So, that was fun, yeah?
Missouri thoroughly dominated a West Virginia team that might be one of the worst P5 teams in the country! And that’s no disrespect to Mountaineer faithful: If they had any inclinations of how this year was going to go beyond “full-on Year Zero total rebuild,” they certainly were fooling themselves. Listen, Neal Brown is a helluva coach and is going to be great in Morgantown, but he inherited a roster completely devoid of proven talent— the house was basically stripped down to the studs, and now he has to go plank-by-painful-plank to get West Virginia back to couch-burning levels of contention.
