(10/19) Peterson Wait and See, Cooper at Center, Injuries and Articles
Oklahoma Football Notes and Articles
Peterson is wait and see game: Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said a decision on Adrian Peterson availability for Baylor won't be made until Thursday. He wants to see how Peterson practices before fully evaluating his status. "And I'm not playing here with that," Stoops said. "I think it's been obvious, we've tried to play him. And like I said, when you get into game speed and really need to push off and make a game-type cut, when it comes to that, he has been a little more tender than he thought he would be. Stoops was asked if he was delaying the decision to make sure Baylor has to prepare for the Sooners with Peterson factoring into the gameplan. "(Baylor) would have to answer that," Stoops said. "I don't know that it would change their thought-process a whole lot. Like we have been, we're going to work towards and do our best to have him ready." (Norman Transcript)
Wilson would like to play Cooper at Center: Wilson said he'd like to play true freshman Jon Cooper at center more, but he's not wanting to create potential problems with the center-quarterback exchange. OU had problems earlier this season with fumbled snaps. Cooper has played at center and right guard. But senior Chris Bush has been at center since the Kansas State game on Oct. 1 and has not had problems with the snap. (NewsOK.com)
Injury updates: Stoops said he expects receiver Travis Wilson (ankle), guard Davin Joseph (neck), safety Lewis Baker (dizziness) and cornerback Marcus Walker (knee) to all practice this week. He said cornerback Eric Bassey (thigh) “is closer” to returning and “there’s a decent chance he could play,” but center Chris Chester (knee) is out. (Norman Transcript)
