We are closing in on two weeks before the West Virginia Mountaineers will begin prepping for the Pitt Panthers when they open the 2022 season on September 1st, at Heinz Field Acrisure Stadium. The Mountaineers will be looking to determine a quarterback and begin repping him while installing a new offense. The installation of a new offense is a welcome change as the past three years have been a stagnant representation of the type of offenses many fans have been accustomed to seeing in their decade in the Big 12.
While a better, more vertical offense is the hope that is being installed, I am left to wonder if this could have a negative effect on the defense.
