with 7:23 left in the first half,

when quarterback Geno Smith connected with receiver Stedman

Bailey for a 63-yard scoring play.

After stopping Pitt on its next possession, West Virginia fumbled

the ensuing punt, which was recovered by Pitt at the WVU 33-yard

line. Five plays later, the Panthers made the Mountaineers pay for the

miscue by adding a 30-yard Harper field goal for a 17-7 advantage.

West Virginia did manage a Darwin Cook interception just before

halftime, but the Mountaineer offense could not move the ball, and

the Panthers took the 10-point lead into the locker room at the half.

Pitt got the ball to start the second half, and the Mountaineer

defense held once again, but another fumbled punt by the

Mountaineers put the Panthers back in business at the WVU 16-yard

line.

A strong defensive stand forced the Panthers into a 27-yard field

goal by Harper, and their lead was upped to 20-7 with 11:29 left in the

third.

The Mountaineers answered the score with their second

touchdown, by putting together a seven-play, 60-yard drive. Running

back Shawne Alston pulled the Mountaineers to within six at 20-14 on

his eight-yard scoring run at the 8:52 mark of the third.

An impressive defensive effort continued to keep the Mountaineers

in the game, as the unit only allowed Pitt 80 yards in the second half

and no drive longer than 23 yards over the final two quarters.

West Virginia took its first lead of the game with 6:04 left, when the

Mountaineers completed an 83-yard drive on Alston’s one-yard run

for a 21-20 WVU lead.

From there, the West Virginia defense did the rest, coming up with

10 sacks in the game, including nine on Pitt’s final 25 plays to hold

the Panthers scoreless on their final two possessions to secure the

come-from-behind win.

Smith passed for 244 yards, with 102 yards going to Tavon Austin

and 80 to Bailey. Julian Miller led the defense with 12 tackles and four

sacks. Punter Corey Smith also played a key role in turning the field

with his four punts for an average of 57.2 yards, including a long punt

for 62 yards.

Pitt got a combined 136 yards rushing from Bennett and Brown,

while Tino Sunseri passed for 137 yards. Buddy Jackson and Max

Gruder led the Panther defense with eight tackles each.

Final totals showed WVU with 113 yards rushing and 244 passing

for 357 yards of offense. Pitt totaled 159 yards on the ground and 137

through the air for 296 total yards.

In the victory, West Virginia set six offensive school records, and

has now won three straight “Backyard Brawls.” In all-time BIG EAST

play against Pitt, West Virginia leads the series 14-7 and is now 16-7-

1 in the last 24 games against the Panthers.

tyler Bitancurt’s 28-yard field goal as time expired gave West

Virginia its sixth BIG EAST championship in nine years, and

seventh overall as the Mountaineers defeated USF, 30-27,

before a Thursday night ESPN national audience.

The dramatic victory saw West Virginia control the game for

three quarters, only to fall behind in the fourth, before staging the all-

important comeback.

The field goal was the second game-winning kick as time expired

for Bitancurt in three years, but this one came on the road and was

good enough for a conference championship and a nine-win regular

season.

The dramatics for both teams came in the fourth quarter. West

Virginia led for three and a half quarters thanks in part to a solid

defensive effort and strong special teams.

The Mountaineers’ first score came at the 13:29 mark of the second

quarter. By taking advantage of a blocked punt by Willie Milhouse,

WVU went up 3-0 on Bitancurt’s 23-yard field goal.

West Virginia extended its lead to 10-0 at the 8:29 mark, when

cornerback Pat Miller intercepted USF quarterback B.J. Daniels for a

52-yard touchdown return.

The Bulls got on the scoreboard with 5:13 left in the first half, when

Daniels connected with Sterling Griffin for a 20-yard pass play. The

pass was originally ruled incomplete, but replay overturned the call,

and the Bulls had the 10-play, 80-yard drive in the books.

The Mountaineers added a second Bitancurt field goal with just 22

seconds remaining in the half. The drive was aided by a 20-yard run by

quarterback Geno Smith to put Bitancurt in range for the 42-yarder.

West Virginia took the opening drive of the second half and moved

deep into USF territory, but came away empty after fumbling on the

Bulls’ three-yard line.

The fumble recovery sparked USF, who then marched 82 yards in

10 plays and closed the gap to 13-10, after Maikon Bonani converted

a 32-yard field goal.

On the ensuing kickoff, WVU’s special teams came up big once

again as Tavon Austin returned the kick 90 yards for a score, and a

20-10 Mountaineer lead. The kickoff return was Austin’s second of the

season and third of his career.

The Bulls added a field goal late in the third to pull within 20-13,

setting up fourth quarter fireworks for both teams.

A 15-play, 72-yard drive enabled the Bulls to tie the game with

10:01 left on Daniels’ one-yard rush. Then USF took its first and only

lead on WVU’s next possession, when Smith was intercepted by

JaQuez Jenkins for the pick six from 24 yards away, and a 27-20 lead.

With USF seemingly in control, the Mountaineers answered with an

11-play drive that covered 77 yards and ended with Dustin Garrison’s

five-yard rush to tie the game at 27.

USF marched deep into WVU territory and seemed ready for the

go-ahead score, when WVU linebacker Najee Goode forced a Daniels

fumble that was recovered by teammate Doug Rigg at the WVU 28-

yard line.

Aided by five plays of nine yards or more, along with a 26-yard

completion on fourth and 10 from Smith to receiver Stedman Bailey,

the WVU offense gave Bitancurt the chance, and he seized it.

Final totals showed West Virginia with 127 yards rushing and 237

passing for 364 total yards. USF totaled 171 yards on the ground and

226 in the air for 397 yards of offense.

The victory gave West Virginia nine or more wins for the seventh

straight season, and also at least a five-win conference mark for the

seventh straight year.

West Virginia turned in a record-shattering performance in

the Discover Orange Bowl as the Mountaineers scored the

most points in bowl history with a 70-33 victory over No.

14 Clemson.

More than 28 Orange Bowl individual, team and combined team

records also were tied or smashed in the game as MVP Geno Smith

threw for a bowl and BCS record 407 yards and six touchdowns, while

adding a rushing touchdown, to lead the way for the Mountaineers.

Junior receiver Tavon Austin was Smith’s favorite target on the

night with a BCS and bowl record four touchdown receptions. His final

totals stood at 117 yards receiving and a bowl-record 280 all-purpose

yards.

The game was exciting from the start with the two teams combining

for 31 points in the first quarter. The Tigers held a 17-14 lead at the

end of the quarter on the strength of a 68-yard scoring run by Andre

Ellington that started the scoring, a 27-yard pass from Tajh Boyd to

Sammy Watkins and a 42-yard Chandler Catanzaro field goal.

West Virginia answered the Clemson scores with a four-yard

Shawne Alston touchdown run to end a 72-yard drive and an eight-

yard scoring reception by Austin.

The second quarter is when the game changed for good. Instead of

both teams trading scoring punches, West Virginia reeled off 35 points

to take command of the game.

With Clemson up 17-14, Austin caught a 27-yard TD pass from

Smith for a 21-17 WVU lead at the 13:25 mark. Clemson then marched

72 yards and was on the verge of taking the lead, when Ellington was

stripped by linebacker Doug Rigg at the one-yard line. Darwin Cook

scooped up the loose ball and dashed 99 yards for a momentum-

changing touchdown. Instead of a Clemson lead, the Mountaineers

found themselves up 11 at 28-17 with 10:28 left in the half.

Clemson responded with a 43-yard Catanzaro field goal at the 4:49

mark to cut the deficit to 28-20, but the Mountaineers blew the game

open in the final minutes of the half.

The Mountaineers answered the Clemson score with a 64-yard

drive capped by a seven-yard run by Smith. Pat Miller intercepted

Boyd to set up Smith’s third scoring toss to Austin for a 42-20 WVU

advantage.

The first half onslaught continued after Bruce Irvin stripped Boyd

on Clemson’s next possession, and WVU’s Najee Goode recovered the

ball at the Tiger 18-yard line. Five plays later, Alston added his second

touchdown run in the game by bulling over from the one-yard line for a

49-20 Mountaineer lead at the intermission. WVU’s 49 points also were

a bowl and BCS record for most points in a half.

Knowing Clemson’s ability to score points in a hurry, the

Mountaineers did not let up in the second half, taking the opening

possession 73 yards, which ended on a six-yard scoring toss from

Smith to Stedman Bailey for a 56-20 lead.

After holding Clemson on downs, the Mountaineers went 74 yards

and took a 63-20 lead, when Smith hit Austin for a 37-yard touchdown

reception with 9:18 left in the third.

The Tigers added a touchdown late in the third and fourth quarters,

but between the two scores Willie Milhouse had a seven-yard

touchdown reception to end a 66-yard WVU scoring drive that put the

Mountaineers at the record mark of 70 points.

Final totals showed West Virginia with 182 yards rushing and 407

passing for 589 yards of offense. Clemson finished with 193 rushing

and 250 passing for 443 yards.

The appearance was WVU’s first in the Orange Bowl, and the win

gave the Mountaineers a 3-0 mark all-time in BCS bowl games and

evened the all-time series with Clemson at 1-1.

He accounted for 20 touchdowns that season, while earning ECAC Player of the Year honors and finishing fifth in the Heisman Trophy voting. During his junior campaign, Harris threw for 17 touchdowns and ran for six, while setting school records for most total offense and quarterback rushing yards. He was a voted first-team All-America, named the ECAC Player of the Year and finished third in the Heisman Trophy voting.

A name synonymous with West Virginia football, Robert Lee “Sam” Huff ranks among the all-time great NFL linebackers. At West Virginia, Huff was a 6-1, 230-lb. tackle before being drafted in the third

round by the New York Giants in 1956. Shortly thereafter, the Farm-ington, W.Va., native became one of the greatest and most publicized linebackers in pro football history and the first defensive football play-er to make the cover of Time magazine. CBS produced a half-hour pro football documentary entitled “The Violent World of Sam Huff.” A fierce competitor and a great rival of Green Bay Packers linebacker Ray Nitsche, Huff earned Pro Bowl status five times, first as a Giant, and then as a Washington Redskin, where he finished his career in 1969. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1980 and the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1982.

A noted player and coach, “Greasy” Neale’s affilia-tion with West Virginia lasted three years as head football coach from 1931-34. Prior to his stay in Morgantown, Greasy (a nickname he had carried

since childhood), was a three-sport standout at West Virginia Wesleyan before embarking on an eight-year major league baseball career with the Cincinnati Reds. While a baseball player, Neale also found time to play professional football in the fall. Upon his retirement as an athlete, Neale became a college coaching gypsy, guiding some of the nation’s finest football programs before taking the NFL Philadelphia Eagles coaching job in 1941. Introducing the “naked reverse”, man-to-man shifting de-fenses, the stutter series and a primitive form of the 4-3 defense during his pro football coaching tenure, Neale guided the Eagles to the 1949 NFL title. The Parkersburg native was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1967 and the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1969. He died November 2, 1973, in Lake Worth, Fla.

He went on to a long and prosperous NFL career with the San Francisco 49ers and Atlanta Falcons for 13 seasons. A four-time Pro Bowl pick in 1960, 1965, 1966 and 1967, Bosley is a member of the San Francisco 49ers all-time team. The 6-2, 240-lb., center retired in 1969. He died April 25, 1995, in San Francisco, Calif.

coach at West Virginia University from 1970-75, compiling a record of 42-26 with two Peach Bowl appearances. The Birmingham, Ala., native graduated from Howard College (now Samford) in 1953 and began his coaching career as an assistant coach from 1954-55. He moved on to South Georgia Junior as head coach between 1956-58, before returning to his alma mater as head coach from 1959-62, posting a 31-6 record. His first stint at Florida State came in 1963 when he coached the wide receivers. He came to Morgantown in 1966 as offensive coordinator under Jim Carlen, before becoming the head coach in 1970. He left Morgantown in 1976 to become the head coach at Florida State and compiled a 316-97-4 record for an overall career mark of 389-129-4. He is the only coach in Divi-sion I-A football history to have enjoyed 14-straight 10-win seasons.

West Virginia’s preeminent all-around athlete, Ira Errett “Rat” Rodgers gained fame as a hard-charging fullback from 1917-19. Called one of “the finest football players in the land” by syndicated columnist Grantland Rice, Rodgers is

unanimously considered West Virginia’s finest pre-World War II football player. A consensus All-American in 1919, Rodgers gained national notoriety after a 25-0 whipping of Princeton, against which he passed for 162 yards and two touch-downs. For the season Rodgers accounted for 147 points. Later an amateur state golf champion, the Bethany, W.Va., native remained at West Virginia as football (1920-25, 1943-45), baseball (1921-42) and golf coach (1949). Rodgers was in-ducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1953. He died February 22, 1963, in Morgantown.

A two-sport letterman at West Virginia in football and wres-tling from 1930-32, he achieved great success as a head coach on the prep and collegiate level. He coached high school football for six seasons in West Virginia and Ohio,

winning two state championships at Parkersburg (W.Va.), prior to enlisting in the U.S. Army during World War II. Following his discharge, he was the head coach at Muhlenberg (N.J.) College from 1946-48, compiling a 25-5 record. He left there to become head coach at Syracuse, serving as head man there from 1949-73. His teams were an impressive 153-91-3, went to seven bowls, winning the national championship in 1959, and captured four Lambert Trophies (1952, 1956, 1959 and 1966). He was National Coach of the Year in 1959 and was inducted into the Col-lege Football Hall of Fame in 1982. He died in 1993 at age 83.

A coach at West Virginia from 1921-24, Clarence “Doc” Spears was responsible for developing West Virginia’s great football for-tunes of the early 1920s. During his coaching tenure in Morgan-

town, the school played in its first bowl game (East-West) in 1922, produced its first unbeaten team (also 1922), defeated Pitt, 9-6 that 1922 season (considered among the greatest wins in school history) and helped build a football stadium. A cordial and delightful man off the field, Spears was the opposite on it, evoking confrontations with sportswriters, alumni and fans alike. After his brief tenure in Morgantown where he also doubled as a practicing medical doctor, thus earning the nickname “Doc,” Spears also coached at Min-nesota and Oregon among others, until retiring in 1935 to devote his full time to medicine, practicing in Ypsilanti, Mich. Spears was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1955. He died February 1, 1964, in Jupiter, Fla.

A brilliant, but under-recognized two-sport athlete at West Vir-ginia until his graduation in 1936, “Jumbo Joe” Stydahar lost that distinction after surprisingly being the first player taken by the

Chicago Bears in the 1936 NFL draft -- the first player ever selected by the organization. Born in Kaylor, Pa., and later a standout at Shinnston High (W.Va.), Stydahar was a giant of a man (6-4, 245-lbs.) who became a perennial NFL all-star at tackle. A sixty-minute performer with the “Monsters of the Midway,” Stydahar played without a helmet, one of the last performers to do so. He participated on three NFL championship teams with the Bears and was named to the official all-NFL team from 1937-40. He sandwiched a two-year stint in the Navy (1943-44) in the middle of his pro career, which finished in 1946. Following his playing career, Stydahar coached the 1951 Los Angeles Rams to the NFL championship, the organization’s first and only title. Stydahar was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1956 and the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1967. He died March 23, 1977, in Beckley, W.Va.

Always in a hurry, thus the nickname “Hurry Up,” Fielding Harris Yost gained national acclaim as a college football coach at Michi-gan at the turn of the century. Yost’s travels included a stop at West Virginia, where he earned a law degree and played football

in 1895-96. After his two years at WVU, the Fairview, W.Va., native took the Michigan coaching job at age 30 in 1900. Four years later, he showed his appreciation for his alma mater at West Virginia by beating the Mountaineers 130-0, a score that didn’t endear him to the West Virginia faithful. That 1904 Michigan squad was called the “Point-A-Minute” team. Later the athletic director at Michigan, he was singularly instrumental in building the nation’s largest football stadium at Michigan. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1951. He died August 20, 1946, in Ann Arbor, Mich.

The 12th Mountaineer to be inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame, 1982 consensus All-American Darryl Talley was one of the most dominant defenders in West Virginia University and Buffalo Bills history. A four-year starter at linebacker for the Moun-taineers from 1979-82, Talley amassed 484 career tackles – the

most by any WVU player when his playing career ended. His five tackles for loss in 1980 versus Penn State still stand as a WVU single-game record. For his career, Talley had 282 unassisted tackles , 202 assisted tackles, 28 tackles for loss and 19 quarterback sacks from 1979-82. The native of East Cleveland, Ohio, went on to stardom in Buffalo as a starter for 12 outstanding seasons at linebacker from 1983-94, never missing a game while playing for the Bills. Talley is the Bills’ all-time leading tackler with 1,137 career takedowns. He also recorded 38 ½ sacks and 11 interceptions as a Bill. Talley spent the 1995 campaign with the Atlanta Falcons and played one more year with the Minnesota Vikings in 1996 before retiring.

Oliver Luck

oliver luckDirector of athletics

Successful at each of his previous career stops, Oliver Luck

continues that streak at West Virginia University. A former

Mountaineer quarterback, Luck, appointed the University’s

11th Director of Athletics by President James P. Clements on June 9,

2010, has made significant strides in his first two years to enhance

WVU’s role as a major player

in the collegiate world.

In his first year, Luck hired

four head coaches, while

maintaining WVU’s superior

level of success. In addition

to new hires, Luck over-

saw the progress of major

capital projects, such as the

$25 million WVU basketball

practice facility for men’s

and women’s basketball and

the women’s soccer training

complex. He also fostered an

atmosphere for achievement

and triumph in the classroom

and on the field.

In year two, Luck led WVU

into the Big 12 Conference,

oversaw the best fundrais-

ing year in school history,

implemented several safety

and crowd enhancements at

Mountaineer sporting events,

increased overall department

revenue, continued a master

plan for facility upgrades and

watched his football program

gain its third BCS bowl vic-

tory with a record-setting 70-

33 win in the Orange Bowl.

Luck’s athletic and professional careers have been the epitome of

success, first as a record-setting quarterback for the Mountaineers

from 1978-81, then as a professional quarterback for the National

Football League’s Houston Oilers, and later as a professional sports

executive.

After retiring from football, Luck became vice president of busi-

ness development for the NFL and later was appointed general

manager of the Frankfurt Galaxy of the World League of American

Football. He spent the 1995 season as general manager of the Rhein

Fire before being named President and CEO of NFL Europe in 1996.

Luck totaled more than 10 years with the NFL, before becoming

chief executive officer of the Harris County-Houston Sports Authority

in 2001.

In that role, Luck oversaw the development and management of

a $1 billion professional sports and entertainment complex for the

city of Houston that included Minute Maid Park, Reliant Stadium and

the Toyota Center.

In 2005, Luck was appointed as the first president of Major

League Soccer’s Houston

Dynamos, helping that orga-

nization to a pair of MLS Cup

titles in his first two years at

the helm. Luck secured the

funding for an $80 million

soccer complex to house the

Dynamos when the call came

to return to his alma mater.

BBVA Compass Stadium

was built and opened in

2012 adding to Luck’s legacy

with the professional soccer

team, and the overall Hous-

ton sports facility complexes.

He returned in May 2012

for the opening ceremony of

the soccer stadium that he

fought so hard for.

The Rhodes Scholar finalist

graduated Phi Beta Kappa

from WVU in 1982. He also

earned a law degree from

Texas, graduating cum laude

in 1987. In 1997, Luck was

inducted into the West Vir-

ginia University Sports Hall of

Fame, and in 2008, he was

inducted into the

CoSIDA Academic All-America Hall of

Fame.

He is married to the former Kathy

Wilson. They have two sons and two

daughters: Andrew, a former All-

American quarterback and two-time

Heisman Trophy finalist at Stanford

and No. 1 overall pick of the 2012

NFL draft by the Indianapolis Colts;

Mary Ellen, a junior volleyball player

at Stanford; Emily, a freshman at

Stanford and Addison, who attends

Morgantown High.

T he Mountaineers Play Here! MSN is your home for all of the excitement of

West Virginia football. Week after week, MSN’s complete coverage of the

Mountaineers has been a state tradition for more than five decades.

MSN Radio, 48 affiliates strong, blankets West Virginia while extending into five

other states. On football game days, fans have the luxury of listening to the Moun-

taineers from any point statewide thanks to the network’s strong lineup of affiliates.

Football on MSN begins with two popular pregame shows “MSN Pregame” and

“The Mountaineers Today,” featuring insights with Coach Dana Holgorsen, WVU

assistant coaches and Mountaineer players starting 60 minutes prior to kickoff. The

network’s coverage continues with an extensive halftime show, and extends well

after the final play into the locker room for postgame interviews that provide insight

from WVU coaches and players. Whether you’re at Milan Puskar Stadium, at home

or in your car, MSN Radio is a must for every fan on game day.

Fans outside the coverage area will once again be able to listen to Mountaineer

games live on the Internet by logging on to WVUsports.com, live play-by-play of

West Virginia football is just a mouse-click away. MSN’s coverage of Mountaineer

football is also available on Sirius Satellite Radio. For complete coverage of WVU

football, there’s no better seat in the house, in the car or at the stadium than with

MSN Radio.

following are soMe guidelines for coVering the 2012 Mountaineers.

Credentials: All requests for working press, photo and broadcast credentials to cover West Virginia’s 2012 home football games and the Sept. 15 game against James Madison at FedExField in Landover, Md., must be emailed to director of football communications Mike Montoro ([email protected]) on company letterhead at least two weeks prior to the game. Requests the week of the game only will be honored if space permits. Due to the demand for working credentials, media regularly assigned to cover WVU and the visiting school will receive priority. All photographers must work outside the 30-yard lines as prescribed by the NCAA; they are not permitted in the bench area extended. Photogra-phers must sign in for field access in the press box prior to each game. No children (age 16 and under) are allowed on the sidelines for any rea-son; any children on the sidelines will be removed, along with their guardians. Any abuse of a working credential to West Virginia football games can result in the media agency losing credential privileges for the remainder of 2012 and possibly the entire 2013 home season.

After The Game: Coach Dana Holgorsen will conduct a postgame news conference in the Milan Puskar Center Team Room. Holgorsen’s news con-ference also can be heard over the press box PA. Requested WVU players also will be available in the team room. No media will be granted access to the West Virginia locker room.

During The Week: Coach Dana Holgorsen will meet with the media each Tuesday afternoon in the Team Room at the Puskar Center. He will be avail-able on the Big 12 weekly conference call each Monday at 11:40 a.m., and also will wrap up the previous week’s game on Sunday night in a conference call; contact the WVU Sports Communications Office for information.

Mountaineer players will be available for interviews each Tuesday

during the dinner hour; Tuesday during dinner is also the best time for

players to return calls to out-of-town media. They will also be available

to return phone calls on Tuesday and Wednesday as class and prac-

tice schedules permit. Any special arrangements for player interviews

should be made through director of football communications Mike

Montoro at least a day in advance. Players will not be asked to miss

class or study hall for interviews and at no time will a player’s phone

number be given to the media. No player interviews will be conducted during practice sessions. The practice and interview schedule for preseason camp and game weeks will be announced in August.
