MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – For West Virginia fans, there is a growing sense of frustration over the Mountaineers’ inability to win a conference title since moving to the Big 12 in 2012.
But frustration is a more enjoyable emotion than whatever Syracuse fans have felt since moving to the ACC when the Big East folded in 2013 – although that despair is rapidly transforming into something far better.
For the Orange, a trip to the Camping World Bowl marks a major step forward for a program that was initially left a step behind after the great collegiate conference reshuffle.
