Instant Recap: West Virginia Wins Wild Shootout In Austin On Late Two Point Conversion

The No. 13 ranked West Virginia Mountaineers (7-1, 5-1 Big 12) are one step closer to a Big 12 Championship Game appearance after knocking off the No. 17 Texas Longhorns (6-3, 4-2 Big 12) in an absolutely wild shootout in Austin, Texas this evening, 41-40.

In a game that saw the lead change hands eight times, it was some late heroics by Will Grier and an incredible set of cajones by Dana Holgorsen to make the call to go for the game-winning two-point conversion with just 16 seconds left on the clock.
