Fourth down stop energizes West Virginia defense

Virginia Tech had seized momentum leading 7-3 in the second quarter with the football. A 21-yard chunk pass play with the Hokies going up tempo, combined with a personal foul late hit and another 9-yard catch and run set their offense up at the Mountaineers 18-yard line looking to expand their lead even further. After a Keshawn King run was stuffed for no gain by Lee Kpogba and Jasir Cox on third and one, Virginia Tech head coach Brent Pry had a decision to make.
