Matthew McCrane missed a 43-yard field goal with just a couple of minutes left to play, and Kansas State (2-2, 0-1) -- out of timeouts due to gross clock mismanagement earlier in the half -- was forced to helplessly watch West Virginia (4-0, 1-0) run out the clock in a 17-16 Mountaineer victory. It's West Virginia's first win over K-State since 1930.
The first half of the first quarter was completely unintelligible to the average Big 12 fan. K-State had to punt after receiving the opening kickoff. West Virginia drove into field goal range, but Josh Lambert -- in his first action of the year after a team-imposed suspension -- missed a 30-yard field goal.
