Texas 21 - 24 W. Virginia (5:10 left in 2d Quarter)

It is now kill or be killed when WVU has the ball.  UT has plainly decided that their best hope of stopping WVU is to simply charge at Smith on every play.  So each play is a race to see whether the Longhorns can get to Smith before he can do something productive with the ball.  On that possession, Smith did take the Eers down into Texas territory.  But on 3d and 3 from the Texas 9, Desmond Jackson of Westfield H.S. in Houston, TX blasted through for a sack to stop WVU's drive.  So Tyler Bitancurt kicked a 37-yard FG to put the Mountaineers back on top.

This game is being played at a desperate and ferocious pace right now.
