Misery Index · Miserable · ▲ from 19
Three wins bought a week of hope, and Oklahoma State repossessed it before halftime, as per usual.
What happened
Three wins in, the Mountaineers walked into Saturday with something resembling belief, and Oklahoma State spent the afternoon dismantling it, 41-24. The turning point was less a single snap than the moment the crowd recognized the pattern: hope, then collapse, on schedule. Misery jumped from 29 to 71 in a week. One fan summed up the whole arrangement as "Same ol' WVU, get your hopes up a bit and then immediately shit the bed." At 3-1, the fanbase isn't mourning the record. It's mourning the familiarity.
