⚡ CFB Dashboard

- Intel: We're about 22 hours out from OU's kickoff and I'm already pissed off thinking about Ben Arbuckle's lack of commitment to the running game and BV's refusal to chew Arbuckle's a** out for it

- Cover 3 reports that Oklahoma's Kip Lewis left with a leg injury during the Michigan game. The excerpts provide no diagnosis, recovery timetable or confirmation of his next-game availability; the hosts are not consistent about which leg was affected. - The hosts see Oklahoma's defense as strong enough to keep games competitive, but describe the offense and quarterback decision-making as the limiting factors. That is an analyst's assessment of a narrow path against strong opponents, not a new quarterback change or a betting recommendation.

- Injury: I understand they made the CFP last year, and I’m not discounting that.

- Injury: The jokes (or are they?) about the player being in dire condition every time someone gets injured grow tiresome (speaking only for myself, of course).

- Injury: I wouldn't be surprised if Midtier has another injury with the way they are using him, how long he holds on to the ball, and the O-line not being able to pass block

- Injury: Their starting QB is out for the season.

- Injury: Oklahoma received some encouraging news on linebacker Kip Lewis after he suffered a knee injury in Saturday's 17-10 loss at Michigan.

- Injury: I don't even really remember hearing OU seriously courting him.

- Injury: George, the truth is most people have nothing of substance to add to the conversation but insults.

- Injury: Kip Lewis will "miss some time." Here's what it means for Oklahoma's linebacker rotation

- Injury: For two straight years Mateer has had guys open but he doesn't see them or he throws a terrible ball.

- Before Oklahoma's Michigan game, Jake Maikkula dressed and warmed up snapping to quarterback John Mateer and was expected to start at center after a knee injury had sidelined him since the first fall scrimmage. Caleb Nitta was the backup, with starting right guard Noah Best also an option at center. - Oklahoma tackle Michael Fasusi dressed but did not warm up because of a shoulder injury; the report expected him not to play except possibly in an emergency. Ryan Fodje, also returning after missing the opener, was projected at left tackle alongside Eddy Pierre-Louis, Maikkula, Best and E'Marion Harris. - Oklahoma backs Tory Blaylock, recovering from a hamstring injury, and Jonathan Hatton Jr., dealing with a minor ankle injury, both warmed up. Lloyd Avant took the first reps with Mateer, followed by Xavier Robinson; Blaylock and Hatton worked with Whitt Newbauer. These were pregame availability and rotation observations, not confirmed game snap counts. - Oklahoma's pregame rotation pointed to Adepoju Adebawore starting opposite Taylor Wein, with Danny Okoye dressed and expected to return after missing the opener. Trent Wilson and Bishop Thomas were the first defensive tackles behind David Stone and Jayden Jackson in warmups. - Late Oklahoma transfers Danny Saili, Braxton Fely and Jaydon Southard were on the road-game roster and warming up, with the report expecting all three to be available. Defensive back D'Yoni Hill was absent from the roster supplied to media; that observation alone did not establish an injury or definitive reason for his absence.
