The Last Time BYU Played West Virginia

BYU and West Virginia have faced each other only time. That game happened in 2016 in Kalani Sitake's first season as BYU's head coach. The Cougars trailed most of the game and they trailed by as many as 16 points in the fourth quarter. BYU scored a couple touchdowns to get back in the game, but the comeback attempt fell short. Taysom Hill threw an interception in the end zone on the last drive of the game and BYU lost 32-35.

Jamaal Williams and Taysom Hill led a BYU rushing attack that finished with 280 total rushing yards. Williams led all rushers with 169 yards on 24 carries and Hill added 105 yards on 14 carries.

West Virginia was led by quarterback Skyler Howard. Howard finished with 332 passing yards, 1 touchdown, and 1 interception.
