Wild finish in Waco: West Virginia ends its regular season with a W – The Gold and Blue Nation Podcast
A tale of two halves if there ever was one, but West Virginia got it done. WVU (8-4) ends the regular season with a 34-31 win over Baylor, and is heading into the postseason with back-to-back wins under its belt. Ryan Decker and Kevin Redfern react to West Virginia's comeback road win that started with a dominant offensive showing. They also have post-game comments from head coach Neal Brown.
Like any summer in Morgantown, there was no shortage of WVU football stories this offseason. We were introduced to new players, and learned more about returning players both on and off the field.
This is a collection of just some of the stories Gold and Blue Nation has written about Mountaineer football players over the past few months. Many of these articles also include links to other stories on players, coaches, and the program, as well.
