I don't think it's so confusing... we have a lot of serviceable players that have needed the help of some real playmakers to make that next leap in performance. WV was obviously not ready to play and was likely taking us lightly - and it showed... We punched them in the mouth and they never recovered.

1. I think, obviously with Shamarko and Jones back, the defense is a whole different beast.

2. I think we saw the emergence of Graham as a playmaker on offense and specials... obviously... let's see if he can add some consistency to that ability now that he'll be on opposing team's radar screens for game planning...

3. Very good offensive game calling - especially on the Tight End plays: Great pass calls to both Provo and Stevens and excellent execution by those TE's.

Lastly, the run game was solid - not spectacular and good effort by committee... and even tho the numbers don't show it, I smell an absolute bulldozer performance from Frosh Ameen-Moore in the near future... not sure against who or when, just that he will have a breakout punishing run game soon...

Reality is we probably aren't quite as good as we performed on Sat. and teams that game plan better against us and come ready to play will offer harder challenges... but obviously we are also much better with are marquee players back on the field... and hopefully Graham will continue to impress even tho the cat's out of the bag...

Special teams still concerns me and the fact that we don't have decent kick-off leg...
