West Virginia has been radically transformed by second-year head coach Neal Brown. Predecessor Dana Holgorsen preferred up-tempo offense for College Football odds success. While the defense was an afterthought. And that’s what kept the Mounties from closing on a Big 12 Conference title. Conversely Brown has turned the Mountaineers defense into an asset. The tradeoff is offensively they’re nowhere near what they used to be in the Holgorsen era. In sum, the Mounties record hasn’t changed much at all. Of course, Oklahoma has no problems scoring points. Like West Virginia, OU’s defense has shown marked improvement too.
