About Coach Stewart
With a father-like personality held by few and a work ethic held by even fewer, New Martinsville,
W.Va., native Bill Stewart enters his third full season as West Virginia University’s head football coach.
Stewart hasn’t looked back since hitting the ground running when he was named interim head coach
three weeks prior to the 2008 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, preparing and rallying a team, a coaching staff, a
school and a state.
After guiding the Mountaineers to a remarkable 48-28 victory against Oklahoma, and arguably the
most memorable bowl win in school history, especially under the circumstances, Stewart was named West
Virginia University’s 32nd head football coach on January 3, 2008, one day after the impressive victory.
Since then, Stewart has produced consecutive 9-4 seasons, a victory over North Carolina in the Meineke
Car Care Bowl in 2008, a berth in the 2010 Konica Minolta Gator Bowl and consecutive Top 25 finishes.
Stewart’s nine victories in 2008 marked the most by a first-year Mountaineer coach in school history.
Stewart has coached 20 players to all-BIG EAST accolades in his two seasons and watched quarterback
Pat White become the NCAA’s all-time leading rushing quarterback and the first in college football history
to win four-straight bowl games as a starting quarterback in 2008.
Stewart is no stranger to Morgantown, the state of West Virginia or to the college football world as his
coaching experiences have been vast and varied.
Prior to being named head coach, he spent eight years on the West Virginia staff under WVU coaches
Don Nehlen and Rich Rodriguez, working with the Mountaineer tight ends and serving as associate head
coach in 2007 after spending the prior seven seasons coaching the quarterbacks. He also had the role of
special teams coordinator under Rodriguez.
His lengthy coaching resume began at Fairmont State, where he was a student assistant coach for a
season, before becoming an assistant coach at Sistersville (W.Va.) High School in 1975. In 1977, he moved
to Salem College, where he was assistant football and head track coach for two seasons. In 1979, he
moved to the University of North Carolina (1980); he was later an assistant at Marshall (1980), William &
Mary (1981-83), Navy (1984), North Carolina (1985-87), Arizona State (1988-89) and Air Force (1990-93).
Stewart came to WVU in January 2000, from the Canadian Football League, where he served as
offensive coordinator of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in 1999, tutoring two all-conference receivers and a
1,000-yard rusher. As offensive line coach for the CFL’s Montreal Alouettes in 1998, Stewart’s line blocked
for Mike Pringle, the first 2,000-yard rusher in CFL history.
A 1975 education graduate from Fairmont State, where he was a three-year letterman and team captain
for the WVIAC champions in 1974, Stewart earned his master’s degree in health and physical education
from WVU in 1977.
Highly regarded as one of the “good guys” in the profession, Stewart has had several personal and
professional life influences starting with his mother, father and older brother.
Stewart and his wife, Karen, also a native of New Martinsville, have one son, Blaine.

Game 3: The Maryland Game
No. 21 West Virginia 31, Maryland 17 • Sept. 18, 2010 • Morgantown, W.Va.
West Virginia started quickly and never looked
back in defeating Maryland 31-17 in front of 60,122
fans at Milan Puskar Stadium.
West Virginia quarterback Geno Smith completed his first 10 passes, and engineered four
scoring drives en-route to a 28-0 lead.
The Mountaineer defense held Maryland to -10
yards rushing, while collecting eight sacks for a
loss of 65 yards and nine total tackles for a loss
of 66 yards in a strong overall performance for
the Mountaineers.
By taking the game’s opening drive 77 yards
in seven plays, West Virginia jumped out to a 7-0
lead, when Smith hit receiver Tavon Austin in the
corner of the end zone for a six-yard scoring pass.
On its next possession, West Virginia went
up 14-0 when Smith found Austin in the same
corner, this time from five-yards out at the 8:09
mark of the first quarter. This drive accounted for
51 yards in five plays.
In the second quarter, West Virginia extended
its lead to 21-0 at the 12:35 mark, when Smith
threw his third touchdown pass in the game, a
26-yard strike to Stedman Bailey, to end a 62yard drive, and give the Mountaineers a 21-0 lead
at the half.
The first half was totally dominated by the
Mountaineers and not only on the scoreboard.
WVU out rushed the Terrapins 119-2 and out
passed the Terps 226-61 in building up the
21-point cushion.
The storyline continued at the start of the
second half. After forcing Maryland to punt on
downs, West Virginia’s Jock Sanders returned a
punt 66 yards to set up WVU’s fourth score in the
game. Smith connected on his fourth touchdown
pass in the contest, when he hit Bailey from fiveyards out for a 28-0 West Virginia advantage.
Down 28, Maryland came to life and scored 17
unanswered points to make the game interesting in the fourth quarter.
Terp quarterback Jamarr Robinson connected
with receiver Torrey Smith for a 60-yard touchdown reception, and then followed two drives
later with an 80-yard touchdown bomb to Smith
to cut the deficit to 28-14 heading into the fourth
quarter.
After Maryland intercepted a WVU trick pass
from Sanders, the Terps were in business again
and came away with a 35-yard field goal by
Travis Baltz to put the score at 28-17 in favor of
WVU with 11:59 left in the game.
However, the trick plays were over and the
West Virginia offense embarked on a power
drive that essentially put the game away. The
Mountaineers used up 8:46 of clock in a 16-play,
76-yard drive that ended with a 23-yard Tyler
Bitancurt field goal for a 31-17 lead.
Mountaineer Football
Fullback Ryan Clarke was key in the drive as he
accounted for 43 of the 76 yards, and rushed on
eight-straight plays to power the West Virginia
offense down the field and put the game away.
Smith finished with four touchdown passes
and 268 yards passing, while Noel Devine turned
in 131 yards, giving him three straight 100-yard
games to start the season. Austin led the WVU
receivers with 106 yards receiving, and linebacker
Anthony Leonard led the defense with eight
tackles as five different players collected TFLs and
sacks against the Terps.
Robinson passed for 227 yards, and Smith had
three catches for 149 yards to lead Maryland,
while the Terp defense was paced by the strong
performance of Alex Wujciak with 16 stops.
West Virginia rushed for 201 yards and passed
for 268 to total 469 yards of total offense. Maryland ended with -10 yards on the ground and 227
passing to total 217 yards of total offense against
the stingy WVU defense.
The win gave the Mountaineers their fifthstraight victory, a school best, in the series over
Maryland and a 24-21-2 overall record against the
Terrapins.

West Virginia has finished with at least 400
yards of total offense in the first three games of
the 2010 season. The Mountaineers tallied 469
yards against Maryland and at Marshall, and 400

10 games that WVU finished with at least 400
yards of total offense.
The Mountaineers rank second in the BIG

offense (266.7 avg./game) and pass efficiency
(149.8), third in rushing offense (179.3 avg./game)
and fifth in scoring offense (28.7 points-pergame).
Nationally, WVU is 26th in pass offense and
29th in pass efficiency.
Geno Smith
First-Time Starters
Six Mountaineers received the first start of their
career this season, including Stedman Bailey (WR),
Jeff Braun (OL), Terence Garvin (DB), Pat Miller (DB),
Geno Smith (QB) and J.D. Woods (WR).
Third Down Conversions
 West Virginia has converted 52.8 percent of
its third-down attempts this season, hitting for
52.9 percent against Coastal Carolina, 44.4 at
Marshall and 61.1 percent against Maryland.
The Mountaineers have connected for 66.7
percent (6/9) in the first quarter, 50 percent (8/16)
in the second quarter, 53.8 percent (7/13) in the
third quarter, 46.2 percent (6/13) in the fourth
quarter and 50.0 percent (1/2) in the overtime
period. The WVU third-down offense is currently

Defensively, WVU is holding its opponents to
22.0 percent (9/41) on third-down conversions.
Coastal Carolina was held to 14.3 percent (2/14),
Marshall to 44.4 percent (8/18) and Maryland to

receivers have at least one catch this year, and five
of those receivers have scored a touchdown.
Tavon Austin, Jock Sanders and Noel Devine each
have double figure receptions with 21, 19 and 13
respectively.
Stedman Bailey has nine grabs, Will Johnson and
J.D. Woods each have three, Tyler Urban and Coley
White with two and Ryan Clarke and Shawne Alston
have one.
Mountaineer Football
A New Era
Three games into the 2010 season, and there is no doubt that sophomore quarterback Geno
Smith is the man to lead the Mountaineers to victory. Connecting on his first 10 passes and throwing
for three touchdowns in the game’s first 18 minutes, Smith piloted the Mountaineers’ 31-17 victory over
Maryland. He finished the game 19 of 29 for 268 yards and four touchdowns. He is the first quarterback
to throw four touchdowns in one game since Jarrett Brown achieved the feat against East Carolina on
Sept. 12, 2009.
Smith is now 3-0 as the Mountaineer starter. After three games, Smith ranks first in the BIG EAST
Conference in passing yards (800 yards), passing yards-per-game average (266.7 avg.) passing
efficiency (157.7) and total offense (271.0 avg.). He ranks 19th, 22nd, 21st and 26th, respectively, in the
nation in the same categories.
Engineering a late fourth-quarter Mountaineer comeback in WVU’s victory at Marshall, Smith
solidified his status as the team’s leader. With just over eight minutes remaining in regulation, and
the Mountaineers down 21-6, Smith marched the WVU offense down the field twice, capping off drives
of 96 and 98 yards with touchdowns, to force overtime and the eventual Mountaineer win. Smith
finished the game 32-of-45 for 316 yards and a touchdown. He was also swift on his feet, registering
career-long runs of 17 and 20 yards within those final five minutes.
A new era dawned for the Mountaineers in their 31-0 victory over Coastal Carolina, as Smith took over
the reins of the WVU offense, with great success. Smith earned his first start in a Mountaineer uniform
and went 20-for-27 for 216 yards, with two touchdowns and one interception. His passing yardage was
the second-best for a Mountaineer quarterback in his debut as a starter in the last 13 years. Jarrett
Brown threw for 244 yards against Rutgers in 2006.
The Red Zone Report
West Virginia has scored 15-of-18 times (83.3 percent) when inside its opponent’s red zone, scoring
31 points against Coastal Carolina and Maryland and 24 at Marshall.
The scoring consists of three rushing touchdowns and seven passing touchdowns for a total of 10
touchdowns and five field goals. The three missed attempts were two fumbles, one each against Coastal
Carolina and Maryland, and a loss of downs at Marshall.
Defensively, WVU’s opponents are scoring on 75 percent (3/4) of their red zone chances. Coastal Carolina
never reached the red zone in the game. Marshall scored 2-of-3 times in the red zone, scoring 14 points.
The Herd had two passing touchdowns and a fumble. Maryland kicked a field goal on its only time in the
red zone.
Mountaineer First Downs
West Virginia has collected 70 first downs this season, averaging 23.3 per game. The Mountaineers
have 29 rushing first downs, 35 by the pass and six by penalty.
WVU is currently tied with Wisconsin for 18th most first downs in the nation. Oregon heads the list with
85 total first downs and averaging 28.33 per game.
The Mountaineers accumulated 18 first downs against Coastal Carolina, a season-high 28 against Marshall
and 24 against Maryland. The 28 first downs against Marshall were the most since WVU finished with
30 against East Carolina in 2007.

All-Around Spectacular
Noel Devine can be counted on for more than just rushing yards.
Proving himself to be just as big of a threat with his hands as he is with his feet, Devine is collecting the receiving yards at the onset of the 2010 season. At Marshall, he finished with a game-best 10
receptions, a career-high mark, for 62 yards. He followed that performance with one nine-yard catch
against Maryland, and opened the year with two catches against Coastal Carolina for 18 yards.
With 13 receptions on the season, Devine pushes his career total to 77, the best mark for a running
back in WVU history. Additionally, his career 541 receiving yards rank fifth in program history, and he
needs 11 more yards to pass Robert Alexander (1977-80) for fourth place.
Through three games, Devine ranks eighth in this BIG EAST in receptions-per-game (4.3). Also, back
deep once again to return kicks for the Mountaineers, Devine opened the 2010 season with 15 yards
returning kicks against Coastal Carolina.

stepped onto the field for the first time as a
Mountaineer with over 12 minutes to play in the
fourth quarter of WVU’s 31-0 victory over Coastal
Carolina. The rookie went 3-for-5, including a long
pass of five yards. Classmate Jeremy Johnson also
provides quarterback depth behind starter Geno
Smith.

The Streak Continues
With six catches in WVU’s victory over Maryland, Jock Sanders moved into a tie with Rutgers’
Kenny Britt for eighth place on the BIG EAST’s
all-time consecutive games with a reception list,
having hauled in a pass in 31-consecutive contests.
Sanders’ streak began with WVU’s 2007 loss to
Pitt. Rutgers’ Brian Leonard has the all-time BIG
EAST Conference record at 47 games.
David Saunders (1995-96, 1998) was the last
Mountaineer to go at least 31-straight games with
one catch, as he opened his streak in the 1995
loss at Maryland and ended with a loss against
Missouri in the 1998 Insight.com Bowl.

Short-Yardage Solution
Sophomore fullback Ryan Clarke provided the tough running for the Mountaineers in the closing
minutes of the Maryland victory, as he ran for a career-high 65 yards on 15 attempts, also a career-best
mark, to push WVU to a fourth-quarter field goal.
On that scoring drive, which took up nearly nine minutes, Clarke caught a pass for seven yards and
carried the ball eight times for 36 yards, including a 13-yard gain in Maryland’s red zone. At one point
in the drive, Clarke carried the ball on eight consecutive plays, and also converted a crucial 3-and-1 play
in which he rumbled three yards to keep the clock moving. When the drive was completed, Clarke accounted for 43 of the 76 yards in that drive.
Through three games, Clarke ranks second on the team with 107 rushing yards for a 35.7 yards-pergame average. Through 15 games with the Mountaineers, he owns 357 rushing yards.
Against Marshall, Clarke had a team best 23-yard run on a third-and-short situation deep in WVU
territory in the second quarter to move the team out of the danger zone. He finished the game with
27 yards on five carries. Clarke also recorded an 18-yard kick return, the first of his career, in the first
quarter.
Clarke opened his second season as a Mountaineer scoring his ninth career touchdown on a oneyard dive against Coastal Carolina to push WVU to a 24-0 lead. He carried the ball five times for 15 yards
against the Chanticleers.
Two Scorers are Better Than One
Prolific players usually travel in pairs, and seniors Noel Devine and Jock Sanders are no different.
Picking up right where they left off, Devine and Sanders each crossed the goal line in the Mountaineers’ 2010 season-opening victory over Coastal Carolina. Devine also earned a 4-yard rushing score at
Marshall, bringing the duo’s 2010 touchdown total to three. Additionally, Sanders caught the Mountaineers’ two-point passing conversion to send the Marshall game into overtime.
Despite both being held out of the end zone, the Mountaineers still earned a 31-17 victory over
Maryland. The win was only the second in 41 games that WVU earned without a score from Devine or
Sanders.
Through 41 games as teammates, WVU is 6-1 when both Devine and Sanders score a touchdown.
The Mountaineers are 18-1 when just one produces points. WVU is 2-8 when neither Devine nor Sanders register points. The duo combined for 18 of WVU’s 43 touchdowns in 2009, with at least one of the
two scoring in almost every game.
Sanders Strikes All Over the Field
 Pure dual-threat Jock Sanders had his best all-purpose game of the season against Maryland,
finishing with 165 yards. Sanders tallied 86 yards on six receptions and 69 yards on punt returns,
including a game-long, career best 66-yard return. The punt return was the Mountaineers’ longest since
Vaughn Rivers returned a punt for 78 yards against Mississippi State on Oct. 20, 2007. He also tallied
two rushes for 10 yards.
Sanders proved his versatility in the 2010 season opener, gaining 71 yards on receptions and 31 yards
on rushing for 102 all-purpose yards. Though held to only one rush against Coastal Carolina, Sanders
made his touch count, as he brought the Mountaineers to within six yards of the goal line with a 31yard second quarter rush. WVU produced three points at the end of the drive.
Through 42 career games, he owns 2,518 all-purpose yards and needs 540 yards to break onto the
WVU all-time list.

Slashing, Streaking Sanders
Sanders had his most-prolific receiving
game to date this season in the Maryland victory,
as he gained 86 yards on six passes, including a
long of 32 yards in the first quarter that helped
accelerate the Mountaineers’ second scoring drive.
Through three games, Sanders ranks second
in the BIG EAST in receptions-per-game (6.3), and
seventh in the conference in receiving yards-pergame (71.3 avg.).
He now has 156 career catches, the fourth-best
all-time total at WVU. Additionally, Sanders is on a
31-game streak with at least one reception. That
streak ranks No. 3 on WVU’s reception streak list
and is tied for No. 8 on the BIG EAST streak list.
Sanders opened his final season with a bang,
collecting eight catches for 71 yards and one
touchdown against Coastal Carolina. His score, a
17-yard connection with quarterback Geno Smith,
kicked off a two- score third quarter for the
Mountaineers.
He followed that performance with a five-catch
effort at Marshall for 57 receiving yards. Included
in that total was a key 26-yard reception with
just over eight minutes remaining in regulation
that jump-started the Mountaineers’ first of two
fourth-quarter scoring drives.
Also of note, Sanders found himself on the receiving end of WVU’s game-tying, two-point conversion that forced the game into overtime. The
conversion was the first Mountaineer two-point
conversion by a pass since Dec. 2, 2006.
As a junior, wide receiver Jock Sanders collected 72 receptions, the fourth-highest amount
of catches by in a Mountaineer in a season. Along
with Noel Devine, Sanders also decided to return
for his senior season instead of leaving early for
the NFL Draft.
Woods Works Wonders
Redshirt-sophomore J.D. Woods made sure
his first catch as a Mountaineer was memorable,
as he opened WVU’s scoring against Coastal
Carolina with a four-yard touchdown reception. He
was the first Mountaineer to convert his first reception into six points since Tyler Urban’s 25-yard
touchdown reception against Rutgers in 2008.
In his first career start, Woods also caught one
pass for 19 yards at Marshall, and through three
Mountaineer Football
Awesome Austin
Wide receiver Tavon Austin has showed early signs of becoming one of WVU’s top playmakers

this season, and against Maryland, Austin proved that he is capable.
A Maryland native, Austin, a receiving-rushing threat, had a career day against the Terrapins, catching seven passes for a career-high 106 yards, including two back-to-back first quarter touchdowns that
put the Mountaineers ahead, 14-0. He is the first Mountaineer to catch two touchdown receptions
since Alric Arnett scored twice via the pass on Sept. 12, 2009, in a 35-20 victory over East Carolina in
Morgantown; receiver Stedman Bailey would also catch two touchdowns against UMD. Additionally,
Austin’s 100-yard receiving day was the first for a Mountaineer since Jock Sanders registered 115 yards
at Auburn on Sept. 19, 2009.
Austin finished the game with a career-best 172 all-purpose yards, including 57 yards on four kick
returns.
After three games, Austin ranks first in the BIG EAST in receptions-per-game (7.0) and receiving
yards-per-game (93.7 avg.). Those rankings are the 15th and 23rd best in the nation.
Austin was all over the field in WVU’s win at Marshall, helping quarterback Geno Smith when plays
appeared dead, and catching a career-best nine passes for 85 yards. He also tallied an identical 85
yards fielding three kick returns for 170 all-purpose yards.
In his first game as a sophomore against Coastal Carolina, Austin finished with 101 all-purpose yards,
catching five passes for a game-best 90 yards, and rushing twice for 11 yards.
Racking Up the Yardage
 The Mountaineers wasted little time at the onset of the 2010 season raking in the offensive
yards, as WVU piled up 400 yards in its win over Coastal Carolina. WVU was absolutely dominant, gaining an average of 5.6 yards over 71 plays. The team netted 216 yards in the air and 184 yards on the
ground.
Despite a sluggish start, two long, fourth-quarter drives of 96 and 98 yards pushed the Mountaineers’ offensive total to 469 yards at Marshall, including 316 yards through the air.
Against Maryland, the offense posted its third 400-plus yard total offense performance, finishing
with 469 yards on 85 plays for an average of 5.5 yards per play.
The Mountaineers are now 19-10 over the last 10 years when gaining over 200 yards passing.
Tight Ends Get In the Action
Fully incorporated into the Mountaineer offensive scheme, tight ends Tyler Urban and Will Johnson are reliable options and dependable blockers for WVU.
Against the Terrapins, Johnson’s blocking skills sprung the Mountaineers’ speedy playmakers, while
Urban was held out for the second-straight game with a knee injury.
Johnson scored his third career touchdown at Marshall, catching a five-yard pass in the back corner
of the end zone with 12 seconds remaining in regulation that forced overtime. The score was his first
of the season. He has now scored at least one touchdown each season since 2008.
Johnson opened the season with a 22-yard reception against Coastal Carolina, the second-longest
catch of his career. Urban, a three-year starter, started the 2010 season in style by grabbing two
catches for five yards against Coastal Carolina.

Stedman Steady Outside Option
Don Barclay
Redshirt freshman Stedman Bailey intro-
duced himself to the Mountaineer faithful in the
win over Maryland, catching four passes for 60
yards and two touchdowns, his first career scores.
Of Bailey’s TDs, one went for 26 yards and the
other for five.
Through three games, Bailey ranks second on
the team with 132 receiving yards, and fourth
with nine catches.
Bailey had a prolific second game with the
Mountaineers, connecting with quarterback Geno
Smith on five passes for 72 yards, including a
team-best 30-yard reception that set-up Noel
Devine’s fourth quarter, four-yard touchdown.
Bailey and Smith, former teammates at Miramar High, connected three times throughout the
Mountaineers’ late fourth-quarter scoring drives in
Huntington.
Time of Possession
 The Mountaineers held the ball for 32:09
against Coastal Carolina, 33:45 at Marshall and a
season-high 37:02 against Maryland.
Against Coastal Carolina, WVU held the ball for
19:12 in the first half, including 10:12 in the second
quarter. West Virginia had a season-high 10:53
of possession time in the fourth quarter against
Maryland.
The season high for the first quarter is 9:17
against Maryland, 9:58 against Maryland in the
second quarter and 6:54 in the third quarter
against Maryland.
In the Maryland game, West Virginia had the
ball for 19:15 of the 30 minutes in the first half,
and 17:07 of the 30 minutes in the second half.

Mountaineer Football
The Middle Man
Redshirt senior and defensive leader Chris Neild showed his upper-class leadership in the Mountaineers dominating win over Maryland, as he posted four tackles, including three solo and one sack for
a loss of three yards.
Neild’s late second-quarter sack on Jamarr Robinson was WVU’s first sack of the season and Neild’s
career fourth.
In 40 career games, Neild owns 102 total tackles, including 42 solo, and eight tackles for loss.
Against Marshall, Neild finished with one assisted tackle for no gain in the fourth quarter.
Neild helped his team in the season-opener, as the WVU defense held Coastal Carolina scoreless in
play. He also recorded one solo tackle and one assisted against the Chanticleers.
A Very Scary Berry
Defensive lineman Scooter Berry has proven that he is fully recovered from offseason shoulder
surgery, as he owns eight tackles through three games.
In the win over Maryland, Berry stepped up big with four tackles (three solo), two sacks for a loss of
27 yards and a fumble recovery. Both of his sacks were in the second half. The first came in the third
quarter when Berry sacked Jamarr Robinson for a loss of 19 yards as the Terrapins went for it on fourth
down. His second sack, for a loss of eight yards, came in the fourth quarter.
Through three games, Berry ranks eighth on the team in tackles (8). He also ranks fourth in the BIG
EAST in sacks (2). For his career, Berry owns 84 tackles, including 14.5 for a loss, and five sacks.
In his second game back, Berry posted three assisted tackles at Marshall.
It’s Miller’s Time on the D Line
A redshirt junior, Julian Miller returns to the Mountaineer D-line after enjoying a breakout season
as a sophomore.
Miller recorded one of the Mountaineers’ eight sacks against Maryland, as he tackled quarterback
Jamarr Robinson in the third quarter, forcing the Terrapins to punt. He also posted two tackles and one
pass breakup in the win.
Through 29 career games, Miller has tallied 82 tackles, including 19.5 for a loss. He also owns 13.5
sacks and eight pass breakups.
In WVU’s season-opening shutout victory over Coastal Carolina, Miller posted one solo and five assisted tackles, including one for loss, and one pass breakup. Additionally, on the Chanticleer’s second
drive of the fourth quarter, Miller recorded a two-yard tackle for loss.
Attacking the Rush
The Mountaineer defense was stellar against the Maryland rushing attack, holding the Terrapins
to minus-10 net rushing yards on 27 attempts. The game was the first time WVU held a team to negative net rushing yards since the 2006 Pitt game.
WVU held Marshall to 135 rushing yards on 27 attempts, and in the season opener, Coastal Carolina
only gained 63 yards on the ground in 33 attempts for an average of 1.9 yards per carry.
The Mountaineers held five opponents under 100 yards rushing last season, including Liberty (89),
East Carolina (62), Syracuse (72), Marshall (58) and Rutgers (65).
Since 2002, WVU has held 47 opponents under 100 yards rushing. When the team has held an opponent under 100 yards during that time, it has a record of 43-4.

Game 1: The Coastal Carolina Game
No. 25 West Virginia 31, Coastal Carolina 0 • Sept. 4, 2010 • Morgantown, W.Va.
West Virginia started the 2010 football season
off with a 31-0 shutout of Coastal Carolina at
Milan Puskar Stadium,
The stingy play of the Mountaineer defense
brought the first shutout for West Virginia since
2005 and the first home shutout since 1997.
The Geno Smith era at quarterback got started
on solid ground as the sophomore completed 20
of 27 passes for 216 yards and two touchdowns.
Smith’s passing totals were the second-best by a
WVU QB in his starting debut during the last 13
seasons.
The Smith-led offense took the game’s opening drive and marched 73 yards in 16 plays to get
the scoring started. On fourth-and-goal, Smith
connected with receiver J.D. Woods for a four-yard
touchdown pass and a quick 7-0 WVU advantage.
Early in the second quarter, West Virginia
extended its lead to 10-0, when kicker Tyler
Bitancurt connected on a 21-yard field goal to end
a seven-play, 55-yard drive.
Coastal Carolina’s best chance to score in the
first half came when Dominique Davenport
intercepted a Smith pass and returned it 37 yards
to the WVU 21-yard line. However, on the next
play, WVU’s Brandon Hogan intercepted Coastal
quarterback Zach McDowall in the end zone to
keep the Chanticleers scoreless heading into the
half.
Two scores by West Virginia in the third
quarter put the game away. First, Jock Sanders
hauled in a 17-yard touchdown strike from Smith
at the 13:32 mark, which was set up when Robert
Sands forced a Chanticleer fumble on the second
half kickoff, which was recovered by WVU’s Darwin
Cook at the Coastal 19-yard line.
With just 1:44 left in the third, fullback Ryan
Clarke dove over from the one-yard line to give
the Mountaineers a 24-0 lead. Clarke’s score
ended a strong nine-play, 75-yard drive for the
Mountaineers, highlighted by Smith completions
of 19 and 33 yards to his receivers.
West Virginia closed out the game’s scoring
with 14:11 left when tailback Noel Devine scored
his first touchdown of the season and 25th of his
career.
Devine’s four-yard run ended a 62-yard drive by
the Mountaineers, as he rushed for 55 of the 62
yards in the drive.
The Mountaineer defense halted four more
Coastal Carolina possessions in the final quarter
to preserve the opening day shutout that saw 68
Mountaineers play.
Aside from Smith’s solid numbers, Devine
totaled 111 yards rushing on 23 carries for a 4.8
yards per carry average. Devine’s totals marked
his 16th-career 100-yard rushing game, and WVU
improved to 13-3 all-time when he rushes for 100
Mountaineer Football
or more yards. Sanders rushed for 31 yards and
caught a game-high eight passes for 71 yards.
Receiver Tavon Austin caught five passes for 90
yards with a long of 33, while Woods’ first collegiate catch was good for the game’s first score.
The Mountaineer defense was led by safety
Terence Garvin with 10 tackles, followed by linebacker Anthony Leonard and defensive lineman
Julian Miller with six.
West Virginia rushed for 184 yards and passed
for 216 to total an even 400 yards of total offense. The Mountaineer defense played a huge
role in the game, holding the Chanticleers to just
63 yards rushing, 123 yards passing and 186 yards
of total offense. Coastal Carolina averaged just 1.9
yards per rush and 3.1 yards per play against the
veteran Mountaineer defense.
The 31-point win was the largest margin of victory for a Bill Stewart-led team at West Virginia.
WVU is 59-1 in its last 60 games when scoring
more than 30 points. The Mountaineers improved
to 95-29-4 all-time in season openers and 9318-2 all-time in home openers. Since the 2000
season, West Virginia is now 11-0 all-time against
NCAA FCS opponents.

Game 2: The Marshall Game - “Friends of Coal Bowl 5”
No. 23 West Virginia 24, Marshall 21 (OT) • Sept. 10, 2010 • Huntington, W.Va.
West Virginia rallied from a 15-point deficit in
the final 8:28 of the game to force overtime and
defeat Marshall, 24-21, in the Friends of Coal Bowl.
Needing two big drives late in the fourth
quarter, the Mountaineer offense responded with
a nine-play, 96-yard drive, followed by an 18-play,
98-yard drive to stun the Marshall faithful and
record the come-from-behind victory.
Marshall started quickly and took the opening
kickoff 80 yards in just six plays for a 7-0 lead,
when quarterback Brian Anderson hit Antavious Wilson on an eight-yard scoring strike. The
scoring drive was highlighted by a 55-yard run by
Thundering Herd tailback Martin Ward.
West Virginia responded on its first drive,
marching 42 yards in nine plays and coming
away with a 34-yard Tyler Bitancurt field goal to
cut the Herd lead to 7-3 with 7:31 remaining in
the opening quarter.
West Virginia’s offense continued to move the
ball in the first half, but the Mountaineer drives
eventually stalled, while Marshall hit for the big
play.
At the 11:15 mark of the second quarter, the
Herd was backed up to its own four-yard line
when Anderson unleashed a bomb and connected with receiver Aaron Dobson for a 96-yard
touchdown pass, giving Marshall a 14-3 lead at
the half.
West Virginia’s Tavon Austin returned the
second half kickoff 50 yards, but a fumble on the
second play of scrimmage cost the Mountaineers
a chance at points. WVU then used a Bitancurt
33-yard field goal to put the score at 14-6 in favor
of the Herd, but that was all the scoring for either
team in the third quarter after Marshall blocked a
Bitancurt field goal attempt at the 2:35 mark.
The Herd used the blocked field goal to its
advantage and marched 68 yards to open a 21-6
advantage at the start of the fourth quarter,
when Anderson found Wilson for his second TD
reception in the game.
The two teams traded drives before Marshall
seemed in total control by forcing a Geno Smith
fumble at the 10:17 mark of the fourth. But, the
Mountaineers gained new life when the Herd’s
Tron Martinez fumbled deep in WVU territory with
8:28 left in the contest.
Nine plays later, WVU tailback Noel Devine
rushed in from four yards away to cut the Herd
lead to 21-13. The Mountaineer defense needed a
stop and got it, as the Herd returned the ball at
the 3:09 mark of the fourth with the Mountaineers 98 yards away from the end zone.
Highlighting the 15-play drive was a Smith rush
for 20 yards, and the sophomore quarterback
completed 9-of-12 passes in the drive, finding
tight end Will Johnson in the back of the end
Mountaineer Football
zone for a five-yard score with just 12 seconds
left. Smith then hit Jock Sanders for the twopoint conversion to complete the comeback and
force overtime.
In the first overtime, WVU drove to the three,
and came away with a 20-yard field goal by
Bitancurt. Marshall was stopped after three plays
and was forced to try a 39-yard field goal, and
the game ended as Tyler Warner’s attempt went
wide right and silenced the Joan C. Edwards
Stadium record crowd of 41,382.
Smith finished with 316 yards passing and
Devine with 112 rushing as the Mountaineers
totaled 469 yards of total offense. WVU collected
194 yards in 24 plays on its final two drives in
regulation. Linebacker Najee Goode led the
defense with 10 stops.
For the Herd, Anderson passed for 229 yards
and Dobson led all receivers with 120 yards, as
Marshall finished the game with 364 yards of
total offense. Linebacker Mario Harvey was strong
with 16 tackles.
With the win, West Virginia upped its record to
10-0 all-time against Marshall and 3-0 all-time in
Huntington.
