That means that Jayden Daniels, returning from a hamstring injury of his own, is set to be without his top receiver. That could put Deebo Samuel Sr. in for more work, as well as a continued role for second-year WR Luke McCaffrey — brother of star running back Christian McCaffrey — who has been coming on as of late.

The Sooners and Vols have each suffered big losses in the trenches already. After his 71-yard scoop and score, Oklahoma defensive lineman R Mason Thomas entered the injury tent with a hamstring injury, according to the ABC broadcast. He did return for the next Tennessee possession, which resulted in a Max Gilbert field goal.
