The Oklahoma Sooners and the LSU Tigers will each be looking to finish the season on a high note on Saturday night in Baton Rouge.
Oklahoma is coming off of a dominant win over the Alabama Crimson Tide, where the defense shut down the rushing attack of Jalen Milroe and the Tide. The Sooners put together a strong rushing effort behind the best performance of the season from the offensive line.
LSU snapped a three-game losing streak in their 24-17 win over Vanderbilt. The Tigers have been trying to find more balance from their offense and did so behind a strong rushing effort from Josh Williams, who ran for 90 yards and two touchdowns. Garrett Nussmeier recorded his seventh 300-yard passing game of the season in the win.
Oklahoma’s battled injuries all season long but have been able to put together more consistent performances over the last few weeks. But they’ll likely be without another one of their wide receivers as they travel to face the Tigers.
Let’s take a look at the initial injury report for Oklahoma vs. LSU.

Jovantae Barnes Injury Update
Jovantae Barnes has missed the last two games after injuring his ankle against Maine. He looks like he’s tracking to return this week against LSU. With Xavier Robinson’s emergence and Taylor Tatum’s fumble issues, the Sooners will likely lean into Barnes and the true freshman Robinson for their running back snaps.
Brenen Thompson Injury Update
Brenen Thompson made a big play against Alabama to help convert a third down and showed tremendous toughness as a blocker in the run game.
Andrel Anthony Injury Update
Andrel Anthony hasn’t played since Week 1 and it didn’t appear like he’d be available this year. However, he’s been upgraded from out the last few months to questionable for this Saturday night against LSU.
Caiden Woullard Injury Update
Oklahoma will be without veteran defensive end Caiden Woullard this weekend after injuring his knee in the win over Alabama. That will provide more snaps for Adepoju Adebawore this week against LSU.
