Key matchup:

West Virginia's WRs vs. Alabama's CBs: The Mountaineers list four starting receivers on their official depth chart and they'll hope to use all of them against an Alabama secondary that was uncharacteristically vulnerable in 2013. Juniors Cyrus Jones and Bradley Sylve will square up against the top targets on most plays. Both players had solid preseasons and appeared to learn from the mistakes and inconsistency they showed last season. Daikiel Shorts and Mario Alford are among the top options for West Virginia, which had five different players account for at least 400 receiving yards last year....

... and will our receivers get separation from their DBs?  It's time we see some WRs running wide open.  Let's make it easy for these new QBs.
