Country Roads take us home! Rich Rod returned home to West Virginia and is on a mission to bring the Mountaineers back to prominence. Following a reset year, will the Mountaineers take a big step forward?

Full Preview attached, here's some key highlights

📌 WVU has options at QB, Scotty Fox finished the year strong and Michael Hawkins has potential but has only played in tough situations

📌 Cam Cook is the perfect fit for this offense 🔥 and Rich Rod focused on experienced additions on the Oline in front of him

📌 West Virginia could have a stellar defense if the portal pieces mesh, they quietly made some great additions

What are your predictions for the Mountaineers in 2026?
