West Virginia's Julian Miller looks to add to his sack total when the 22nd-ranked Mountaineers meet South Florida Thursday night. Miller became the active Football Bowl Subdivision leader with 27.5 sacks following a four-sack performance in last week's win in the Backyard Brawl over Pittsburgh. He leads Vinny Curry of cross-state foe Marshall by one. The defensive tackle tied a WVU (8-3, 4-2 Big East) record and more than doubled his sacks on the season with the performance - which began with the senior nursing an ankle injury. Miller's focus now is on South Florida (5-6, 1-5) with a share of the conference title and possible BCS bid on the line for the Mountaineers.
