After 0-4 start to Big 12, WVU turns focus to Texas Tech

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) Enough about West Virginia's brutal October. Coach Dana Holgorsen only wants to think about getting his players ready for a finishing stretch that still has some importance.

The Mountaineers (3-4, 0-4 Big 12) must win three of their remaining five games to become bowl eligible, starting with Saturday at home against Texas Tech (5-4, 2-4).

Plagued by a sputtering offense and a defense hit by injuries, West Virginia lost to No. 14 Oklahoma, No. 12 Oklahoma State, No. 2 Baylor and No. 5 TCU last month. Only one of those was by single digits.
