Summary
.Joining us for this week’s Flagship Podcast interview to help preview Texas’ game at West Virginia Saturday at 11 am CT (on ESPN2) is Mike Casazza of EerSports.com.
The Mountaineers (4-6, 2-5 Big 12) and Longhorns (4-6, 2-5) are both in need of a win to try to become bowl eligible and both are coming off consecutive losses.
Texas has lost five in a row for the first time since 1956, while WVU has lost two in a row (against Oklahoma State and Kansas State).
Casazza breaks down what went right for WVU in a 38-31 win over Iowa State and what wrong in a 23-20 loss in Morgantown against Texas Tech.
Quarterback Jarret Doege, who leads the Big 12 in passing yards, also leads the Big 12 in interceptions. Casazza says, “You’ll know early on“ which Doege is showing up against Texas.
Could another WVU quarterback make an appearance in Saturday’s game? Casazza lets you know.
Casazza breaks down the strength of WVU’s defense and where the Mountaineers could be vulnerable.
What’s special about WVU’s special teams? Casazza gives you the intel as well as his prediction for how the game will play out.
Plus, Casazza breaks down Bob Huggins’ WVU basketball team, including some atypical traits for a Huggins-coached team.
