Oklahoma’s CeeDee Lamb will not play against Baylor, per OU radio broadcast

Oklahoma will be without its best player against Baylor as CeeDee Lamb will be on the sideline for the entire game.

No. 10 Oklahoma (8-1, 5-1) will be without its best player against No. 13 Baylor (9-0, 6-0) after all.

The Sooners and Bears game has kicked off, with star receiver CeeDee Lamb not having his helmet. Soon after, the Oklahoma radio broadcast confirmed an earlier report that Lamb was questionable is now out for the game against Baylor.

The junior receiver went through warmups ahead of the game and looked to be ready to play. Lamb was fully dressed, going though drills and stretches 100 percent and even said “I’m good” to fans exiting after warmups.

His injury has not been announced by the team.

Lamb has been Lincoln Riley’s big play and go-to receiver all season. Lamb has 983 receiving yards on 44 receptions, good for 22.3 yards a catch, and has hauled in 13 touchdowns.

Many of those touchdowns were short hitch routes that Lamb housed by breaking tackles and then evading an entire defense. He has truly been Oklahoma’s best offense since the season kicked off against Houston.

The Sooners and Bears are tied up at zero as the game just kicked off.

Oklahoma’s CeeDee Lamb going through warmups, says he is ‘good’

Oklahoma may have had its first break of tonight’s game against Baylor as it looks like CeeDee Lamb is healthy and ready to go.

No. 10 Oklahoma (8-1, 5-1) may have had its first break of tonight’s game against No. 13 Baylor (9-0, 6-0).

Star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb was reportedly ‘questionable’ for tonight’s game against Baylor. He is fully dressed out, going through initial warmups and is now out with the team in pregame stretches. By all accounts, Oklahoma’s best player is ready to go tonight.

As he was heading off the field earlier, he told some fans he was “good” with a smile on his face.

The junior has been Lincoln Riley’s big play and go-to receiver all season. Lamb has 983 receiving yards on 44 receptions, good for 22.3 yards a catch, and has hauled in 13 touchdowns.

Many of those touchdowns were short hitch routes that Lamb housed by breaking tackles and then evading an entire defense. He has truly been Oklahoma’s best offense since the season kicked off against Houston.

The Sooners and Baylor are set to kickoff at 6:30 p.m. CT on ABC.

Oklahoma’s Adrian Ealy going through warmups ahead of Baylor game

Oklahoma is getting good news ahead of its big matchup with Baylor as one of its starting offensive lineman looks to be ready to go.

No. 10 Oklahoma (8-1, 5-1) is getting good news on the injury front ahead of tonight’s game against No. 13 Baylor (9-0, 6-0).

As the initial warmups started for Saturday night’s game, starting right tackle Adrian Ealy ran out and participated in the initial offensive line drills with the rest of the offensive lineman. Ealy got hurt in the Iowa State a week ago and exited the game.

Head coach Lincoln Riley said on Monday that he did not know about his right tackle’s status. Offensive line coach Bill Bedenbaugh did not confirm or update his status at Tuesday’s media availability.

Oklahoma has had a mix of offensive line units already this season as Ealy and others have missed time. If he were not to go, Bedenbaugh confirmed on Tuesday that Virginia grad transfer R.J. Proctor would slide into the starting offensive line unit.

The Sooners and Baylor will kickoff at 6:30 p.m. CT on ABC.

Oklahoma’s CeeDee Lamb questionable against Baylor, per report

Unfortunate news has hit prior to Oklahoma’s game against Baylor as the Sooners’ best player is questionable to play tonight.

The Sooners offense may be jeopardy tonight.

No. 10 Oklahoma (8-1, 5-1) star receiver—maybe the best receiver in college football—CeeDee Lamb is questionable for the primetime, nationally televised matchup against No. 13 Baylor (9-0, 6-0), according to a report from George Stoia of the OU Daily.

Lamb has been Lincoln Riley’s big play and go-to receiver all of the season. The junior has 983 receiving yards on 44 receptions, good for 22.3 yards a catch, and has hauled in 13 touchdowns.

Many of those touchdowns were short hitch routes that Lamb housed by breaking tackles and then evading an entire defense.

This is his first game to miss since his freshman season.

Oklahoma and Baylor will kickoff at 6:30 p.m. CT on ABC.

Lee Corso teases Oklahoma, chooses Baylor on College Gameday

The College Gameday crew finished with a lopsided decision in front of a rowdy Waco crowd on Saturday morning.

The College Gameday crew finished with a lopsided decision in front of a rowdy Waco crowd on Saturday morning, as two picked Baylor to win tonight to Oklahoma’s one.

Lee Corso teased Oklahoma before swapping to Baylor’s Bear mascot head in front of a roaring crowd.

“Oklahoma is a 10-point favorite. Oklahoma is No. 2 in the nation in scoring offense. Oklahoma is 25-3 versus Baylor, this is an easy pick, Oklahoma!” Corso said before the late bait-and-switch. He handed his celebrity pickers each a Bear head before throwing one on himself.

Former Heisman winner Desmond Mason chose first, citing Oklahoma’s recent struggles, but picked the Sooners, saying that “tonight, the Sooners will finish.”

Kirk Herbstreit didn’t pick, as he is calling the game tonight.

Former Fixer Upper stars Chip and Joanna Gaines were the celebrity pickers of the week, and went with their alma mater, Baylor.

No 10 Oklahoma and No. 13 Baylor will kick off at 6:30 p.m.
