If Texas beats Baylor at 9 p.m. Monday on ESPN2, not an unrealistic possibility, then WVU would be tied with Oklahoma for first place in the Big 12.

IF #14 WVU can beat #13 Iowa State without Jonathon Holton at 9 p.m. Tuesday on ESPN2, and TCU knocks off Oklahoma the same night, the Mountaineers would be alone atop the Big 12.

We can dream, can’t we?

If WVU (makes and...) goes undefeated in March Madness they will win a national title.

Well, Texas did beat Baylor.

If I had to bet though, I'd say that after Wednesday's games we will be in a 5 way tie for second.

Till and IF it happens, I'll expect otherwise. Pollyanna has nothing on me.

See?

Never take on an octogenarian. They will riddle you every time!

Beauty of this game is that WVU did NOT panic despite all the first half problems and the hot Iowa State hand with the 3's. But the Cyclones wore down, AND panicked, and their superstar had the worst turnover game of his life, too.

Huggins is doing a fantastic job. And without Jon Holton, too. That makes it even sweeter.

Next?
