Morgantown, W.Va. (Aug. 24, 2024) - U92 The Moose will broadcast West Virginia University’s first home football game of the 2024 season versus Penn State on Aug. 31, 2024.
West Virginia opened up against Penn State last year but fell short with a final score of 38-15. WVU finished last season with nine wins.
They return many key players and are adding some transfers that look to have immediate impact on the team. Head Coach Neal Brown has attacked the Transfer Portal in the offseason to make the team better.
West Virginia returns star QB, Garrett Greene, who is expected by many to have a big season as the leader on offense. Greene didn’t play in every game last season due to injury but came back and led WVU to many key victories, some of which fans will remember for a while.
West Virginia is coming off of a 30-10 win in the Dukes Mayo Bowl in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Penn State’s last game was a 38-25 loss in the peach bowl to Ole Miss. Drew Allar finished the season with a 60% completion percentage and looks to make that even better.
The Nittany Lions will come into a hostile Milan Puskar Stadium and try and get a win, but for WVU they will try to start their season off 1-0 against a ranked opponent for the first time in a while. This is the biggest game to open up the year for the university for the first time in a long time.
