This is the second time this season that a WVU home game has had to be postponed due to weather. The opening game against Penn State also had to be halted due to lightning. That delay lasted more than two hours, so let's hope it goes a little quicker this time.

Kansas trailed 14-7 at halftime, but scored a touchdown on the first drive of the second half to tie the game. Jalon Daniels found Luke Grimm with a seven-yard touchdown, which was the quarterback's first touchdown of the game.

WVU scored a field goal on the next drive to take the lead again, 17-14. Kansas wasn't done there, however, and responded with another touchdown to take the lead for the first time in the game. Daniel Hishaw ran the ball in from 10 meters away.

The Jayhawks have been very successful on the ground so far, scoring 197 yards and two touchdowns. The Mountaineers have already suffered two turnovers.

They will need to limit their mistakes if they are to bounce back from the weather-related delay in the West Virginia-Kansas game.
