West Virginia seems like a paper tiger to me. They keep eeking by in these track meet like games. They haven't played a living, breathing defense all year. Nor have they had a single game that they won in an impressive fashion. It's just offense, offense, offense. If they played in the SEC, they'd be no better than the 5th or 6th best team.
Be interesting to see them play K State in a few weeks. People seem to be completely writing off K State, while WVa is already being treated like a title contender. But at least K St plays defense.
I think there are at least three teams in the SEC that would definitely beat WVa (Bama, South Carolina, and Florida), and at least a few more (Miss State, LSU, and Georgia) that would have at least 50-50 odds. For that matter, even if Tennessee couldn't stop them, I'm betting that Tyler Bray & Co could at least put up 40+ points on WVa and make it interesting.
LSU's offense is horrible, but I'd bet they'd practically shut down Geno Smith. It would at least be a close game. After this SC loss, I'm convinced that Georgia's defense is terrible, but I really see no reason that Georgia couldn't at least keep up in a track meet vs. WVa, either.
