WVU basketball blown out in opener against Texas A&M

The Mountaineers were blown out by Texas A&M in the Armed Forces Classic from Germany. The Aggies picked up an 88-65 victory against the WVU basketball team.

This isn’t how the Mountaineers pictured their season staring at all. West Virginia came into the season ranked No. 11 in the country. Now, the WVU basketball team is 0-1 and will come back to the country looking to regroup.

The Mountaineers started off on fire by leading 20-7 in the first few minutes of the game. The 13-point lead dwindled as the Aggies switched from a man-to-man defense to a zone.
