West Virginia football season ticket sales are pacing closely to what unfolded at this time during the 2019 off-season according to officials.

There have been around 20,500 season tickets sold which puts that total around 1,000 behind where the program was at in 2019 at this time according to Matt Wells, the Senior Associate Athletic Director for External Affairs at West Virginia.

But that number is expected to increase as officials are completing the optional seat selection process.

West Virginia will have six home games this season including the Sept. 18 renewal of the Battle for the Black Diamond Trophy against Virginia Tech. It will be the first time the two programs have met in Morgantown since the 2005 campaign. That game is set for noon.

The other non-conference home contest will be a matchup with FCS opponent Long Island. That game is set for 5 p.m. Sept. 11 and will serve as the home opener.

As for the conference portion of the schedule, West Virginia will host Texas Tech (Oct. 2), Iowa State (Oct. 30), Oklahoma State (Nov. 6) and Texas (Nov. 20). The Texas Tech game has been identified as the Homecoming matchup, while Oklahoma State will serve as the Mountaineer Week game.
