We’re on the back end of our look at those moments that have haunted West Virginia Mountaineer fans, and we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention anything involving the Mountaineers’ rivalry with the Penn State Nittany Lions.
The WVU/Penn State series is not one that Mountaineer fans are proud of. Nor should they be. From 1904 to 1992, the two teams played 59 times. The Nittany Lions won 48 of those games, the Mountaineers won 9, and the two teams tied twice. From 1956 to 1983, the Mountaineers didn’t get a win over the much hated foes from Happy Valley.
