While I do agree that WVU's ranking is suspect, let's not get ahead of ourselves. I'd be willing to bet WVU could go 11-1 with our schedule. We didn't exactly run a gauntlet of tough defenses to get to where we are.
Assuming they played the same schedule (i.e. location, time, injury status) they might have trouble at Washington, at PSU, and against Illinois. Purdue might be able to pass on them but the Boilermaker's defense wasn't anything special. Michigan? Yeaaah.
Honestly I think Illinois could beat them because their defense has the tools to stop WVU's offense - outstanding linebackers, quick D-line, etc. There would also be 5 combined pass attempts in that game, and it would be over in 2 hours. But, it'd be fun to watch.
