West Virginia and No. 17 Pittsburgh kick off the 2022 season by renewing the Backyard Brawl series on Sept. 1, the first meeting between unfriendly neighbors since 2011.
"It’s been a great carrot for our guys as we’ve gone through winter, through spring ball, now through summer workouts to know that," said West Virginia coach Neal Brown, whose Mountaineers have won three consecutive meetings with Pitt. "Man, we’ve got not only a game to look forward to but it’s a rivalry game that’s going to be in prime time. We’re not playing on so-called Week 0, but we are the premier Power Five game versus a Power Five opponent on Thursday night, and our guys are excited."
The rivalry renewal is also a reunion for a pair of former Southern California quarterbacks with Kedon Slovis emerging as Pitt’s starter one week before kickoff.
He’ll oppose West Virginia’s JT Daniels, the well-traveled former five-star recruit who previously battled Slovis for snaps at Southern Cal.
