8 Weeks Out: Countdown to WVU Football Game Day Begins 🏈
With just eight weeks to go, the excitement is building in Morgantown and beyond as West Virginia University football fans mark their calendars for the return of Mountaineer football. Anticipation for the 2025 season opener is reaching a fever pitch, as players gear up, coaches finalize strategies, and fans prepare for Saturdays filled with pride, passion, and plenty of gold and blue.
This year promises to be one of the most intriguing for WVU in recent memory. With a mix of returning veterans, highly-touted newcomers, and fresh talent from the transfer portal, head coach Neal Brown and his staff have the tools to make some serious noise in the Big 12. The quarterback battle—featuring Garrett Greene, Nicco Marchiol, and incoming freshman sensations—is expected to headline fall camp and could shape the trajectory of the entire season.
Off the field, the Mountaineer faithful are just as invested. Season ticket sales are climbing, tailgating plans are in full swing, and social media is buzzing with bold predictions, highlight reels, and throwback hype videos. WVU’s schedule features tough matchups, but with eight weeks remaining, fans are already dreaming of upset wins, rivalry revenge, and bowl game glory.
From Milan Puskar Stadium to Mountaineer Nation across the country, the countdown is more than just a number—it’s a rallying cry. Whether you’re a student, alum, or lifelong supporter, now’s the time to break out the flying WV, brush up on “Country Roads,” and get ready to back the boys in Old Gold and Blue.
Only eight Saturdays stand between now and kickoff. Let the countdown to game day begin. Let’s go, Moun
taineers!
