STILLWATER — Mason Rudolph's sixth pass was intercepted. He threw four consecutive incompletions to end the first quarter. He took a second quarter safety. Tossed two more picks in the third.
In 2015, Oklahoma State beat West Virginia in overtime, 33-26, but Rudolph's first trip to Morgantown finished with the worst performance of his young career. The sophomore quarterback completed 50 percent of his passes in arguably the most raucous road environment of the season.
But it wasn't just the Mountaineer faithful that caused Rudolph problems. It was also WVU's talented and unique defensive scheme. Rudolph will get round two starting 11 a.
