NORMAN, Okla. -- At one point not long ago, the game between No. 4 Oklahoma and West Virginia would have featured one of the best quarterback matchups in college football.
But the matchup won't be between Baker Mayfield and Will Grier.
Instead, Oklahoma (10-1, 7-1 Big 12) will start Kyler Murray at quarterback after Mayfield, the Heisman Trophy favorite, was stripped of his captaincy for the game and benched for the start of the contest following last week's crotch-grabbing, profanity-laced tirade directed toward the Kansas sideline.
The Mountaineers (7-4, 5-3) will start Chris Chugunov at quarterback after Grier suffered a finger and hand injury diving for the pylon in last week's game against Texas.
