West Virginia has another big stage in front of them this Saturday as they take on No. 17 Kansas State. The game takes place in the 7:30 primetime slot on FOX and features Connor Onion as play-by-play man and Mark Helfrich as color analyst.

Head coach Neal Brown discussed his disappointment in the loss to Iowa State last week, admitting that everything from the new uniforms, the coal rush, the fans and everything leading up to the game was great, but they failed to make a to make it a complete evening. .

Brown is now 3-16 against ranked opponents during his tenure as West Virginia’s head coach, but with a win over K-State the Mountaineers would position themselves well to make a run in the back half of the schedule to get to Dallas to go for the Big 12 championship game.

Kansas State is coming off a thrilling 31-28 win over Colorado, a game they led by two scores for most of the evening. The only blemish on K-State’s schedule is a bizarre 38-9 loss to BYU on the road, where things quickly spiraled out of control late in the second/early third quarter. The Wildcats actually defeated the Cougars 367-241 in that one.
