MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- To understand Youngstown State quarterback Ricky Davis motivation to play West Virginia, take a peek at his cell phone.His screensaver counts down the days until the Penguins (1-0) meet the Mountaineers (1-0).Times up. Saturdays game will be Youngstown States annual chance -- and Davis first as a starter -- to upend a Bowl Subdivision opponent.Were picked to lose. So we have nothing to lose, Davis said. This is our Super Bowl game. This is the one that weve had circled on the schedule for a while. And were going to come ready.The Penguins beat Pittsburgh in the 2012 opener, its first win over a major conference school, and almost pulled off a repeat a year ago against the Panthers in coach Bo Pelinis debut.If that doesnt grab your attention right there, then I dont know what will, West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen said.In his first career start last week, Davis was solid with three touchdown passes against Duquesne. But the junior with the long-flowing locks knows its a step up to play the Mountaineers.Im hoping weve got what it takes to match up with those guys, Davis said. Ive very confident that we do.Pelini isnt so sure.You just dont know whats going to happen, how the games going to go, he said. You have to be prepared to go out and win it, no matter what side of it youre on. I dont change my approach, whether were playing West Virginia, the Steelers or a high school team. Its going to be the same.The Mountaineers have never lost to a Championship Subdivision opponent. Holgorsen has said he doesnt like playing FCS schools -- the Youngstown State matchup was set before he became coach in 2011.---Some things to know as the Penguins and Mountaineers prepare for their first meeting since 1938.RED-ZONE WOES: West Virginia beat Missouri 26-11 last week but had to settle for field goals four times inside the Tigers 20-yard-line. The good news from the head coach perspective is we did do a hell of a lot better than they did, which is the main reason why we won, Holgorsen said.HOWARDS HEALTH: West Virginia quarterback Skyler Howard said hes sore but will be ready to start on Saturday after straining his ribs during a run last week. Howard said it was a noncontact injury. Hell need to preserve his health because backups William Crest and Chris Chugunov were unimpressive during brief appearances against Missouri. Crest lost a fumble and Chugunov threw an interception.MORE INJURIES: West Virginia starting left tackle Yodny Cajuste was lost for the season with a torn ACL in his right knee sustained last week. Redshirt freshman Colton McKivitz will start in Cajustes place. Cajuste adds to a growing list of players already gone with knee injuries before the season started, including top returning tackler Dravon Askew-Henry at safety, backup nose tackle Jaleel Fields and top recruit Brendan Ferns at linebacker.BEWARE OF THE CRAWSHELL: West Virginias tandem of Rushel Shell and Justin Crawford was impressive against Missouri but will face a Youngstown State defense that allowed only 34 yards. Shell had 90 yards before missing most of the second half with leg cramps. Crawford, a junior college transfer, had 101 yards. Both ran for a score.RUNNING PENGUINS: Youngstown State also can churn out the yards on the ground, compiled 394 against Duquesne. Starting running back Jody Webb ran for 96, Martin Ruiz had 89 and third-stringer Tevin McCaster had 107 in the fourth quarter. Davis chipped in with 74 yards.I hate when people call me a running quarterback, he said. Im a pocket-passing quarterback that has the ability to run.---AP College Football website www.collegefootball.ap.orgFollow John Raby on Twitter: www.twitter.com/jraby-AP JJ Redick Jersey .

(STATS) -- Eastern Washington is listing All-America wide receiver Cooper Kupp as questionable with a shoulder injury for its FCS Top 10 game against Northern Iowa on Saturday.Kupp, the 2015 STATS FCS Offensive Player of the Year, didnt play in the second half last weekend after being injured in the Big Sky Conference teams 50-44 overtime loss at top-ranked North Dakota State.Hes practiced so much that well obviously be very smart with what happens in practice this week, and then well get a feel closer to game time with where he is with his shoulder and AC joint, coach Beau Baldwin said.Kupp, a 6-foot-2, 215-pound senior, has caught a Division I-record 61 touchdowns in his career. This season, he has 17 receptions for 268 yards and five touchdowns in three halves of action.dddddddddddd.The No. 8 Eagles (1-1) are playing their home opener against a No. 10 UNI squad (1-1) coming off a loss to another Big Sky power, Montana.Injuries have been a major factor for Eastern Washington.
