MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — West Virginia will once again close its football season out on a Friday.
The Big 12 announced Thursday that WVU’s 2020 regular-season finale at Iowa State will be played on Friday, Nov. 27. A game time has not yet been released. The game was originally scheduled to be played on Saturday.
Television selections for the first three weeks of the season and any non-Saturday dates, including this game, are due to the Big 12 Conference by June 1.
This will be the third straight year the Mountaineers close out the season the day after Thanksgiving. West Virginia had a Friday night home finale against Oklahoma in 2018, and ended the year with a Friday afternoon game at TCU last season.
The Mountaineers will aspire to have something at stake for this year’s finale after falling short of a bowl appearance in Neal Brown’s first season. Iowa State has won the past two games in the series with West Virginia.
