Twitter Reaction: WVU Fans Excited About Bowl Fate
WVU will play North Carolina in the Duke’s Mayo Bowl. This pits two 8-win teams against each other in a battle between Big 12 and ACC schools.
How is Mountaineer Nation reacting to this news and matchup, especially since it was unexpected and required a bowl trade of sorts due to an unequal number of bowl eligible teams.

It's good as you can for a meaningless bowl game if you are the proprietors of a mwaningless bowl game since WVU – which always travels well – will have a huge contingent make the drivable trip to Charlotte https://t.co/jAZ2XTwhoM

Duke’s Mayo Bowl was the perfect landing spot for #WVU. Short distance to a nice city with plenty of alum or WV transplants. A good matchup and test. #UNC is pretty solid.

This is a very winnable bowl… but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want Drake Maye playing. 😅 #WVU
