The TCU Horned Frogs are back to their winning ways after taking down the West Virginia Mountaineers at home Tuesday night 76-72. Speaking of which, here's TCU basketball big man Xavier Cork exploding on a Mountaineers defender for a massive dunk that you bet will be replayed over and over in Fort Worth at least for the rest of the week.

Asked after the game about the ground-shaking slam of Cork, TCU star Damion Baugh couldn't keep himself from cursing. “Can I curse,” Baugh asked before saying ” “Oh, sh–!,” (h/t Charles Baggarly of The Dallas Morning News).

Cork doesn't usually have a big role for TCU this season, as he entered the West Virginia game with just a 14.0 percent usage rate, per Barttovik, but versus the Mountaineers the 6-9 junior put on a show. He finished with 15 points with four rebounds and four blocks in 26 minutes. Cork played in only 14 minutes and scored just two points with a rebound back in the first meeting this season with West Virginia, which was a 74-65 loss in Morgantown for TCU, so he's definitely savoring his performance in the latest showdown against Bob Huggins' team.
