Why Penn State-West Virginia Game Was Canceled? Exploring the reason and latest update

Fans who were watching "Fox Big Noon Saturday" and watched the first half of the eighth-ranked Penn State Nittany Lions and the West Virginia Mountaineers were greeted with the game being suspended before the second half began. There are a lot of questions people are asking about the status of the game so let's take a closer look at what happened and what fans should expect.

Why Penn State-West Virginia Game was Suspended/Canceled

The game between the Nittany Lions and the Mountaineers was suspended due to the threat of severe weather. Instead of playing the second half, they are attempting to wait out the storm and resume the game after the storm has passed. The game is expected to continue once lightning is no longer in the area.

What happens to Penn State-West Virginia tickets if game is canceled?

If the game is not able to continue and is canceled, it will create a big issue with tickets. While it would be up to the University of West Virginia and their ticketing policy, expect that the fans who purchased tickets for this game to be able to return for the game's conclusion. However, the likelihood of this coming to fruition is slow as the game is currently sitting in a delay.

Will the Penn State-West Virginia Game be Rescheduled After the Suspension

The game is not expected to be rescheduled for another day or week. Instead, the Penn State Nittany Lions and the West Virginia Mountaineers are waiting for the storm to officially pass and the lightning to leave the area.

The delay could be however long it needs to be as both teams are going to have the second half of this game completed on Saturday rather than trying to find a common time to complete it.

This is certainly not a new issue as stadiums with no roofs such as Mountaineer Field at Milan Puskar Stadium are subject to situations like this at any time. Do not be surprised if this game is delayed for a while and concludes later in the day to avoid any ticketing or traveling issues.
