The West Virginia Mountaineers did everything they had to this week. They played a conference a opponent who has always been a thorn in their side and dispatched them with relative ease. The unfortunate part for WVU is that so did basically everyone above them and because of that, the ‘Eers remain 12th in the AP Poll.
Good news for West Virginia is that while they remain at the same position, they gained 82 votes from last week. Last week both Washington and Penn State had 947 votes to stay at 10th while WVU checked in with 841 votes for 12th.
