The Mountaineers finished the season ranked No. 27 in total offense and No. 39 in scoring offense. It wasn't perfect, but it was good. Can it get better? Of course it can, but does that require changes to the offense? If so, will we see them in 2024? Check out the video above.

Make Liberty Win, a Virginia-based PAC , has been sending text messages and mailers to Wyoming voters, and knocking on doors in support of various legislative candidates, but has failed to provide accurate information.
