W. Virginia 14 - 7 Maryland (12:30 left in 2d Quarter)

We had a noon kickoff, and at noon I was out getting lunch with the rest of the Go Heath family.  By the time I got back, the game had begun with the usual fusillade of points.  West Virginia jumped out to a 14-0 lead with a 51-yard fumble return and a 44-yd pass from Geno Smith to Tavon Austin, and it appeared that the expected rout was underway.  But then Maryland struck back with a 42-yard touchdown pass of its own to make the score 14-7.  Even more surprisingly, Maryland's defense then stopped the Mountaineers, and the Terps are in the midst of another drive.  They are currently facing 3d and 8 on the WVU 12.
