West Virginia football fans eligible for early access can now lock in 2026 mini packages, single-game tickets and parking through the Mountaineer Ticket Office.
The sale is open first to 2026 Mountaineer Athletic Club members and WVU football season ticket holders, who must log in to their WVUGAME.com account before making a purchase.
The return of the Pick-Your-Own mini pack gives fans a flexible three-game option. Buyers can select two games from Oklahoma State, Arizona, Kansas and Houston, then add the Cincinnati game.
The package starts at $190 plus fees, with tickets assigned to the best available seats in the chosen price level. Fans will not be able to pick specific seats from a seat map, and locations may change from game to game while staying within that price range.
Single-game tickets are also available for all home dates and for West Virginia’s road games at Iowa State, TCU, Texas Tech and Utah. The only road matchup excluded is Virginia at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, N.C., which is part of the Duke's Mayo Classic.
MAC members and season ticket holders who want tickets for that game against Virginia can request them now through their WVUGAME.com account. The deadline to request tickets is July 24.
There is also a special package for the UT Martin game, which has been set as Coca-Cola Family Day. Each package includes four tickets and a $25 concession voucher, with prices starting at $150 depending on seat location.
Fans can also buy single-game parking in the Gold Lot. Group rates for parties of 20 or more are available by contacting the Mountaineer Ticket Sales and Service team at 1-304-293-8424, since those discounts are not offered online.
MAC members who are not season ticket holders and want to join the West Virginia football season ticket base can purchase season tickets as well.
Tickets, mini packages and parking will open to the general public on Friday, July 10 at 10 a.m.

BYU Just Landed In The Middle Of A Wild Big 12 Debate
A recent On3 Coaches Poll offered a pretty clear snapshot of how wide open the Big 12 feels heading into the season, and BYU came out as the choice most coaches trusted to win the conference. That alone says plenty about the leagues balance of power, especially with Texas Tech, Utah, Houston, Arizona and Iowa State also drawing support in a vote that seemed to spread confidence around rather than concentrate it.
For West Virginia fans, the broader takeaway is familiar: there is no consensus answer in this league, only a cluster of teams with enough talent and intrigue to keep the conversation moving. The poll underscored just how unpredictable the Big 12 can be from year to year, with coaches clearly seeing a conference where the title race could tilt in several directions before it ever reaches the finish line.

Rich Rod Just Said What Frustrated WVU Fans Have Wanted Heard
West Virginias place in the Big 12 has long come with a built-in headache: the travel, the geography and the sense that the Mountaineers are often fighting uphill just to keep old regional ties alive. At Big 12 Media Day, Rich Rodriguez leaned into that frustration and put a cleaner frame around what many WVU fans have been saying for years, pushing for a future realignment built around regional groupings that would make the league feel a little more like home.
Rodriguez also floated a broader fix for the sports money problem, arguing that Power Four schools should pool TV revenue into one large package and spread it more evenly. The idea fits the same theme as the regional reset, but it is still more vision than reality, with the current conference and media setup unlikely to change quickly and the bigger college football revenue model still very much an open question.

WVU Is Making One Last Exception For Pat Whites No. 5
West Virginia is planning a long-awaited salute to Pat Whites No. 5, with a ceremony set for Sept. 5, 2026, during the season opener against Coastal Carolina. The tribute will come as part of a White Out, giving the program a fitting stage to recognize one of its most iconic quarterbacks while finally moving toward an official jersey retirement.
The timing, though, comes with one last wrinkle before the number is taken out of circulation. Head coach Rich Rodriguez announced the plan, and the university has opted to delay the formal retirement for another season, leaving one more chapter to play out before No. 5 is permanently set aside.
