Sooners back on course with 59-20 shellacking of Mountaineers

An Oklahoma offense clicking on all cylinders scored on its first five possessions while its defense held West Virginia to just seven points in that time, then went on to a 59-20 win that saw Dillon Gabriel become the first Sooner quarterback to score eight touchdowns in a game.
