While TCU is the No. 7 ranked team in the country and have had one of their better seasons this year, everyone knew that having to go into Morgantown on Saturday and face West Virginia would be no easy task.
Well, as a lot of people may have expected, things are not going so well for Gary Patterson and company.
West Virginia took a 13-7 lead into the half, but TCU fired back in the third quarter to take a 14-13 lead. Since then, though, it’s been all Mountaineers.
Their latest score, to go up 27-14, came off of this fumble recovery from Terrell Chestnut, who proceeded to take off the other way for the score.
The West Virginia defense has just been about as dominant as can be on Saturday and have shut down the vaunted TCU offense, the same one that put up 82 points in their win last weekend.
