The WVU Football team is coming off a hard-fought, 24-20 victory on the road against the Texas Longhorns. Their next matchup, an 8 p.m. kickoff at Milan Puskar Stadium with the Oklahoma Sooners, could decide the winner of the Big 12 Conference. Oklahoma defeated Baylor last week by a score of 45-24 to keep them atop the conference.

West Virginia didn’t get any respect from the College Football Playoff Committee. For the Mountaineers to improve upon their woeful ranking and get a victory against the Sooners, these five players will need to contribute beyond their usual efforts.
