Sooners Illustrated can confirm Pete Thamel's report that Ryan Fodje and Jake Maikkula are both expected to return against Michigan. That has been the expectation throughout the week, as both have been on track to play.
As for Michael Fasusi, sources tell Sooners Illustrated that he is doubtful and unlikely to play Saturday. Fasusi's shoulder injury is considered week-to-week.
With Fasusi unlikely to go, Fodje is expected to slide over to left tackle, while true freshman Noah Best will move to right guard. Maikkula is expected to return at center.
In some additional injury news, Jonathan Hatton has been trending in the right direction over the last two days and did travel with the team. New defensive tackle Braxton Fely also made the trip to Ann Arbor.
Hatton is expected to be available Saturday, which is a big development for Oklahoma's running back room. Tory Blaylock's status has improved and he should be probable on Saturday.
