West Virginia really disappointed me this year. I picked them to potentially challenge for the Big XII title, but a brutal schedule and some incredibly unlucky injuries have derailed their chances. I feel completely confident saying that when they are completely healthy, they have a top 10 secondary in the nation. QB Skyler Howard was hailed by some as the next big thing, and hasn't really panned out. Wendell Smallwood is averaging 6 yards a carry, but outside of him the Mountaineers don't have a running threat. Shelton Gibson is explosive, but he hasn't been having the crazy statistical season some predicted him to have.
