The West Virginia Mountaineers ended non-conference play at 2-1. It was a strange journey to get there: they struggled with JMU, got blown-out by the Missouri Tigers and then they bounced back with a strong win over the N.C. State Wolfpack. Just exactly what they achieved against the Wolfpack is quite amazing.
21: The amount of first half points the Mountaineers scored. To this point, this was their season high after they scored only 20 against JMU and a lowly 7 against Missouri. Three touchdown drives all covered at least 75 yards.
