Bowl projections for West Virginia early in Week 10

It’s been an up and down season so far for West Virginia Mountaineers but disappointing in first eight games. The feeling around the program would have been much different if they had at least held on to beat Pitt in the Backyard Brawl back in September.

Sitting at 5-3 heading into the second bye week is far more respectable than 4-4, but an offense that looked absolutely ridiculous against Iowa State and Kansas State remains inexcusable for a team that entered the year with Big 12 title aspirations.

With just four games remaining, the Mountaineers need two wins to qualify for the tournament. And believe it or not, mathematically they’re still in the Big 12 conference race, but they’ll need to win out and get some help to punch their ticket to Dallas.

As crazy as this league is, there’s a very good chance someone will come into this conference championship game with two losses. The only problem is that WVU is coming off tiebreakers against Iowa State and Kansas State, which means that the final month of the season should be pure chaos.

Like every week, it’s time to look online to see where people plan to bowl this season.
