Bowl SZN: Projecting WVU’s Bowl Scenarios

With WVU’s regular season ended, we take a look at the possibilities for where the Mountaineers will be spending part of their Christmas vacation and who they might face.

First let’s recap the BIG XII bowl tie-ins and selection order (note this is the order they pick in, other than the Sugar Bowl, which must take the conference champion if they’re not in the CFP, a bowl may select any team available.)

  1. Valero Alamo Bowl
  2. Camping World Bowl
  3. Academy Sports + Outdoors Texas Bowl
  4. Autozone Liberty Bowl
  5. Cheeze- It Cactus Bowl
  6. Lockheed Martin Armed Forces

Readers will know that both the Peach Bowl and the Fiesta Bowl have, collectively, 3 at-large spots to bid out as well, but it seems unlikely that WVU would be much of a candidate for those over LSU, Washington State, Florida or Penn State (Georgia is locked into either the Sugar Bowl or the CFP).
