COMMENTARY
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Tony Gibson says Baylor is playing like the No. 1 team in the nation. A West Virginia sportswriter and 12 other AP pollsters even voted the Bears such.
They may as well congratulate Daytona for having a beach.
Baylor ultimately could prove to be as fast, furious and fantastic as these bloated final scores indicate, but the evidence is beyond circumstantial so far. Want to know how West Virginia could have started 5-0? By playing Baylor’s schedule, that’s how.
Gibson gets a pass because he has to say great things about this week’s opponent—it’s compulsory coachspeak.
