Old Big East rivals Miami and No. 16 West Virginia meet for the first time since 2003 in the Russell Athletic Bowl Dec. 28 (5:30 p.m. ET, ESPN) at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida, in the lone Big 12-ACC matchup of this bowl season. Here’s a quick look at what to expect.
How West Virginia beats you: The Mountaineers pummel their opponents. On both sides of the ball. This is not Big 12 football as you saw it in the states of Oklahoma and Texas. West Virginia plays real defense, leading the conference in defensive QBR and yards per opponent pass attempt.
