West Virginia women's basketball dropped another game where a win was within easy reach due to inconsistent offense this past week when they dropped a road game at Oklahoma State -- and that loss was enough to send the Mountaineers tumbling 3 spots in the latest edition of the AP Top 25 Women's College Basketball Poll.

The Mountaineers went from No. 17 last week to No. 20 in the this week's poll -- the Cowgirls of Oklahoma State did climb into the poll as well after knocking WVU off, sitting at No. 24 overall. Three additional Big 12 teams also found themselves ranked in the poll, with two above WVU -- No. 10 TCU, No. 11 Kansas State, and No. 23 Utah all made appearances.

The Mountaineers will look to right the ship with a pair of home Big 12 matchups this week -- on Wednesday they'll play host to Colorado, who defeated WVU in December, and then they will welcome Iowa State to Morgantown on Sunday.
