As the calendar turns to September, the West Virginia Mountaineers turn their attention to a road matchup in Athens, Ohio, with the Ohio Bobcats. WVU football is fresh off a 45-3 win over Robert Morris in Rich Rodriguez’s return as the head coach. In Week 2, the Ohio crowd will certainly be amped up to host a power conference team like the Mountaineers. The Bobcats took a close Week 1 loss on the road against a power opponent to open the season, but are coming off a 2024 season in which they went 11-3 and won the MAC Championship in blowout fashion with a 38-3 win over Miami (OH).
