After spending much of the last decade as the best road team in college basketball, Wichita State will enter February of this season without a road win, the longest drought in the program in 18 years.
The Shockers dropped another one on Saturday night, an 80-60 loss to Connecticut at a sold-out Gampel Pavilion. WSU is 0-6 on the road with the losses coming by an average of 16.8 points. It is the worst road start to a season since the 2000-01 Shockers went winless in 11 road games.
It was the seventh loss in the last eight games for WSU, which fell to 8-11 overall and 1-6 in AAC play.
