Baylor Goes Mountaineering, Succumbs to a Landslide
Things looked awry from the first drive, where West Virginia sent a WR in motion from the far side of the field, and true freshman safety Christian Morgan was looking to the sideline for a signal, missing the WR as he ran free for a touchdown.
Baylor began its first drive with a play that has been money for them all season: inside zone with an RPO slant to Denzel Mims behind it. Charlie delivered a perfect pass and Mims was unable to hold on as the West Virginia safety delivered a big hit and jarred the ball loose. This killed the drive and Baylor was forced to punt.
Baylor’s defense responded on the next drive, forcing a long field goal.
