COMMENTARY
West Virginia at Missouri is the type of matchup that should be a regular feature on college football’s non-conference menu.
Two respectable programs from power conferences will complete a home-and-home series. It certainly isn’t the biggest matchup between the Big 12 and SEC on Saturday – LSU at Texas takes that cake – but it is still the type of game fans will actually pay money to see. Games like this are too frequently played at neutral sites in this era if they are played at all.
Of course, the Tigers and Mountaineers would have put on a much more exciting show last season with NFL Draft prospects Drew Lock and Will Grier leading the way at quarterback.
