TCU has never won in Morgantown, going 0-5 in its first five trips. But neither had Texas Tech and we saw how that turned out.
But this is a game TCU has to have as it looks to build a resume worthy of inclusion in March Madness. With four games remaining, TCU needs to go 2-2 to get to the eight-win mark in conference play, which has been a benchmark number in previous years to earn a bid.
As far as West Virginia is concerned, it is the league’s worst defense team, the league’s worst 3-point shooting team, the league’s worst team at defending the 3, the league’s worst field goal percentage team (40.9 percent), and the list goes on.
Tuesday’s game marks the 100th game in the Jamie Dixon era at TCU. The Frogs are 63-36 under Dixon, who has turned around the program in impressive fashion. TCU is confident, of course. Despite the injuries and roster depletion, Saturday helped reaffirm its status as NCAA Tournament worthy.
TCU is just 1-6 on the road in conference play this season. WVU is just 2-5 at home and 0-7 on the road. TCU knocked off ISU this past Saturday.
