Baylor and West Virginia played a typical high-scoring, closely-contested Big 12 football game--which was decided in a very atypical fashion. West Virginia led 7-0 early but in the second quarter Baylor came back to take a 17-7 lead. The Bears then answered the next three Mountaineer' TDs with touchdowns of their own, the last on a 4-yard Qualan Jones run, pushing the score to 37-31, setting up the PAT attempt which decided the game. John Mayers' kick was blocked and Jacoby Spells returned it for a rare 2-point defensive score, producing the three point difference in WVa's 43-40 win over Baylor.
