This is a possible look ahead spot for the West Virginia Mountaineers with Purdue on deck, but there’s no doubt they’re the better side here by a decent margin. The Penn Quakers have lacked offensive depth through 4 games, and that West Virginia pressure defense usually does the opponent no favors. Somebody not named Jordan Dingle has to step up for the Quakers. Give me WVU in a comfortable home victory.
