West Virginia vying to snap losing streak at No. 1 Baylor

How long has it been since the last time Baylor lost a basketball game?

When the Bears fell to Washington on Nov. 8, they officially had more losses than their 8-0 football team.

Baylor (23-1, 11-0 Big 12) has not had a blemish since, and as a result has occupied the No. 1 spot in the AP Poll for the past four weeks.

It has been an unlikely ascent to the top of the mountain for a program that has not won a conference title since 1950. Power forward Mario Kegler, a projected all-conference pick, was kicked off the team right before the start of preseason practices.
