Keith Washington returns an interception 51 yards to seal No. 12 West Virginia's 42-34 win at No. 25 Texas Tech.LUBBOCK, Texas — Keith Washington didn’t make much of a first impression at West Virginia, playing a measly four snaps in the opener against Tennessee.
Awarded his first start Saturday against Texas Tech, he impressed plenty.
Washington’s 51-yard pick-six return in the final 3 minutes foiled the comeback and clinched a 42-34 victory.
“Just did my job,” he said of intercepting Jett Duffey’s pass. “He threw it straight to me and I made a play.”
