Admit it. You've thought about it. "How good is this West Virginia team?" OK, they beat Georgia in the Sugar Bowl last year. Yes, they are 2-0 this year. But they play in the Big East and have only beaten Marshall and Eastern Washington so far. Its tough to measure how good the Mountaineers are before they play a legit program, and their stars have yet to shine through on the big stage. After all, are Pat White and Steve Slaton really Heisman candidates?
Well, if you are like me, you are dying for these questions to be answered this Thursday. The Mountaineers will have their first legitimate game in less than 48 hours against the Maryland Terrapins.
West Virginia will try to establish their rushing game with the aforementioned White and Slaton, but if they struggle in this one, it will leave some doubt as to whether they are a top five program.

The game will be aired on ESPN at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, September 14.
