Quarterback Skyler Howard has had an roller-coaster first season as a starter at West Virginia.
The junior earned praise early in the season before a rough October stretch had some Mountaineers fans calling for him to be benched. Undeterred, Howard has led West Virginia to three straight wins after its winless October and Dana Holgorsen's team is eyeing a 8-4 final record and finish in the top half of the Big 12 standings. Heading into West Virginia's final two regular-season games, Howard has 2,549 total yards and has accounted for 24 touchdowns through 10 games. This week, Howard took some time to chat with ESPN.
