MORGANTOWN, W.Va. - Skyler Howard tied a career-high five with touchdown passes to lead West Virginia to a harder-than-expected 38-21 victory over Youngstown State at Milan Puskar Stadium this afternoon.
“I give them a lot of credit for keeping it close,” said West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen, who improved to 6-0 at WVU against FCS schools. “If you look over the last four years, they have played FBS schools and won and were competitive in the others, so it’s not surprising to me. We were prepared for this and our guys didn’t panic when it was close.
