WVU Football RB Jahiem White tackled by Iowa State

To no surprise, major oddsmakers and sportsbooks are expecting WVU to lose to their second straight ranked opponent in Week 8.

On Sunday, both DraftKings and FanDuel released their odds for the next slate of college football games and have the Mountaineers as a 2.5-point underdog at home to Kansas State.

While West Virginia is coming off a disappointing 28-16 loss to Iowa State on Coal Rush night, the Wildcats managed to avoid an upset. Kansas State beat Colorado 31-28 after entering the week ranked No. 18 in the country by the Associated Press.

Two fourth quarter interceptions from Garrett Greene led to 14 points for the Cyclones. Just like any fan, WVU legend and media mogul Pat McAfee shared his disappointment and thoughts about the rest of the season immediately following the loss on social media.

“West Virginia losing on Coal Rush night is quite a disappointment. Congrats to Iowa State on a massive win in Morgantown… A lot of season left,” McAfee said on X (formerly Twitter).

West Virginia 3-3 (2-1, Big 12) and Kansas State 5-1 (2-1, Big 12) are scheduled to kickoff from Milan Puskar Stadium at 7:30 pm ET. The game will air nationally on Fox.
