CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Oklahoma's Samaje Perine rattles teeth, opens eyes and invokes bad memories in would-be tacklers who are left to adjust their helmets and soothe aching muscles.

Perine did all that a year ago, when the 243-pound tank ran for 242 yards and scored four touchdowns in a win over the Mountaineers.

West Virginia defenders are expecting more of the same punishment while hoping to limit Perine's output when the 23rd-ranked Mountaineers and 15th-ranked Sooners meet Saturday in Norman, Oklahoma.
