Morgantown, West Virginia, is an undesirable environment for opponents to play in — it’s always a wild atmosphere and the Mountaineers are notoriously frisky at home — but OSU has in recent years fared well there entering Week 10’s tilt down the country roads.
The Cowboys are 3-2 all-time on West Virginia’s turf with a three-game winning streak in Morgantown bolstering an 8-4 all-time lead in the series. A win Saturday would extend the longest win streak for either team in the series, but more importantly at stake for OSU is the chance to splash into the Top 10 of the College Football Playoff rankings and remain in the Big 12 title hunt.
