West Virginia dominated much of the second half on the way to a 26-11 victory over Missouri on Saturday in Morgantown. The Mountaineers found success on the ground and dominated the first and third quarters on the way to a comfortable win.
WVU led 13-3 at halftime, and the primary story was drive finishing. The Mountaineers were stuffed and forced to attempt an early 19-yard field goal and settled for a second-quarter field goal as well (a shaky pass interference penalty call on Aarion Penton gave them that scoring opportunity). The only touchdown of the first half was a 23-yard rush by Shell.
