West Virginia enters the game with a 9-3 record and are Co-Champions of the Big East Conference. The Mountaineers were hurt in their quest for the Big East's BCS bid with October losses to [[2010 UConn Huskies football team|UConn]] and [[2010 Syracuse Orange football team|Syracuse]]. WVU's strength lies in their defense, which ranks 2nd nationally in points allowed and 3rd in yards allowed. The Mountaineers have appeared in eight straight bowl games and were defeated in last year's [[2010 Gator Bowl|Gator Bowl]] by Florida State 33-21. West Virginia has played in the bowl on one previous occasion, in [[1995]], when it was known as the [[Carquest Bowl]] and was played in Miami.
NC State entered the bowl with an overall record of 8-4. The Wolfpack attempted to win a bowl game for the first time in coach Tom O’Brien’s four seasons in Raleigh. NC State played in the [[Papajohns.com Bowl]] in his second season but lost to [[Rutgers Scarlet Knights football|Rutgers]], 29-23. The strength of the Wolfpack was in their passing game, ranked number 19 in the country. NC State has appeared in the bowl three previous times, first in 1998 when the game was known as the MicornPC Bowl and was played in [[Miami, Florida]], and then in 2001 and 2003 when it was played in Orlando but was called the Tangerine Bowl.


The two schools have played each other nine times previously, with WVU holding a 5-4 advantage, though they have not played since 1979. This was the third time that they have played in a bowl game, having played in the 1972 and 1975 [[Peach Bowl]]s. The bowl series between NC State and West Virginia is split, 1-1: the Wolfpack won the 1972 contest 49-13, and the Mountaineers won 13-10 in 1975.
