College Football 26 Simulation Predicts Ugly Offensive Performance for WVU vs. BYU

It has not been confirmed, but the expectation is that the West Virginia Mountaineers will start redshirt freshman Khalil Wilkins at quarterback for tonight's game against No. 23 BYU.

Although it was a small sample size, Wilkins showed flashes of what he could potentially develop into by throwing his first touchdown pass to Cam Vaughn and running around for 39 yards. Facing off against a top-15 defense on the road and on a short week isn't necessarily how you'd like your young quarterback to get his first start, but the injuries to that room have created this situation.

How will Wilkins and the Mountaineers do tonight in Provo? If our weekly College Football 26 simulation is right, you might want to go ahead and plan on going to bed at your normal time rather than staying up into the wee hours of Saturday morning.
