MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Skyler Howard threw four touchdowns against the hometown school that didn’t recruit him as No. 12 West Virginia crushed TCU 34-10.

Rushel Shell ran for 117 yards, Howard threw for 231 and the Mountaineers (6-0, 3-0) extended their best start since beginning 7-0 in 2006. The most surprising aspect has been the defense, which suffocated one of the nation’s high-scoring attacks for the second straight week.

Despite 103 rushing yards from Kyle Hicks, the Frogs (4-3, 2-2) fell to 0-3 against teams currently ranked in the AP top 25 and came nowhere near their 40 points-per-game average.
