Nothing says college football like rivalries, and nothing says rivalry like the Backyard Brawl.
Pitt hosts West Virginia in Week 3 of the college football season for this year's edition of the Backyard Brawl. It's the third straight year of the matchup after an 11-year hiatus.
The Panthers are glad they have home field advantage this time. They lost 17-6 last season in Morgantown but won the matchup in 2022 in Pittsburgh, so there's certainly a benefit when the Panthers play at Acrisure Stadium. But can they bounce back from last season?
Pitt won just three games a year after finishing 22nd in the AP Poll. They don't have much time to turn it around and live up to the standard of the program, and the game against West Virginia will be the test they need. For the Mountaineers, a mentally tough football game will prepare them for an expanded, and better, Big 12.
The Backyard Brawl is a classic for good reason. Here's how to get tickets to this year's rivalry football game in Pittsburgh.
