West Virginia beat Baylor 70-63 last Saturday, and now the Mountaineers play at Texas, which is coming off its own shootout, 41-36 over OSU, and who knows how many points will be scored in Austin.

“Is this how we want football to be?” Saban asked this week on the SEC coaches teleconference.
Not in the SEC, they don't. But that's life in the Big 12.
Saban said his problem with the new-age offenses is health.
“You can't substitute defensive players; you go on a 14-, 16-, 18-play drive and they're snapping the ball as fast as they can (and) all of your players are walking around and can't even get lined up,” Saban said. “That's when guys have a much greater chance of getting hurt, when they're not ready to play.

Sign me up for that. Like I wrote last week, I'm all for limited substitution. Or any rule changes that help the defense.
