Even though we are in the midst of what could still be a special season of West Virginia football, next year’s schedule has been released by WVU and the Big 12. The conference shook up the schedule a bit for 2019, giving the Mountaineers a “rivalry” game on Thanksgiving weekend.
The non-conference slate was set with two Power 5 opponents: WVU opens on Saturday, Aug. 31 hosting FCS powerhouse James Madison, travels to the SEC’s Missouri on Saturday, Sept. 7, then hosts ACC foe N.C. State on Saturday, Sept. 14.
The Mountaineers open Big 12 play on the road against Kansas on Saturday, Sept.
