WVU Football Depth Chart for Week 2 Road Contest vs. Ohio

New week, same order for the Mountaineers.

West Virginia University head coach Rich Rodriguez | Christopher Hall – West Virginia on SI

In somewhat expected fashion, West Virginia head coach Rich Rodriguez did not change the order of his depth chart for this week's game at Ohio.

In some ways, I understand it. You didn't really learn much in a 45-3 blowout win against an inferior opponent, and why tip your hand where there are still some "position battles" when you don't necessarily have to? Ohio can get an idea by watching the Robert Morris tape, but it won't do them a ton of good because they rolled in several different lineups and personnel throughout, which won't be the case moving forward.

The only real surprise is that Nicco Marchiol is still not listed by himself as the starter at quarterback. Don't read too much into this. Marchiol will start on Saturday and continue to own that role as long as he operates the offense efficiently. He likely envisions playing multiple guys there, even if it's for a few snaps.
