The Mountaineers are coming off a frustrating performance Saturday in Manhattan Kansas. Though no conference road win can be undervalued, there was little good to take away from that one. The lone exception was the play of Jaysean Paige, who showed Coach Huggins and the WVU faithful that there may be at least one guy on this team that can consistently score with the ball in his hands in close games.
As WVU takes on Texas Christian in Fort Worth tonight, the story is a familiar one; if WVU wants to assert itself as a contender for the Big 12 conference title, this is absolutely a must win game.
