West Virginia’s terrible defense and productive offense add up to four straight 1,000-yard games

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — The West Virginia Mountaineers have achieved four consecutive games with 1,000 yards of offense, a record since 2020. Led by quarterback Mike Hawkins Jr. and running back Cam Cook, the team's offense has been unstoppable. However, their defense has been struggling, giving up large leads in each game. Coach Rich Rodriguez and his staff have been working to improve the defense, but it remains a weak point. Despite the losses, fans are hopeful that the new defensive approach will see improvements.
