ToIt's been a roller coaster of a season for West Virginia football, but the Mountaineers will at least be playing in the postseason.

The Mountaineers hosted UCF at Milan Puskar Stadium on Saturday, in a game where both teams were looking to secure an extra game come the end of the regular season.

In a battle between two potent ground attacks, the Mountaineers were able to produce a little bit more offensively, rushing for 200 yards and gaining 318 total yards to secure a 31-21 win on senior day.

WVU was led by the two-headed monster of running backs CJ Donaldson Jr. and Jahiem White, who combined for 150 rushing yard and three touchdowns.

Quarterback Garrett Greene also had a respectable outing in his final game at Milan Puskar, finishing 13-of-21 passing for 118 yards and one touchdown while adding 49 rushing yards.

WVU (6-4) will close the season next week with a road trip to Texas Tech.
