Good start. Youngstown game shouldn’t hurt any of these national statistics rankings.
Will Grier is #4 in national passing yardage stats with 429.
Arkansas’ K.J. Carta-Samuels is the ONLY Power 5 QB ahead of Grier in total passing yardage.
David Sills in #21 in receiving yards with 140 on 7 catches because Grier threw to 11 different receivers, including Gary Jennings, who is #39 with 6 catches for 113 yards.
So Sills and Jennings had 13 catches for 253 yards, or nearly 19.5 yards per catch. Pretty impressive.
WVU is #8 in team offensive efficiency. Only Oklahoma, #1 nationally, does better among Big 12 teams.
WVU is #9 in overall efficiency (offense, defense, special teams combined) among Power 5 schools.
My alma mater, of course, has to do it on the field where it counts against Youngstown and North Carolina State and its Big 12 opponents.
But WVU is off to a solid start.
