Look: WVU Football Previews New Country Roads Uniform

WVU Football has released a preview of their new Country Roads uniform for the upcoming season. This year’s edition features a gold theme as opposed to the white uniforms last year.

West Virginia revealed their new uniform style in 2022 before the return of the Backyard Brawl. The Mountaineers wore the uniforms against Pitt and Virginia Tech last season, going 1-1 in the white.

The new uniform is the same style but with the West Virginia gold color. The “Mountaineers” across the chest replaces “West Virginia”. The state’s country roads are outlined in the stripes on the numbers, helmets, sleeves and pants with a special emphasis placed on Interstate 79 which connects the two schools. The words “Cue Country Roads” surround the neck on the inside of the jersey.

It’s expected that West Virginia will wear the Country Roads uniform against Pitt this season. WVU and Pitt will play on Saturday, Sept. 16 at Milan Puskar Stadium. The Backyard Brawl will kick off at 7:30 p.m. on ABC.
