Why Oklahoma's Kyler Murray has beef with Longhorns' Sam Ehlinger heading into Big 12 championship meeting

AUSTIN - For the record, Texas quarterback Sam Ehlinger had no problem talking about the game of Oklahoma counterpart Kyler Murray.

"I'd absolutely l love to comment on that,” Ehlinger said, surrounded by reporters Tuesday. “I absolutely respect his game."

Murray wasn’t exactly as forthcoming Monday during Oklahoma’s media availability. A week after praising Alabama quarterback and Heisman rival Tua Tagovailoa, Murray struck a different tone.

Asked how much he respected Ehlinger’s game, Murray laughed at the podium: “I have no comment about that.”

The Tuesday story was the history the two have going into the Big 12 Championship Game at AT&T Stadium on Saturday.
