Following disastrous TCU loss, West Virginia season reaches tipping point

COMMENTARY

When West Virginia recently dropped three straight games, the hope was that it was a temporary lull accelerated by a tough schedule.

No one is beating Kansas and Baylor in back-to-back games this season, with a split being the best thing that even a very good team could ask for. The loss that started the streak at Oklahoma was ugly, but not an unexpected hiccup against a team that needed a signature victory to solidify its tournament resume.

With Saturday’s horrendous loss at TCU, West Virginia showed its losing streak was no lull, and its inability to win on the road no coincidence.
