Game Preview

No. 7 Penn State and former perennial foe West Virginia meet for the first time since 1992 when the two squads open the season on Saturday night.

The Nittany Lions have won 32 of the past 34 matchups, including a 40-26 road win on Oct. 24, 1992 when Kerry Collins was Penn State’s star quarterback.

The Nittany Lions left the independent ranks and moved into the Big Ten the following season and there was no room on the schedule to continue playing the Mountaineers. Penn State holds a 48-9-2 edge in the series and is 31-3 at home.
