What happened

ESPN RECAP

Grier, Crawford help West Virginia put away Kansas, 56-34

LAWRENCE, Kan. -- Will Grier threw for 347 yards and accounted for four touchdowns, Justin Crawford ran for 125 yards and another score and West Virginia pulled away late to beat pesky Kansas 56-34 on Saturday. David Sills V had 130 yards and two TDs receiving, and Kennedy McKoy also reached the end zone twice, as the Mountaineers (3-1, 1-0 Big 12) beat Kansas (1-3, 0-1) for the sixth time in seven meetings. They did it by overcoming a career game from sophomore Khalil Herbert , who ran for 291 yards and two TDs. It was the third-most yards by a Kansas player on the ground in school history. Peyton Bender added 197 yards and a TD through the air, but he also threw a pair of picks, while a porous defense that allowed 40-plus points to Central Michigan and Ohio struggled once more.
