of late. Eliminate the 219-yard effort against woeful UNLV, and the Mountaineers averaged only 81 ypg against LSU, USF and Syracuse. Tonight, they face a UConn run defense that has had issues.

"I thought our quarterback did a pretty good job, but maybe Bill Stewart put too much on our quarterback," Stewart said. "I don't think so, but we've gone back to what coaches do: 'What's this guy do best? What's that guy do best?' If we think we can run the ball a little better, that's what we're going to do. If we think we need to do more moving the pocket - bootlegs, nakeds - we'll do that. It depends on what you're seeing and what you do best."
