Backyard Brawl extended

[GreatBear71]

Pitt and West Virginia are beginning a 4 game series with Pitt hosting WVU in 2022 and 2024. West Virginia host Pitt in 2023 and 2025.
After a 3 yr break, another 4 game series inked for 2029, 30, 31, and 32. At Pitt in 29 and 31, and at WVU in 30 and 32. This should ease the pressure for Penn State to have to play Pitt.

I wish PSU played Pitt every year. Just like I am glad that Texas and A&M will likely play each other once more.
Natural rivalries the best.

I wouldn't mind a WVU series either. In fact, would prefer that over Pitt. In many ways, a PSU game validates Pitt's program and helps them.

The "Backyard Brawl" is the ultimate white trash rivalry.

Yup, the series with them the next couple years will be a lot of fun. Perhaps with the ACC-PAC 12 alliance we'll get stuck with Pitt every so often. Would much rather play Clemson, Florida State, Miami, Va Tech, UNC

I hope Pitt and Penn State never play again unless every game is at Beaver Stadium. What they did in the last couple series with gouging ticket prices for Penn State fans was ridiculous we have enough trouble with our administration throwing money away we don’t need to be funding Pitts athletic department as well.

By the way did you see ESPN has pit ranked ninth going in to the fall. Can’t wait till their preseason top 10 ranking ends up being an under 500 season.

Iowa vs Tennessee would fill that rivalry

We play enough MAC level teams. We play Central Michigan and Ohio this season. We don't need to add a team like pitt.

I’ll give the perspective of a Pitt fan: I don’t care whether it’s Penn State or West Virginia, but I’d like a rivalry game on the schedule annually. Looking forward to playing the Mountaineers… maybe we can get it moved to Thanksgiving weekend eventually?

Going to away games at Morgantown will suck for them

It won’t be much different from their home games in Pittsburgh which will be mostly WVU fans too.

Should be held on a rock strewn lot surrounded by dilapidated house trailers with broken down cars and appliances
