Texas 47, West Virginia 40 (OT): Case McCoy threw for 283 yards and three touchdowns - including the winner in overtime - as the Longhorns won their sixth straight.

Texas (7-2, 6-0 Big 12) overcame a disastrous start - a blocked punt for a safety and two turnovers in the first quarter - by scoring on four straight possessions in the second half. Malcolm Brown rushed for 89 yards and a touchdown and Jaxon Shipley had seven catches for 82 yards and a score.

Paul Millard went 16-of-32 for 259 yards in relief for West Virginia (4-6, 2-5) and Charles Sims scored three times. Mario Alford had four catches for 97 yards and the touchdown that put West Virginia ahead by three with 7:39 left.

The Longhorns turned three sack-fumbles into their 13 first-half points but West Virgina held a 19-13 lead thanks to two Sims scores. Sims added his third touchdown midway through the third quarter and West Virginia answered Texas touchdowns with Dreamius Smith's 8-yard scoring run and Alford's 72-yard catch-and-run in the fourth.

Shipley's fourth-down catch set up Anthony Fera's game-tying,, 24-yard field goal with 13 seconds left and McCoy hit Alex De La Torre for a 2-yard score on the first overtime possession. Texas tipped back-to-back pass attempts before Steve Edmond intercepted Millard's fourth-down pass.
