MORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- Will Grier threw three touchdown passes, Justin Crawford ran for three scores and West Virginia beat Delaware State 59-16 on Saturday.
The Mountaineers (2-1) compiled 538 yards of offense against an FCS team that lost its 14th straight game. But West Virginia made plenty of problems on both sides of the ball in its final tuneup before the start of Big 12 play.
Grier finished 19 of 27 for 304 yards before being replaced by backup Chris Chugunov late in the third quarter. Grier had TD throws of 62 and 16 yards to Marcus Simms and 28 yards to Ka'Raun White.
