Compared to who?
If you're talking Notre Dame or Texas or Oklahoma or Georgia then, sure, those schools would draw more viewers than WVU.
If you're comparing WVU to a third of the ACC (i.e., BC, Syracuse, Pitt, Wake, Louisville and Duke for everything but men's hoops), or to non-P5 schools like UConn, Cincy, UCF or Tulane, WVU will draw more. People make the mistake of evaluating viewership of WVU based on the population of West Virginia. The reality is that WVU's immediate footprint also includes western Pennsylvania and western Maryland and WVU draws better on a national level than most other comparable schools.
