Milan Puskar Stadium Left Off EA Sports' Top 25 Toughest Places to Play List

West Virginia has to earn its way back into one of the most challenging places to play in college football.

Throughout its history, Mountaineer Field at Milan Puskar Stadium has been a challenging place for opponents to play. West Virginia fans get loud, a little crazy, and make the hills of West Virginia shake on third downs and in big moments.

In recent years, the atmosphere hasn't been quite the same, but then the on-field product had a lot to do with that. There were very few games where WVU had a legit shot to knock off a top team at home, but even in the early stages of those games, the stadium was rocking.

EA Sports recently released the top 25 toughest places to play for their new video game, College Football 26, and as expected, Milan Puskar Stadium is not featured. There are a few venues at the bottom of the ranking that are questionable, but until WVU gets back to being a team that takes care of business at home on a regular basis, the trip to Morgantown won't be considered among the most daunting in college football.
