Capers redshirted his initial year at West Virginia, and saw limited time at tight end in 2006.

He then earned the starting job against Mississippi State and kept it the rest of his college career. Overall, he played in all 13 games and started six during his sophomore year. Capers anchored an offensive line that helped pave the way for the Mountaineers offense to produce two 1,000-yard rushers in Steve Slaton and Pat White. He only saw limited action in West Virginia's appearance in the 2008 Fiesta Bowl, due to a sprained ankle.

As a junior in 2008, Capers started all 13 games and saw action in more than 775 plays, including a season high 86 against Cincinnati. He collected 56 knockdowns, including a season high eight knockdowns against Connecticut. During his senior season, Capers was named Second Team All-Big East Conference in a poll by the conference's head coaches.
