MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Leddie Brown scored a 3-yard touchdown run in the second overtime to lift West Virginia to a 27-21 win over Baylor. The Mountaineers got the go-ahead score after West Virginia’s Tykee Smith intercepted Charlie Brewer on Baylor’s second-overtime possession. West Virginia pulled out the win in a game where offensive consistency was rare and mistakes were plentiful. Baylor surpassed 200 rushing yards a week ago against Kansas but managed 256 yards overall against West Virginia. Brown finished with 93 rushing yards and two short scores. West Virginia quarterback Jarret Doege threw for one score and ran for another.
