WVU TOUCHDOWN: Simmons 26 pass from Doege (11:32), West Virginia leads, 14-3.
WVU scored touchdowns on its first two possessions and this one came when Doege faked a quick screen and then found Simmons in the end zone.

FOURTH QUARTER
WVU TOUCHDOWN: Simmons 38 pass from Doege (12:01), West Virginia leads, 24-6.
WVU’s special teams came up big with a fumbled punt recovery.
TCU’s Trevon Moehrig couldn’t handle the punt and WVU’s Sean Mahone came up with the recovery at the TCU 42.
