Coastal Carolina fell to West Virginia 31-24 in Week 1, but there was plenty to like about the Chanticleers' performance.

After WVU jumped out to a 24-0 lead in the first half, Coastal Carolina responded by outscoring the Mountaineers 24-7 after halftime. Quarterback Deuce Bailey had an impressive debut, throwing for 373 yards and 3 touchdowns while completing 57% of his passes with no interceptions.

TJ O'Sullivan & Joe Cashion break down the Week 1 loss and why, despite the final score, this Coastal Carolina team looked significantly different from the teams we've seen struggle in recent years.
