MORGANTOWN Parris Campbell Jersey , W.Va. (AP) — No. 13 West Virginia is well aware that Baylor quarterback Brewer almost pulled off a miracle comeback as a freshman against the Mountaineers (5-1, 3-1 Big 12), who are hoping for anything but a repeat when they host the Bears (4-3, 2-2) on Thursday night.Last year Brewer replaced Zach Smith at the start of the fourth quarter against West Virginia with Baylor down 38-13. He rushed for 48 yards and threw two touchdown passes. But with 17 seconds left, Brewer was sacked on a two-point conversion attempt and the Mountaineers escaped with a 38-36 win .“Brewer creates so many different things for them,” said West Virginia defensive coordinator Tony Gibson. “If you’re covering guys downfield, he’s going to take off on you. He will keep plays alive, and we have to be careful that we’re not coming off guys too early, because he can still throw it. He’s dangerous.”Brewer also came up a bit short two weeks ago when he drove Baylor to the Texas 17 with the final seconds ticking down. He rushed his final three passes under intense pressure and the sixth-ranked Longhorns held on to win 23-17.But he’s been on the winning end of last-minute drives, too http://www.coltsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-bobby-okereke-jersey , taking the Bears the length of the field before getting a 29-yard field goal with eight seconds left to beat Kansas State 37-34 on Oct. 6.West Virginia is still smarting from its failure to corral Iowa State quarterback Brock Purdy and running back David Montgomery two weeks ago. Gibson said he counted 31 missed tackles in the 30-14 loss .Iowa State ran the ball 47 times and averaged 5.2 yards per attempt to keep West Virginia’s potent offense on the sidelines. Baylor coach Matt Rhule isn’t sure if the Bears can match that.“In my old life, I would have lined up and tried to run the ball every play,” he said. “That’s just not really who we are. We’re a little more spread and tempo. I owe it to our players to let them go play the way we play best. But it’d be great if we could keep them off the field.”Here’s some other things to know when the Mountaineers and Bears meet:SECOND-HALF BLUESWest Virginia’s offense has been terrible after halftime in three of its four Big 12 contests, getting shut out at Iowa State and Texas Tech and failing to score over the final 22 minutes against Kansas State.CHARLIE AND THE QB FACTORYBrewer attended the same high school in Austin, Texas, as 2017 Heisman Trophy winner Baker Mayfield of Oklahoma. Brewer comes from a family of quarterbacks. His grandfather, father and uncle played at Texas, and older brother Michael Brewer played at Texas Tech and Virginia Tech.IN LAW ‘EERSBaylor running backs coach Jeff Nixon was a running back at West Virginia in 1993 and 1994 before transferring to Penn State, where Rhule also played linebacker. Rhule said he grew up a fan of the Backyard Brawl between West Virginia and Pittsburgh.The connection to West Virginia didn’t end there.“Then, I married my lovely wife Julie whose parents are both Mountaineers Khari Willis Jersey ,” Rhule said.LACK OF TURNOVERSBaylor’s defense has forced just six turnovers all season and Rhule believes getting some against West Virginia could make a difference.“This is a dynamic offense,” he said. “We have to try to create some negative plays. I think our defense is definitely improving, but we have got to create some turnovers and get to the quarterback if we want to come out with a win.”PITTS STATUSWest Virginia cornerback Derek Pitts returned a blocked field goal for a TD at Iowa State but injured a knee later in the game. Coach Dana Holgorsen had no timetable for his return. CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — On a night when the high-powered offense was stuck in neutral, the New Orleans Saints still found a way to grind out a 12-9 win over Carolina behind their ever-improving defense.That could bode well for these Saints (12-2) as they prepare to make a run at the Super Bowl.For years, they’ve relied on star quarterback Drew Brees to score a lot of points, put up big yardage and win games for them. But suddenly the Saints have a defense that is not only keeping them close when the offense sputters, but might be one of the best in the NFL. New Orleans has not allowed more than 17 points in any of its last six games.“That’s what the great teams find a way to do,” said Brees, who was limited to 203 yards passing and intercepted once Monday night. “Despite what happens in the first three quarters or maybe the mistakes that were made prior to that Josh Allen Jersey , they just make the plays you need to make to win the game.”Brees likes that the Saints have found many different ways to win, even though not all of them have been pretty. The 12 points against the Panthers marked the fewest for New Orleans in a victory since 1998.For most of the season the Saints relied on an electrifying offense, scoring 40 points or more six times. But recently it is the defense that has stepped up to make big plays.“There’s a lot to be said for that — finding ways to win,” Brees said. “Battle-tested. These last two weeks, we’ve had to win in the fourth quarter, had to come back and win in the fourth quarter. On the road, divisional games, those are going to be hard-fought. Those are going to be tough and the great teams find a way. Our guys believe we’re all going to step up, we’re going to do this together, somebody’s going to make a play.”The Saints didn’t make a lot of plays Monday http://www.jaguarsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-jawaan-taylor-jersey , but they made enough.There was Eli Apple’s interception of Cam Newton’s pass in the end zone with 10 seconds left before halftime. There was Von Bell’s strip of wide receiver D.J. Moore on an inside handoff and A.J. Klein’s recovery, which led to the go-ahead score. There were four players who sacked Newton — and none were named Cam Jordan. Alvin Kamara had a 50-yard kickoff return.The little plays all add up.“We are playing hard and playing for each other,” Apple said.Unlike some of the NFL’s other top teams — namely, the Rams and Chiefs — the Saints found a way to grind it out without their A game on offense this week.It didn’t matter that the offense failed to gain more than 30 yards on seven of its first eight drives. It didn’t matter because New Orleans could count on its defense.Jordan called it the best he’s ever played on.“I believe in us, game in and game out, first quarter to fourth quarter,” Jordan said. “If it comes down to a crucial play, I believe in us. If we need a turnover, I believe in us.”New Orleans has already wrapped up the NFC South title and can clinch home-field advantage throughout the playoffs with a victory in either of its last two games, both at home Josh Oliver Jersey , against Pittsburgh and Carolina.Looking for their second Super Bowl championship in a decade, the well-rounded Saints might just be the favorites heading into the postseason.“We were just trying to stack weeks because you know you want to play your best ball in December,” said Bell, who also had seven tackles and a sack. “That’s what people remember and going into this last stretch we wanted to finish strong.”
