MORGANTOWN, W.VA. - West Virginia opens Big 12 Conference play following a tremendous victory in the 2025 edition of the Backyard Brawl against Pitt. The Mountaineers are on the road to face the Kansas Jayhawks in Lawrence, Kansas, at 6 p.m. ET on FS1.




Reinvigorated is West Virginia, following its 31-24 overtime victory over arch-rival Pitt last Saturday in Morgantown, while Kansas has revenge on its mind after last year's 32-28 loss in Morgantown when the Jayhawks blew an 11-point lead with 5:30 remaining in the fourth quarter.
