Football Season Opener Moved to Sunday, Sept. 3

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. –

The longtime rivals will battle for the Black Diamond Trophy for the first time in 12 years. The series dates back to 1912 and is the fifth-longest in WVU history (51). This also marks the third time West Virginia has played at FedExField, defeating James Madison, 42-12, in 2012, and BYU, 35-32, last year.

Mountaineer Athletic Club (MAC) members for 2016 and 2017 and 2016 football season ticket holders have the first opportunity to order tickets through the Mountaineer Ticket Office to be seated in WVU’s allotment.

MAC members and season ticket holders can log into their online account at WVUGAME.
