Betting Line Finally Pops from Major Sportsbook for WVU-Albany

After not having one all week, a major betting line has finally popped up for West Virginia’s game later this evening. FanDuel has the line for WVU and Albany set at 35.5 with the Mountaineers considered a big favorite over their FCS opponent.

The over/under is at 53.5 as Neal Brown and his team look to rebound from a disappointing effort in Week 1 and pick up their first win of the 2024 season.

In keeping with the Gold Rush theme for this Saturday, West Virginia will wear an all gold uniform.

This means a gold helmet, jersey and pants. And to compliment the gold on gold on gold, the numbers and everything else will be in blue.

Fans are, of course, asked to wear their best gold gear, too.

But since looking sharp didn’t matter against Penn State, it’s safe to say WVU fans are more concerned with how the Mountaineers play.

West Virginia and Albany are set to kickoff from Milan Puskar Stadium at 6 pm ET on Saturday evening. The game will air on ESPN+. And then after the game is over, the focus will shift to the end of the non conference schedule and a Backyard
Brawl rubber match with Pitt.
