West Virginia scored 13 points in the final 1:11 to force overtime, including Pat McAfee’s 52-yard field goal as time ran out. McAfee also had a 27-yard field goal in overtime.

at No. 25 Pittsburgh 41, Louisville 7: Receiver Aundre Wright ran seven yards for his first college touchdown after having a long scoring run called back by a holding penalty and the Panthers (7-2, 3-1) turned four turnovers into scores in routing the Cardinals (5-4, 1-3).
