John Talley
Only once has a Mountaineer player both thrown a touchdown pass and caught a touchdown pass in the same game. Who was the player, and when was the game?
When the Mountaineers destroyed the Northern Illinois Huskies 47-14 on September 6, 1986, John Talley, brother of former WVU All-American Darryl Talley, became the first and so far only player in the modern history of West Virginia football to both throw and catch a touchdown pass in the same game. Talley caught a 22-yard touchdown pass from Mike Timko early in the second quarter, and then he threw a 6-yard TD pass to tailback Undra Johnson later in the third quarter.
