Without seniors Keenan Evans, Zach Smith, and Justin Gray, a difficult game was expected for the Red Raiders in Morgantown, and suppositions came true on Monday night, as the Mountaineers started the game with a 16-0 run and won without too many problems.
This is the fourth loss in a row for Texas Tech, that slipped in the third position in the Big 12, one game behind West Virginia and 1⁄2 game in front of Kansas State. A victory over TCU in the last game of the regular season would guarantee the Red Raiders the No.
