MORGANTOWN, W.VA — The West Virginia University football team faces the BYU Cougars in Provo, Utah, for the first time in program history on Friday night. Kickoff is set for 10:30 p.m. on ESPN.
West Virginia Has Arrived
Countdown to Kickoff
There might be a silver lining in last Saturday's 48-14 loss to Utah at Milan Puskar Stadium.
Redshirt freshman quarterback
Khalil Wilkins seemed to get the offense moving a little bit when he was inserted into the game on West Virginia's opening possession of the third quarter.
Wilkins began that drive with a short pass to sophomore
Cam Vaughn, then called his own number for 17 yards to midfield. On fourth and 7, Wilkins scrambled for 10 yards to the Utah 40, and then two plays later, underthrew a pass in the general direction of Vaughn, who made a fabulous play to catch the ball and then get into the end zone for a touchdown.
West Virginia's next possession with Wilkins behind center probably should have been a touchdown, too, when he completed a 28-yard touchdown pass to
Rodney Gallagher III that was nullified by an offensive pass interference penalty on Gallagher.
