Originally scheduled for November 28th, WVU Footballβs matchup against Utah at Rice-Eccles Stadium will now be played on November 27th – Black Friday.
This will mark the second matchup between the Mountaineers and Utes as Big 12 foes. Utah convincingly won the previous contest in Morgantown, 48-14.
