JAKE ABBOTT 2019 Tommy Nickolich Memorial Award winner as the program’s top walk-on “I know every little boy, in West Virginia, has the same dream, to put on the Old Gold and Blue and have a Flying WV on your chest. It means something different than just that you can play football. I love the game, but I definitely love this state more than I love the game of football. That is what pushes me.”

GRAESON MALASHEVICH 2021 Tommy Nickolich Memorial Award Winner As The Program’s Top Walk-On “Being a walk-on gave me the opportunity I needed. I knew I had to put in a lot of hard work and effort every day to earn the respect of my teammates. There are guys from all over the country coming in who were great, were stars at their high school. I just looked for any way and did anything I could to work hard, compete and earn my way.”

OSMAN KAMARA 2020 Tommy Nickolich Memorial Award winner as the program’s top walk-on “Playing Power 5 football always has been a dream of mine. I am so thankful to have the opportunity to be a WVU Mountaineer, first as a walk-on and then on scholarship. I attacked every day with the goal in mind of one day earning a scholarship – continuing to work hard, keep improving and have the mentality that no one can tell the difference between me and a scholarship player on or off the field.”

NAJEE GOODE Member of 2018 Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles “When I first walked on, I was just trying to get to the next level. For me, that next level was getting a scholarship and playing hard. After I got there, the next level was to become a consistent starter and a good leader. Once I did that, it was keep improving and maybe have the possibility of playing in the NFL. It was a long shot. I was hoping and praying for it, and I just kept working hard. Now that it’s here, I still can’t believe it.”

going first is in our blood.

It’s in our sweat and it’s in our nature. So we will go above. We will go beyond. and when everyone goes back,

HEAD COACH

NEAL

BROWN [

]

Neal Brown is in his third year as the head coach at West Virginia. Since arriving in Morgantown in January 2019, Brown has covered a lot of territory representing Mountaineer Football as its chief ambassador, ensuring the great story about his program is told to everyone. One of the first player initiatives that Brown implemented for the team was the 5th Quarter program in 2019, officially announcing it in 2020, to assist in the development of the total player, not only on the field, but off and for life beyond graduation. The pillars of the program are character development, leadership development, real life, social responsibility and career development. With the name, image and likeness legislation enacted in July 2021, Brown did his due diligence in advance to ensure that his players were prepared, no matter how involved the process becomes in the future. Another component of the 5th Quarter program is the Bridge program. Its goal is to introduce the studentathletes to the college experience when they first enter WVU and give them their final training and prepare them before they embark into life after graduation. Brown has supported and championed program leadership by the players and above all a dedication to the individual student-athlete. His mission has been to develop each player as a complete person, not only on the field, but off, and for each to continuously build themselves and their brand to make a difference in the world after their football career is finished. In September 2020, Brown was named the honorary head coach for the AFCA AllState Good Works Team, honoring him for his commitment to leadership, the Morgantown community and Mountaineer Nation as a whole. In January, he was named to the AFCA’s Board of Trustees.

WE WANT TO POSITION OUR PLAYERS FOR

The 2020 season was Brown’s most challenging season to date, testing his ability, not only as a coach, but as a leader. He was forced to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic since mid-March, which didn’t allow for spring practice or offseason workouts and skill instruction, while social unrest was at a high level nationally during the summer. Even though the program constantly was forced to deal with the effects and protocols of COVID-19 during the season, the Mountaineers stayed the course, finishing the season 6-4 overall and 4-4 in the Big 12. Brown made his first bowl appearance as the coach of West Virginia against Army in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl, winning the game, 24-21. Five players earned All-America honors, led by Darius Stills, who was the school’s first Consensus AllAmerican since 2006 and 12th in school history. Tony Fields II, Tykee Smith and Dante Stills were named to at least one All-America team and freshmen Zach Frazier and Akheem Mesidor were named to Freshman All-America teams. In April, Fields was drafted by the Cleveland Browns to extend WVU’s string of consecutive years of having at least one player selected in the NFL Draft since 2008, while five players signed free agent contracts.

Eight players were named to the All-Big 12 Conference postseason teams, led by first-team honorees, Fields II, also defensive newcomer of the year, Darius Stills, also defensive lineman of the year, and Leddie Brown, first-team running back. The Mountaineers finished the 2019 season with a 5-7 mark, in what was called a transitional year. WVU finished the regular season winning two of the final three games, at Kansas State and at TCU, and had a 3-3 mark on the road, including a 3-2 road record in the Big 12 Conference. Five of Brown’s players were named to All-Big 12 postseason teams, and Colton McKivitz was named the Big 12’s Co-Offensive Lineman of the Year. McKivitz earned spots on two All-America teams - Walter Camp Football Foundation’s Second Team and the Associated Press’ Third Team, and Tykee Smith was named a freshman All-American by the Football Writers Association of America. McKivitz played in the Reese’s Senior Bowl and was selected in the fifth-round of the NFL Draft by the San Francisco 49ers. Brown, one of six FBS coaches to win 10 or more games in 2016, 2017 and 2018, was named WVU’s 35th head football coach on Jan. 5, 2019. He spent the previous four years as the head coach at Troy University (2015-18), compiling a 35-16 record, including 3-0 in bowl games. In his final three seasons, the Trojans posted a 31-8 record (.795), tying for the highest winning percentage nationally among non-Power 5 schools. Before Brown left after the 2018 season, Troy had won 17 of its last 20 games and 22 of its last 26 games. After directing the Trojans to the 2017 Sun Belt Conference Championship, Brown was honored as the league’s coach of the year. During his highly successful tenure at Troy, Brown’s signature wins included a 24-21 victory in 2017 at then-No. 22 ranked LSU in Baton Rouge, which snapped the Tigers’ 49-game non-conference home winning streak and a 24-19 win at Nebraska on Sept. 15, 2018. Also impressive was his team’s narrow 30-24 loss at eventual 2016 national champion Clemson. In 2018, Troy finished 10-3, including a victory over Buffalo in the Dollar General Bowl in Mobile, Alabama. The Trojans finished 7-1 in conference play and won five of their last six games. The 2017 campaign featured an 11-win season for Troy, including a win over North Texas in the New Orleans Bowl. The Trojans once again finished with a 7-1 conference mark, earning Brown his first conference championship. Troy finished the season with the 27th most votes in the final Amway Coaches Poll, marking the highest final ranking by a Sun Belt Conference squad in league history. Troy faced seven bowl teams and posted a 6-1 mark in those games. Additionally, the Trojans played three conference or conference division champions – Boise State (Mountain West), Akron (MAC/East) and North Texas (C-USA West). Troy finished 10-3 in 2016, including a 6-2 mark in the Sun Belt and a victory over Ohio University in the Dollar General Bowl. The Trojans became the first Sun Belt Conference school to ever open a season with eight wins in its first nine games, and they became the first league school to appear in a major top 25 poll, checking in at No. 25 in the Associated Press’ Nov. 13 poll. Additionally, Brown’s 2016 squad tied for the best turnaround in the country (6 wins). Prior to Brown’s first season at Troy in 2015, he spent two years (201314) as the offensive coordinator under Mark Stoops at Kentucky. Under his direction, he led the Wildcats to some new heights on the offensive side of the football. The Wildcats posted more than 440 yards of total offense in three Southeastern Conference games in 2014, its highest total since 2001. The Wildcats totaled 380 yards or more of total offense in their first three SEC games in 2014 – Florida, Arkansas and South Carolina – marking the first time a UK team had done so since 1998. Kentucky scored 21 offensive touchdowns in SEC play in 2014. The two years prior to Brown being named offensive coordinator, Kentucky had a combined 21 offensive touchdowns in SEC play.

He also spent three years at Texas Tech (201012) as the offensive coordinator after his first stint at Troy as an assistant coach from 2006-09. As Texas Tech’s offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach, the Red Raiders ranked in the nation’s top-seven teams in passing offense, top 15 in total offense and top 25 in scoring offense, having increased production in all three categories each year since 2010. TTU finished the 2012 season second nationally in passing with 355.9 yards per game, 13th in total offense at 495.4 yards per game and 20th in scoring with 37.5 points per game. The 2012 campaign was an expansion of the success from 2011, when Texas Tech ranked 13th nationally in total offense at 470.6 yards per game. The Red Raiders lit the scoreboard at a tune of 33.8 points per contest. In his first season in Lubbock, Brown’s offense notched 460.2 yards of total offense per game, 318.9 passing, and scored at a 33.1-point clip as Tech went 8-5 and won the TicketCity Bowl. At Troy, Brown was the inside receivers coach the first two years (2006-07) with the Trojans before transitioning to offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach in 2008-09. Troy won four Sun Belt Conference titles and appeared in three bowl games during Brown’s initial tenure. He began his coaching career with one-year stints at UMass (2003), Sacred Heart (2004) and Delaware (2005). At Delaware, Brown served as wide receivers coach, starting three freshman wideouts as the Blue Hens went 6-5. In 2004, Brown coached the quarterbacks and wide receivers at Sacred Heart, boasting the top- ranked scoring offense in the conference. In 2003, he was the tight ends coach and offensive line assistant at Massachusetts, helping the Minutemen win a share of the Atlantic-10 championship and a berth in the FCS playoffs. Brown was a wide receiver at Kentucky for three years (1998-2000) before finishing his career at UMass in 2001-02. He was a member of two bowl teams with the Wildcats and was named to the Southeastern Conference Academic Honor Roll. While at UMass, he was an Atlantic 10 AllAcademic honoree and an NCAA Division I-AA Athletic Directors’ Academic All-Star team selection. Brown graduated from UMass with a bachelor’s degree in business management in 2002 and earned his master’s degree in business administration in 2005. Born in Louisville, Kentucky, Brown grew up in Bardstown, Kentucky, before moving to Danville, Kentucky, where he was an all-state wide receiver at Boyle County High School, finishing his career as the No. 2 receiver in state history. Brown, and his wife, Brooke, have two daughters, Adalyn and Anslee, and a son, Dax. THE BROWN FAMILY: Adalyn, Dax, Neal, Brooke and Anslee

While at Middle Tennessee, the Blue Raider offensive line ranked No. 2 nationally in fewest sacks allowed, and Moore was nominated for the Broyles Award, given to the top assistant coach in the nation. His Texas Tech offensive line paved the way for the Red Raiders to score 28 rushing touchdowns in 2008, second most in school history.

West Virginia’s first game of the 2020 football season produced win No. 1 one as the Mountaineers downed Eastern Kentucky, 56-10. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, only player and staff families were permitted at the game, as the Mountaineers got the season started in front of 976 fans at Milan Puskar Stadium. The Mountaineers wasted little time getting on the scoreboard as running back Leddie Brown started the scoring for the season with a 10-yard run to cap an 82-yard opening drive. West Virginia added another score in the quarter, when Brown hauled in a 15-yard pass from Jarret Doege, putting the score at 14-0 heading into the second quarter. West Virginia extended its lead to 21-0 with 12:59 left in the half as receiver Sam James was the target of a 32-yard scoring strike from Doege. EKU stopped the Mountaineer scoring blitz at the 10:49 mark, when quarterback Parker McKinney completed a 28-yard touchdown pass to Keyion Dixon to end a 75-yard drive for the Colonels. However, WVU would close the half with three touchdown drives, giving the Mountaineers a commanding 42-7 advantage at the half. Running back Alec Sinkfield scored on an 8-yard run that ended a 75-yard drive at the 8:22 mark. Brown entered the scoring column again with 2:33 left in the half with an 8-yard run of his own, before receiver Bryce Ford-Wheaton closed the scoring with an 8-yard reception from Doege. Halftime stats showed that WVU totaled 398 yards of offense in the opening two quarters.

Eastern Kentucky started the second-half scoring on a seven-play, 60-yard drive that ended with a 32-yard field goal from kicker Alexander Woznick. The Mountaineers then added to their totals in the third with a 75yard scoring drive, capped by a 17-yard dash from Sinkfield at the 8:07 mark. The score stayed at 49-10 for the remainder of the quarter and into the fourth until WVU closed the scoring with 2:00 left in the game. A 16-play, 96-yard drive, conducted by true freshman quarterback Garrett Greene, ended with a 3-yard run from running back Tony Mathis Jr., putting the final score at 56-10. West Virginia used more than 70 players in the game as many younger players saw action for the first time. Brown and Sinkfield each finished with 123 yards rushing and two touchdowns. Doege was super accurate, completing 76% of his passes and three touchdowns. James led the receivers with 72 yards on five catches, while the defense was led by newcomers Tony Fields II and Alonzo Addae, who combined for 17 tackles. EKU was led by Alonzo Booth with 45 yards rushing, while McKinney passed for 131 yards and one score. Dixon parlayed his touchdown catch into a team-leading 53 yards receiving, and Kaleb Lundy topped the tacklers with nine. Final numbers showed West Virginia with 329 yards rushing and 295 passing for 624 yards of total offense. The Colonels finished with 75 yards on the ground and 131 passing for 206 total yards. The win improved West Virginia’s all-time record in home openers to 100-20-6 and gave coach Neal Brown a 2-0 mark in those games. The Mountaineers are now 21-0 against schools that play in the FCS and have won 17 straight nonconference games at home.

West Virginia’s Big 12 Conference opener at Oklahoma State didn’t go as planned, as the No. 15/18 Cowboys came away with a 27-13 victory at Boone Pickens Stadium. Oklahoma State used big plays in the form of a 66-yard touchdown run and a 56yard fumble recovery for a score to build an advantage that the Mountaineers could not overcome. Mixed with 12 WVU penalties for 106 yards, the recipe was not a winning one for the visitors. After a scoreless first quarter, the Cowboys started the scoring when running back LD Brown broke loose for a 66-yard touchdown run, giving OSU a 7-0 lead at the 13:43 mark. Brown’s run came on the third play of the drive, which ended at 76 yards. The Cowboys increased their lead to 14-0, when Tyren Irby picked up a Jarret Doege fumble and returned it 56 yards for the game’s second score and OSU’s second explosive play in the game. Oklahoma State kicker Alex Hale added a 40-yard field goal with 5:02 left in the second quarter to extend OSU’s advantage to 17-0 before West Virginia added an explosive play of its own. Doege connected with receiver Winston Wright Jr. for a 70-yard scoring play, putting the Mountaineers on the board and cutting Oklahoma State’s lead to 17-7 with 3:48 left before halftime. The West Virginia defense was unable to get off the field except for the final three seconds of the quarter, which allowed the Cowboys to eat clock and add a 44-yard field goal from Hale, extending their lead to 20-7 at the intermission. The combined 27 points from both teams all occurred in the second quarter.

West Virginia came away with the only points in the third quarter, when kicker Evan Staley connected on a 26-yard field goal. The points were set up by a Tony Fields II interception and 22-yard return into Cowboy territory. The Mountaineers certainly had their chances in the fourth quarter but could only score a 30-yard Staley field goal. For much of the game, WVU moved the ball on OSU, but could not finish the drives with touchdowns. Staley’s second successful kick in the game ended an 11-play, 57-yard drive. Just like the first half, the Mountaineer defense did everything it could to get the offense back on the field, but OSU went on a 7:39 drive that ended with a 23-yard Chuba Hubbard touchdown run to put the game out of reach and give Oklahoma State its sixth straight victory in the series. Doege finished with 285 yards passing and one score. For the second straight game, running back Leddie Brown went over the 100-yard rushing mark with 104 yards on 26 carries. Wright Jr. led the WVU receivers with 127 receiving yards, and Alonzo Addae and Fields II had nine tackles each. OSU put two running backs over the century mark with Brown’s 103 yards and Hubbard’s 101. Quarterback Shane Illingworth passed for 139 yards with 78 of them going to receiver Tylan Wallace. Amen Ogbongbemiga topped all tacklers with 13 stops and one sack. WVU finished with 68 yards rushing and 285 passing for 353 total yards. OSU came in at 203 on the ground and 139 through the air for 342 yards of total offense.

West Virginia captured its first Big 12 Conference win of the 2020 season with a 2721, double-overtime victory over Baylor. The defensive battle provided a back-andforth chess match between the two defenses. West Virginia’s offense looked great on its opening drive, which was set up by a 29-yard kickoff return from Winston Wright Jr. The Mountaineers marched 70 yards in 15 plays for a 7-0 lead, and the 6:09 drive was capped by quarterback Jarret Doege’s 1-yard run. While the drive was impressive, the problem for the Mountaineers was that they would not find the end zone again until late in the third quarter. Until then, West Virginia had to fight off three turnovers in the first half, as the defense snuffed out two of the three Baylor scoring opportunities off Mountaineer miscues. However, the Bears tied the game with 6:40 left in the first half, when quarterback Charlie Brewer completed a 7-yard touchdown pass to R.J. Sneed. The scoring drive was set up after Doege threw his second interception of the half, and the five-play, 30-yard drive sent both teams into the locker room tied at 7-7. The Mountaineers regained the lead at 14-7 behind running back Leddie Brown’s 1-yard run to end a 72-yard drive. Much like the opening drive, the WVU offense was impressive, running the ball eight times in the 11-play drive, highlighted by a 25-yard run from Alec Sinkfield. WVU used a goal-line stand in the fourth quarter to keep Baylor off the board, but the Bears tied the game with just 1:13 left to play on Brewer’s 34-yard touchdown pass to Josh Fleeks.

[

In overtime, the Mountaineers converted a key fourth-and-1 with a 10-yard pass to tight end Mike O’Laughlin, setting up Doege’s 6-yard touchdown pass to receiver Bryce FordWheaton. The lead was short-lived, as Baylor tied the score on its first play to send the game into a second overtime. Brewer went straight to the air on the first play and found Ben Sims for a 25-yard scoring reception. In the second overtime, Baylor went back to the air on its first play, but this time Brewer was intercepted by WVU’s Tykee Smith, giving the Mountaineer offense the chance to win the game. West Virginia didn’t need a field goal, as four plays into the drive, Brown scored his second rushing touchdown with a 3-yard run, securing the Mountaineer victory. West Virginia was able to overcome four turnovers and was led by Doege with 211 yards passing and Brown’s 93 yards rushing. Receiver Sam James hauled in eight passes, while Tony Fields II recorded 10 tackles, two TFLs and one sack. Tackle Darius Stills earned national defensive player of the week honors for his 2.5 sacks and 3.5 TFLs. Baylor got for 229 yards passing from Brewer and three touchdowns, while the defensive effort was led by Terrel Bernard with 13 tackles and Jalen Pitre with 11 stops, two TFLs and one forced fumble. The Mountaineer defense was outstanding against the run, holding the Bears to just 27 yards rushing on 33 attempts. Baylor added 229 yards passing to total 256 yards of offense. West Virginia finished with 134 yards on the ground and 211 through the air for 345 yards of total offense. With the win, West Virginia improved to 6-3 all-time against Baylor.

West Virginia welcomed fans to Milan Puskar Stadium for the first time in the 2020 season and came away with a 38-17 victory over the Kansas Jayhawks. Behind 195 yards rushing from running back Leddie Brown and 318 yards passing from quarterback Jarret Doege, the Mountaineers erased a 10-point first quarter deficit to record victory No. 3 on the season. Playing without head coach Les Miles, who stayed back in Lawrence after testing positive for COVID-19, the Jayhawks took advantage of an early Mountaineer fumble to grab a 3-0 lead on Jacob Borcila’s 41-yard field goal. Kansas extended its lead to 10-0 on its next possession, when quarterback Miles Kendrick connected with receiver Andrew Parchment for a 43-yard touchdown reception. However, West Virginia didn’t panic and kept its composure, chipping away at the deficit before the end of the quarter. Doege connected with Bryce Ford-Wheaton for a 33yard touchdown pass that brought WVU to within 10-7, heading into the second quarter. Second-quarter scoring was all West Virginia as its offense started to get into rhythm and its defense was asserting itself against the Jayhawks. Brown put the Mountaineers up 14-10 on his 6-yard reception that ended a 91-yard drive. With 16 seconds left before halftime, kicker Evan Staley booted a 33-yard field goal, giving West Virginia a 17-10 advantage. The third quarter saw the Mountaineers put seven more points on the board, when Brown broke loose on third-and-1 for an

electrifying, 87-yard touchdown run. It was the longest touchdown run by a Mountaineer since 2009 and seventh-longest in school history. Brown’s run was the finishing touch on a 96-yard drive, giving WVU two 90-yard-plus scoring drives in the game. Taking a 24-10 lead into the fourth quarter, West Virginia scored 14 points in the final 15 minutes to put the game away. Receiver Sam James scored at the 14:55 mark, when he caught an 8-yard touchdown reception. Tailback Alec Sinkfield closed out West Virginia’s scoring with 2:00 left in the game on a 8-yard reception. The visitors closed the game with a 92-yard kickoff return for a touchdown by Pooka Williams. The Kansas score came on the ensuing kickoff after Sinkfield’s touchdown. While Brown and Doege led the offense, the Mountaineer defense had quite a day, recording five sacks (Akheem Mesidor 2, Jeffery Pooler Jr. 2, Jared Bartlett 1) and 11 TFLs. Linebacker Josh Chadler-Semedo led the way with nine tackles, while defensive back Tykee Smith added eight. Showing how strong the Mountaineer defense was on the day, Kansas was held to 62 yards rushing and 95 passing to finish with 157 yards of total offense. The Jayhawks were limited to just seven first downs in the contest. The Mountaineers finished with 226 yards rushing and 318 passing for 544 yards of total offense. With the win, West Virginia now has won seven in a row against the Jayhawks, and the Mountaineers now lead the all-time series 9-1, including an 8-1 mark in all-time Big 12 play.

Texas Tech capitalized on a fourth-quarter fumble, returning it for a touchdown, and held on to defeat West Virginia, 34-27, at Jones AT&T Stadium. West Virginia never led in the game and played catch-up the entire way. A serious fourth-quarter threat by WVU to take the lead for the first time ended when receiver Sam James fumbled and Tech’s Zech McPhearson raced 56 yards for the winning score. The Red Raiders got on the board early in the first quarter on a 1-yard touchdown run by quarterback Henry Colombi, ending a 69-yard drive at the 9:29 mark. West Virginia answered on its next possession behind big passing plays from quarterback Jarret Doege to James and tight end Mike O’Laughlin. The catches set up a 3-yard touchdown run from tailback Leddie Brown. Tech grabbed the lead again by the end of the first quarter, when running back SaRodorick Thompson broke loose for a 48-yard touchdown run, but Tech missed the PAT. Trailing 13-7, West Virginia closed the gap to 13-10 at the 9:00 mark of the second quarter on Evan Staley’s 41-yard field goal. Staley would come back later in the second quarter with his longest field goal of the season, 45 yards, as the first half expired. The kick put the halftime score at 20-13, because Texas Tech added an 11-yard touchdown pass from Colombi to Trey Cleveland between the two Staley kicks. The Mountaineers outscored the Red Raiders in the third quarter by a 14-7 count to even the game at 27-27 heading to the fourth.

West Virginia’s two scores came on a 2-yard pass play from Doege to tight end T.J. Banks, which came after Tech’s fumble on the opening possession of the second half. Brown scored the other points for WVU in the quarter on a 1-yard run, giving him two touchdowns in the contest. The Red Raiders also found the end zone when Tahj Brooks rambled in from 5 yards out to end a 73-yard drive. With the game tied at 27-27 in the fourth, Texas Tech’s fumble recovery and 56-yard touchdown return by McPhearson was the difference. The Mountaineers had two possessions afterward but could not come away with the tying touchdown. Mountaineer receiver Winston Wright Jr. turned in a big night with nine catches for 126 yards. Wright’s long catch went for 38 yards. Doege finished with 347 yards passing and one touchdown, while Brown led the ground game with 77 yards. Linebacker Josh Chandler-Semedo topped all defensive efforts with 11 tackles. Tech got 68 yards rushing from Thompson, 169 yards passing from Colombi and 79 yards receiving from Myles Price to lead its offensive effort. On the defensive side, Colin Schooler, Riko Jeffers and Krishon Merriweather all contributed nine tackles in the victory. WVU finished with 91 yards rushing, 347 passing and 438 yards of total offense. Texas Tech managed 179 yards on the ground, 169 through the air for 348 total yards. Despite having 100 yards more in the total offense stat, WVU lost the battle on the scoreboard. With the win, Texas Tech has now won two straight over WVU, but the Mountaineers still lead the all-time series by a 6-4 count.

West Virginia played one of its strongest games of the season in upsetting No. 16/16 Kansas State, 37-10, at Milan Puskar Stadium. Coach Neal Brown thought his team played well in all three phases of the game in defeating a nationally ranked Wildcat team. In fact, it was the second quarter that saw the Mountaineers put together three straight touchdown drives and perhaps play their best football of the season. The Wildcats started the scoring at the 8:33 mark of the first quarter, when kicker Blake Lynch connected on a 21-yard field goal. The key for West Virginia was its defense holding Kansas State out of the end zone on three tries from the 2-yard line. The Mountaineers followed with a 16-play drive that took 5:31 off the clock. When the Wildcat defense held, Evan Staley’s 19-yard field goal tied the game heading into the second quarter. West Virginia then took command of the contest, outscoring Kansas State, 21-7, in the second quarter. A 58-yard pass completion from quarterback Jarret Doege to receiver Bryce Ford-Wheaton set up a 5-yard scoring pass to Ali Jennings for a 10-7 West Virginia advantage. Tailback Leddie Brown then added a 9-yard touchdown run on WVU’s next drive to increase the margin to 17-3 with 8:31 left in the half. West Virginia scored its third straight touchdown with 3:38 left on the clock as Doege connected with Winston Wright Jr. for a 15-yard reception and a 24-3 advantage. Kansas State went to the air to add a 35-yard scoring toss from freshman quarterback Will Howard to Malik Knowles to cut its deficit to 24-10 at the half.

But any chance K-State had of a comeback ended with the final two quarters, as a stingy West Virginia defense never let the Wildcats score again. The Mountaineers outscored K-State 13-0 in the second half to claim the important Big 12 victory. Third-quarter action saw West Virginia add 10 points to its total with three coming on a 25-yard field goal by backup kicker Casey Legg. Kicking for the injured Staley, Legg’s field goal ended a 5:44 drive as WVU ate time off the clock. The lone touchdown in the quarter came when redshirt senior linebacker Dylan Tonkery intercepted Howard and returned it 18 yards for a defensive score. While the Mountaineer defense continued to dominate in the fourth quarter, the offense closed the scoring with 10:35 remaining on Legg’s 45-yard field goal, ending a 4:42, clock-eating drive. Doege passed for over 300 yards for the third straight game and finished with two touchdown passes. Brown turned in his fourth 100-yard rushing performance of the season, while Ford-Wheaton hauled in 104 yards receiving. Linebacker Tony Fields II dominated and led all tackers with 15 stops. For Kansas State, Howard finished with 184 yards passing, while Justin Hughes led the Wildcat defense with nine tackles. West Virginia rushed for 184 yards and passed for 301 to total 485 yards of offense. Kansas State was held to just 41 yards rushing and 184 through the air for 225 total yards. After losing four straight Big 12 games to Kansas State, West Virginia has bounced back with five straight wins in the series.

Texas won a defensive battle as the Longhorns defeated West Virginia, 17-13, at DKR - Texas Memorial Stadium. The Longhorns turned away two WVU scoring opportunities in the fourth quarter to earn the victory. Both drives went deep into Texas territory with the Longhorns holding on fourth down. The day started strong for Texas as running back Bijan Robinson broke loose for a 54-yard rush on the game’s first play from scrimmage. The run led to a 7-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Sam Ehlinger to Brennan Eagles just seven plays into the game to end a 75-yard drive. However, the Mountaineers countered the momentum with a 75-yard drive and tied the game at the 8:52 mark of the first quarter on tailback Leddie Brown’s 12-yard run. The score was set up by a 38yard pass from quarterback Jarret Doege to receiver Winston Wright Jr. The game remained tied at 7-7 heading into the second quarter before Texas took a 10-7 advantage on Cameron Dicker’s 34yard field goal. The successful kick ended a 10-play, 74-yard drive, and the three-point lead remained at the half as Dicker missed on a 48-yard attempt at the end of the quarter. Halftime stats were a signal of things to come in the second half. While the game was close in most statistical categories, Texas had accumulated 123 yards rushing compared to 21 for West Virginia. The Longhorns were determined to stop the run and were successful in their efforts. On the first possession of the second half, West Virginia used 4:49 of the clock to tie the game on a 25-yard field goal by kicker Casey Legg. Of the 66 yards in the scoring drive, 50 came via the pass.

The Longhorns regained the lead for good with 7:31 left in the third, when Ehlinger connected with receiver Jake Smith on a 33-yard touchdown strike for a 17-10 lead. West Virginia countered before the quarter ended, but only with three points to answer the Texas touchdown. A 34-yard Legg field goal enabled the Longhorns to carry a 17-13 advantage into the fourth quarter. Neither team scored in the final frame, but West Virginia twice knocked on the door. The Mountaineers used a 29-yard completion to receiver T.J. Simmons to get to the Texas 16-yard line, but Doege’s fourth-down pass to tight end Mike O’Laughlin was incomplete. On their next drive, the Mountaineers reached the Texas 8-yard line behind the strength of another 29-yard completion to Simmons. But the Texas defense held once again as Doege’s fourth-down attempt to receiver Ali Jennings was broken up at the goal line. With the running game stagnant, Doege passed for 317 yards, giving him four straight games of more than 300 yards. Tony Fields II led the defensive effort with 12 tackles and one TFL. Texas got 113 yards rushing from Robinson and 184 yards passing from Ehlinger to lead its offense. On defense, Juwan Mitchell turned in nine tackles. Final numbers showed West Virginia with 43 yards rushing and 317 passing for 360 yards of total offense. Texas finished with 179 yards on the ground and 184 through the air for 363 total yards. Three more yards of offense, and four more points was how close the game was as Texas tied the all-time series with WVU at 5-5.

West Virginia remained unbeaten at home after five games with an impressive, 24-6 victory over TCU. The Mountaineers put together a strong effort in all three phases to defeat the Horned Frogs. The offense scored points when needed and used big plays to find the end zone. The defense held the Horned Frogs without a touchdown, while WVU’s special teams contained TCU’s potent punt and kick return game. One got the feeling it was going to be a good day for the Mountaineers, when they took their opening possession in the game 99 yards for a 7-0 advantage. Pinned back at their own 1-yard line, the Mountaineer offense took 7:38 off the clock and used 15 plays to account for the game’s first score, when quarterback Jarret Doege rushed in from the TCU 1-yard line. The margin held until the 14:01 mark of the second quarter, when TCU kicker Griffin Kell converted on a 32-yard field goal attempt. The drive was kept alive by a roughing the punter penalty by WVU. The Mountaineers answered the field goal on their next drive. Using a 30-yard run from tailback Leddie Brown to propel the drive, Doege connected with receiver T.J. Simmons for a 26-yard touchdown reception and a 14-3 WVU advantage at the half. Third-quarter action saw both teams trade field goals. A 34-yard run by Brown set up kicker Casey Legg for a 42-yard field goal. TCU used 10 plays with five going for plus 10 yards to set up Kell for his second field goal on the day. The 32-yarder by the Horned Frog kicker put the score at 17-6 in favor of WVU with 4:41 left in the third quarter.

West Virginia closed the scoring and put the game out of reach with 11:56 left in the game. The Mountaineers took advantage of a TCU muffed punt to add Doege’s second touchdown pass to Simmons. The 38-yard scoring toss put the Mountaineers up 24-6. The West Virginia defense kept the Horned Frogs out of the end zone late in the game, when defensive back Tykee Smith intercepted TCU quarterback Max Duggan at the WVU 1-yard line and returned it 42 yards to keep the visitors out of the end zone. West Virginia got a strong rushing day from Brown, who finished with 156 yards on 24 carries and averaged 6.5 yards per touch with runs of 30, 18, 34 and 31 yards. Doege completed 19-of-26 passes for 212 yards and two touchdowns, while Simmons was the recipient of those scoring throws and finished with 90 yards receiving. Linebackers Tony Fields II and Exree Loe combined for 26 tackles to lead the winning defensive effort. For TCU, Duggan finished with 161 yards passing, while Kendre Miller paced the running game with 58 yards. Emari Demercado caught four passes for 66 yards, while Trevon Moehrig and Garret Wallow had 10 tackles each. Final numbers showed West Virginia with 180 yards rushing and 212 passing for a solid 392 yards of offense. TCU came in at 134 yards on the ground and 161 through the air for 295 total yards. The win gave West Virginia three in a row in the series against TCU, and the Mountaineers now lead the all-time series by a 6-4 count, including a 3-2 mark in Morgantown.

West Virginia ran into an Iowa State team playing its best football of the season as the Cyclones totally dominated the Mountaineers, 42-6, at Jack Trice Stadium. West Virginia had won three times previously in Ames, but the last two meetings there have gone the Cyclones’ way. Iowa State started the scoring early in the first quarter and never looked back behind the leadership of quarterback Brock Purdy and running back Breece Hall. In fact, it was Hall who got the day started on the positive side for the Cyclones with his 23-yard run that ended an 80-yard drive and gave Iowa State a 7-0 lead. In the second quarter, the Cyclones added two more touchdowns to take a 21-0 advantage into the locker room at the half. Purdy got in on the action at the 14:17 mark with a 10-yard touchdown run for a 14-0 ISU advantage. Purdy struck again with 2:49 left in the first half, when he connected with Landen Akers for a 2-yard scoring toss to end a 76-yard drive. Halftime stats showed Iowa State with 109 rushing yards compared to just 13 for the Mountaineers, while total offense stood at 236-101 in favor of the home team. The second half was not much better for West Virginia, as the Mountaineers continued to lack a running game, and dropped passes at key times continued to stall the offense. Meanwhile, Iowa State found the end zone two more times in the third quarter to open up a commanding 35-0 margin.

[

Tight end Charlie Kolar caught a 16-yard scoring pass one handed from Purdy while being interfered with by WVU’s Alonzo Addae. With just seven seconds left in the third, backup running back Kene Nwangwu broke loose for a 47-yard run through the middle of the WVU defense for ISU’s second score in the quarter. Fourth-quarter action saw West Virginia finally get on the board with two Tyler Sumpter field goals. Sumpter’s 32-yard field goal came at the 12:00 mark and ended a 67-yard drive, while his 36-yard field closed the scoring with 4:14 left in the contest. In between, Iowa State scored its sixth touchdown of the game, when Hall broke loose for a 28-yard run at the 7:00 mark. Purdy was outstanding, completing 20-of23 passes for 247 yards and three touchdowns. Hall gained 97 yards on the ground, while Nwangwu added 77 yards. Xavier Hutchison was Purdy’s favorite target, hauling in eight catches for 89 yards. The Cyclone defense was stingy all game, collecting three sacks and eight tackles for loss. Leading the way was linebacker Jake Hummel with eight stops. West Virginia got 209 yards passing from Doege with receiver Sean Ryan responsible for 79 yards on five catches. Tony Fields II once again led all Mountaineer tacklers with nine stops and a TFL. Final numbers showed West Virginia with 54 yards rushing and 209 passing for 263 yards of offense. Iowa State fared better with 236 yards on the ground and 247 passing for a balanced attack of 483 yards of offense. Iowa State has now won three straight in the series, but still trails WVU by a 5-4 count.

West Virginia rallied from an 11-point, third-quarter deficit, scoring 14 unanswered points to defeat Army 24-21 in the 62nd Annual AutoZone Liberty Bowl. Backup quarterback Austin Kendall replaced starter Jarret Doege in the second half and threw for 121 yards and two touchdowns to lead the comeback. West Virginia was originally supposed to play Tennessee in the game, but the Volunteers had COVID-19 issues and were replaced by a 9-2 Army squad that presented many problems with its tripleoption offense. However, the Mountaineer defense proved to be up to the challenge in one of the more entertaining games of the bowl season played during the pandemic. Army’s offense controls the ball and gives its opponents few possessions, so it was important for WVU to make every chance count. The Mountaineers started the scoring with 1:47 left in the first quarter on a 31-yard Tyler Sumpter field goal. The Black Knights answered with 9:31 remaining in the second quarter on Tyhier Tyler’s 1-yard run for a 7-3 Army advantage. The Mountaineers regained the lead at the 4:21 mark, when receiver T.J. Simmons hauled in a 5-yard scoring toss from Doege for a 10-7 advantage. After another strong defensive stand, West Virginia’s next offensive possession changed the game in a negative way for the Mountaineers, who found themselves playing catch-up the rest of the way. Late in the first half, Doege was sacked for a loss of 14 yards and fumbled, giving Army possession at the WVU 7-yard line. Two plays later, Tyler rushed in from 6 yards out for a 14-10 Army lead at the half along with the first possession of the third quarter.

[

]

The Black Knights took full advantage and pounced once again with a 75-yard, eight-minute drive capped by Tyler’s third touchdown in the game and a 21-10 Army lead. Only 6:55 remained in the third quarter before West Virginia got its first second-half possession. Kendall made the most of it with pass completions of 27 and 31 yards. The 80-yard drive ended with a 3-yard scoring pass to Mike O’Laughlin, cutting the WVU deficit to 21-16 heading to the fourth. The West Virginia defense continued to put in a stellar performance against the triple option and held the Black Knights at bay until Kendall could put together another scoring drive. The go-ahead drive culminated with 5:10 left in the game, when Kendall connected with Simmons on a 20-yard pass play. WVU’s two-point conversion was successful, and the Mountaineers clawed back to a 24-21 lead. A missed Army 39-yard field goal and yet another WVU defensive stop closed the game and broke West Virginia’s three-game bowl losing streak. Final numbers showed West Virginia with 42 yards rushing and 280 passing for 322 yards of offense. Army totaled 182 yards on the ground and 57 through the air for 239 total yards. With his two touchdown receptions, Simmons was named WVU’s offensive MVP and the game’s overall MVP, while linebacker Josh Chandler-Semedo took defensive MVP honors with 13 tackles, 1 TFL and an interception on the final drive to seal the game. With the win, West Virginia improved to 16-22 all-time in bowl games.

SHANE LYONS There’s a reason Shane Lyons was named NACDA Athletics Director of the Year in 2021, it’s because he spends endless hours daily for the betterment of more than 500 student-athletes and their day-to-day needs in order to help them succeed in the classroom and in competition. His open lines of communications have made him a popular role model for WVU student-athletes and coaches. His honest, fair and caring approach has led to success on and off the field. Whether it’s regularly scheduled meetings with the student-athletes or his open-door office policy, Lyons has his finger on the pulse of his department. In the past year, his success and work ethic has brought national exposure to West Virginia University as Lyons’ presence is wanted on many national and prestigious committees. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he chaired the all-important Football Oversight Committee and played a key role in the sport overcoming, adjusting and managing the difficulties to complete the 2020 season. There’s no doubt that Lyons’ even-keeled demeanor, ability to think outside the box and solve problems played a major role in having a football season in 2020. He is also a member of the NCAA Council and will chair that distinguished committee in 2021-22. Additionally, Lyons served on the NCAA Working Group on Transfers, the Football Competition Committee and the NCAA Wrestling Academics Enhancement Working Group. His work with WVU President E. Gordon Gee’s senior leadership team and the Big 12 Conference has brought additional respect and positive exposure to his department and the University. He’s been a member of the Big 12 Administration Committee, Finance and Budget Committee and the Game Management and Officiating Subcommittee, while chairing the Big 12 athletic directors committee in 2018. In moving his department forward, his Climbing Higher facilities master plan will keep West Virginia a strong Power 5 institution and position his department for growth and continued success. The Time2Climb fundraising membership drive he initiated in 2021 already is getting new donors involved in Mountaineer athletics and helping the Mountaineer Athletic Club grow and plan for the future. From training, nutrition, medical upgrades and competitiveness, Lyons has already left many accomplishments and success in his rearview mirror and the coming year will add to that portfolio. He will officially unveil a complete overhaul of football’s Milan Puskar Center and open a new Olympic Sports Performance Center that will benefit hundreds of student-athletes, bringing them together in one beautiful complex. Lyons inherited aging sports venues in 2015 and worked hard to fundraise, plan and implement more than $200 million in longoverdue facility improvements. One of the end results of his efforts will take place in the fall of 2021, when all 18 varsity sports teams will have their own private and dedicated locker rooms for the first time in school history. In 2019, Lyons commissioned and announced an economic impact study that showed Mountaineer Athletics produced more than $300 million to the state’s economy and more than $78 million to the local economy. And with the local economy in mind, Lyons’s proudly saw the formal opening of a

Following are some guidelines for covering the 2021 Mountaineers. Due to COVID-19, all working space on the sideline and in the press box will be extremely limited and will be issued completely on a priority basis and in accordance with all health and safety regulations. Credentials: All requests for working press, photo and broadcast credentials to cover West Virginia’s 2021 home football games must be applied for online at http://www. sportssystems.com/westvirginia at least two weeks prior to the game. Requests submitted the week of the game only will be honored if space permits. Due to the demand for working credentials, media regularly assigned to cover WVU and the visiting school will receive priority. All photographers must work outside the coaching box as prescribed by the NCAA; they are not permitted in the bench area extended. Photographers must sign in for field access in the press box prior to each game. No children (under the age of 16) are allowed on the sidelines for any reason; any children on the sidelines will be removed, along with their guardians.
