MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Through nearly four seasons and its first 33 games in the Big 12, West Virginia had never held an opponent to single-digits scoring.
Now it has accomplished the feat in back-to-back weeks.
After Saturday’s 30-6 win over Iowa State, which followed a 49-0 thumping at Kansas, the Mountaineers are second to Oklahoma in Big 12 scoring defense (23.1 points per game). During its four-game winning streak, West Virginia has held each opposing offense below its season averages:
| Opponent | vs. WVU | Other games |
|---|---|---|
| Texas Tech | Lost 31-26 | 48. |
