The Sooners have suffered yet another major blow to their injury roster when they revealed that one of their players has a career-ending injury and has been….
The Oklahoma Sooners, who are ranked 12th, have performed admirably all season long. They are getting ready for Thursday’s Valero Alamo Bowl matchup against the 14th-ranked Arizona Wildcats.
The Sooners came into this game with a number of injuries. However, since there is nearly a month between Oklahoma’s last regular season game and the Alamo Bowl, let’s examine the team’s injury report in more detail. Here, we’ll find out their current situation before this match.
Before the Alamo Bowl, the Oklahoma Sooners have an injury report. sk-college-ranking-player-img sk-college-ranking-logo-img 2024 Future Stars in College Football: 🌟🏈 See Complete Rankings
Marcus Major, Senior Running Back This season, Marcus Major has been among the Oklahoma Sooners’ best options at running back. But since the UCF Knights game on October 21, he has been sidelined due to a shoulder injury.
The offense will suffer a significant setback as a result of his inability to participate in the Alamo Bowl.
In addition to 12 catches for 75 yards (6.3 yards per reception) and another touchdown, Major has logged 78 rushing attempts for 308 yards (3.9 yards per carry) with one touchdown.
Andrél Anthony, Broadcaster
Due to a season-ending knee injury that required surgery, junior wide receiver Andrew Anthony has missed time since the Red River Rivalry game. That obviously means Anthony is out of this game as well. That’s unfortunate because this was his best season as an offensive player.
With 27 receptions for 429 yards (15.9 yards per catch) and a touchdown, he will finish his junior year strong. It’s still a major blow to the offense even though the Sooners spent the entire second half of the season figuring out a game plan without Anthony.
Tight End Kaden Helms
Kaden Helms, a rookie tight end, is another offensive injury suffered by the Oklahoma Sooners. Like Anthony, he was sidelined for the entire college football season due to a knee injury.
Since the 2022 season, Helms has not made an appearance in a game. Helms was only able to complete a 4-yard reception before being declared out of the Sooners’ offensive game plan, meaning he did not get to play a significant part in the offense in even his first season.
