WVU Football Fans React to Fumble-Filled Opening Game

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – The WVU football team started the season with a 45-3 win over Robert Morris. It was a bumpy ride to start out for the Mountaineers, as they were only up 10-3 with four fumbles to at halftime.

Fans took to social media to give their thoughts.

Apparently banning Tik Tok does not directly correlate with holding onto the football
