Redshirt sophomore Marcus Tarrer had a career-night with 16 tackles, including nine solo stops. West Virginia State faced an opposite dilemma in its season opener. The Yellow Jackets posted 496 yards of total offense, including 217 on the ground but, allowed 580 yards in a 35-31 loss to the University of Charleston. Calil Wilkins gained 138 yards on 25 carries while posting two rushing touchdowns against the Golden Eagles. Quarterback Austin Hensley passed for 260 yards while completing 22-of-34 pass attempts before the West Virginia University transfer was injured and replaced by Faustino Saucedo. Saucedo, a 6-foot-2 graduate student who started his career at Pace University will be making his first career start for the Yellow Jackets after attempting just one pass in the season opener. An area to watch is the red zone, West Virginia State led all of NCAA Division II by scoring on 47 of 48 trips last fall and begin 2018 by reaching the area five times with three scores in the opener. West Virginia State was susceptible to the big play on defense as Charleston passed for 303 yards on just 10 completions. The Golden Eagles started the game with a 59-yard touchdown pass on the team's opening play from scrimmage, it was one of 12 plays that went for at least 20 yards against the Yellow Jackets. The loser of Saturday's game will face an uphill climb in the Mountain East Conference standings. UVa-Wise will play three of its next four games against schools that won their season opener while West Virginia State has a road tilt at Notre Dame College (who upset Shepherd last week) before returning home to face preseason favorite Shepherd on Sept. 22. The Cavaliers have won back-to-back meetings against the Yellow Jackets and are a perfect 2-0 in Institute while holding a 3-1 all-time lead in the series.
