PITTSBURGH (93.7 The Fan) – For the second time, the Oklahoma-West Virginia game in Morgantown has been postponed. This time it will not be made up.
West Virginia is reporting a surge of positive COVID-19 cases within the football program and they have paused all activities for the next seven days.
“Our intent is to get this spread under control as soon as possible for the health and safety of all involved,” said West Virginia Director of Athletes Shane Lyons in a statement released by the school. “We are beyond disappointed not to play our final home game of the season and honor our seniors, but we need to act now and reevaluate our situation after Dec. 17.”
Nearly every publication has projected the 5-4 Mountaineers will be invited to a bowl game.
