WVU Football Sets Season Ticket Record, Backyard Brawl Sold Out

West Virginia University football has set a new season ticket record for the 2025 season, selling out 33,634 tickets, the highest since joining the Big 12 Conference in 2012. The excitement is heightened by the return of Rich Rodriguez as head coach, with the 108th Backyard Brawl against Pitt also officially sold out. The game carries special significance as it marks a full circle moment for Rodriguez, whose last game coaching WVU was a loss to Pitt in 2007 that ended their national championship hopes. Despite the sellouts, single-game tickets remain available for other home and away games throughout the season. The strong fan response reflects high anticipation for the Mountaineers' upcoming season under Rodriguez’s leadership. Fans can purchase remaining single-game tickets through official channels and marketplaces.
