MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — And on the fifth week, West Virginia rested.
So did TCU, which should leave two well-prepped teams primed for next weekend’s top 25 clash in Fort Worth.

Total offense (2nd): The product of balanced play-calling and explosive blows, West Virginia averages 594 yards per game. That’s No. 2 in the country and No. 2 in its own league, where Oklahoma averages 605.
