MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Lots of gold in the stands and on the uniforms as No. 9 West Virginia hosts Kansas today. Live updates throughout the game.
Pregame notes
— As MetroNews first reported, strong safety Toyous Avery (doubtful) is not with the DBs during warmups.
— Two weeks ago, offensive lineman Isaiah Hardy was ticketed for a redshirt. Today he’s listed as the starter at right guard. (Joe Wickline — MAD SCIENTIST!!!!) Chase Behrndt, a starter the past three games, has been demoted — apparently for his second-half struggles at Texas Tech, and not for that run of five successive consonants in his surname.
